DR. BEN CARSON: It’s very clear that the people in charge of the economics in our administration right now have missed some classes somewhere along the way and don't really seem to understand the basics.

Don't believe your eyes. Don't believe your ears. Just listen to us. We'll tell you what to think. You're not really feeling all this pain that you think you're having. It's actually really quite good. I mean, you got to be a moron to believe that stuff.
