IN AMERICA: Post hoc ergo propter hoc?

19.03.2024

(OK, I’m going to have a little fun with logic in this article. I’m also going to channel Mrs. Crawford, my old Latin teacher from high school, and use a bit of my Geneva High public education to boot.)

“Gas was $1.20 four years ago! Now Biden’s in office and it’s over 3 bucks a gallon!”

“Inflation was 2% five years ago and now it’s over 3%!”

“The shelves were empty at the grocery stores four years ago, now they’re full!”

I know folks that are all over the political spectrum. Some are Republican, some are Democrat, and a whole bunch are in between. And since they know me to be the kind of guy that likes a good back-and-forth dialogue about politics, they’ll post something on my Facebook page that tells me what they’re thinking about whatever is going on here........
