Great Depression –> Herbert Hoover (took a hands off approach thinking market corrects itself)
    1973 recession –> Nixon (ended gold standard which shot the inflation up)
    1980s recession –> Reagan (policy was effective long term, but short term was a shot in the foot)
    Dot com –> Clinton (but i would argue the common man wasn't affected here)
    2008 –> Bush (the common man got f*cked here, negligence by the government due to them being lobbied, corrupt af.)
    Covid –> Trump (eh, can't blame him for this one really)
    Current –> Trump (bro put tarriffs, and waged a war, can't defend him here sorry)

    Even when you look at states, Cali has been doing well for itself and a comparatively good place to live with comparatively less resources. Texas on the other hand with oil wealth has terrible public infrastructure despite them very well having the money to do so…

    Why does Recession always pop up with republican presidents?
