yeah - overly simplistic conclusion.. for example, you do not recognize classes of business activity at all, yet some classes of employer are affected differently or even in the opposite direction; misleading.
- lumost 4y ago> overly simplistic conclusion Dominant first order and second order effects often have simple sounding narratives. Inflation, interest rates, and growth are complex relationships.
