Welcome to “Thursday Numbers!” In case you are a first-time visitor, this is the weekly column where I look at the numbers in the news (in descending order) and provide commentary sometimes sprinkled with sarcasm and humor.

This week’s topics include the Senate Democrats reconciliation package, Super Mario 64, coronavirus numbers, unemployment claims, overdose deaths, poll results, confidence in major U.S. institutions, Cora Neumann, and much more!
