Sure. But you would need to have asked a question to test this, such as “after 5 years what will the size of the economy that grew at 3 percent be, versus 2 percent?
But yes basic competence is lacking. My biggest peeve is legislation that has a dollar amount not indexed to inflation. It’s basic math competence. You can argue all day about what a dollar quantity should be in order for the law to have the intended effect but if you write a law you need to at least make the quantities have the same meaning they did when the law passed.
