You realize the vast majority of people didn't die of Covid or even get very sick, didn't lose their jobs and saw their investments and home values go through the roof. So it actually ended up fine.

sure, except for the 1.5 million excess deaths and commercial real estate failure. and of course the recession was primarily averted by direct stimulus-- again the velocity of money.

Okay, the fact remains that many many people actually ended up financially ahead after Covid. The doomsday scenarios did not come to pass.

wait, so do you believe the democrats who tried to tell you that the economy was recovering and things were better despite the cost of eggs? or trump who told you that the economy was awful and he was going to fix it day one?

I have more money than I have ever had in my life, and HHI is also currently at a personal high. The price of eggs, while irritating, do not affect me.

You do realize that you have more money in your life because they printed a shit ton of money to keep the economy afloat during covid? In the modern era, they ALWAYS print money in a financial crisis. That's been the playbook since we got out of the Great Depression. This administration seems to want to return to pre-modern times though so things might not recover so quickly this time around.

The government is their biggest client so yes they’re affected. Unless of course it’s one of Musk’s companies.

Verizon just lost a huge contract to Starlink because Musk's SpaceX staff at FAA decided to award the contract to Musk's company.

Lucky for Musk, there is zero conflict of interest here! Otherwise, Musk would have to self report. Phew

+1. My DH is a law firm partner whose clients are the above. Even if some clients leave/shrink/disappear, that's highly unlikely to happen to all of them.

Your husband isn’t telling you what deregulation and lack of enforcement is about to inflict on his law practice.

When regulations change, companies need lawyers to advise them.

Musk is a major Marijuana advocate and user.

Nope. Less money to spend, so people will delay improvements and maintenance.

The PP wants people to believe the sky is falling. It’s not. Sorry you may lose your job but most of us are fine.

Pretty sure that’s PP’s goal, yes. Also pretty sure PP has a job they aren’t worried about losing so this is just some sort of sh&&t-posting for them.

True, but there's also an immigration crackdown. (Not being snarky, just realistic.)

Large public hospital just quietly initiated a RIF today due to “anticipated budget shortfalls.” Not doctors and nurses (yet).
