Anyone else feel like the economy is about to crash and burn?

Good job, idiot America

This is a good thing. It needs to happen. A reset. It needs to occur. Yes, there will be widespread economic pain. But the current situation is completely untenable with regards to our national debt and the US dollar as the world reserve currency. The whole thing needs to collapse. It HAS to. And Trump will get ALL the blame for it.

Economic collapse fixes all these problems, allows for a hard-reset which is what is desperately needed, and it will all be seen as Trump’s fault.

Please explain why this is a bad thing? Because your portfolio will be negatively impacted? News flash - everyone is going to lose something. So you’ll still be exactly where you are, relative to everyone else.


Let it burn.

You sound about as ignorant as Rump

Apparently Ford is pulling back on EVs and their plant at Avon has been on indefinite hold. Tech has been slashing jobs left and right. Same for pharma/biotech. So many companies are now outsourcing tons of white collar jobs to India, China, and Eastern Europe where American office job labor can be replaced for a fraction of the cost. I know outsourcing is not new, it it seems like there is a new tidal wave of outsourcing occuring right now because American labor is simply too expensive. We have layoffs and hiring freezes for virtually every sector of the economy now. Add on to it a potential massive amounts of jobs that are going to be slashed in the federal govt and there is basically going to be no more consumer base left soon to buy stuff and keep the economy humming along. We also have all do the uncertainty and inflation pressures due to the never ending trade and tarriff war escalation that is going to put a damper on the economy. It all sums up to a grim outlook, imo. And how exactly is the US going to combat a severe recession? They're blowing up our deficit by$4T more debt due to the proposed tax cuts. Where's the money going to come from when they need to spend even more deficit to combat the recession? Anyone else feel very bad about the economy and where we are headed? I feel like the bottom is going to fall out soon due to all of the jobs losses, and the US is headed for a very bad recession.

Ford is in trouble because they followed Democrats' global warming religion and went all in on electric vehicles.

So did Elon. But with the tariffs and consumer confidence going the way it is, things aren’t looking good, period. Ford is heavy into the very expensive pickup truck game, and we’ve probably hit a ceiling on who is going to buy a $75k truck right now.

The pickup line is not the source of the billions of dollars in losses. If Ford had stayed out of electric vehicles, the company would be in great financial health. However, Biden passed the Inflation Reduction Act and pushed new mileage rules, which encouraged Ford execs to push for electric vehicles. Toyota stayed out.

Toyota is being forced into merger with Honda because it is no longer viable as a stand alone company. Want to try for a better example?

It’s crazy how no one here sees what’s going on with BYD, XPEV and Xiaomi over seas. Like there is this tidal wave of low priced, high quality EVs being sold abroad that are completely fking TSLA and Ford and everyone’s values up and no in America even knows who they are. We are so insulated from world events, much by choice.

You’re not paying attention, the felon is NOT reducing the deficit. He wants to raise the debt ceiling. Read a business paper.

Meanwhile, European stocks are up 17 percent this year. The Hang Seng is up 20 percent. Money has voted and it is leaving the US. There is nothing cyclical about US markets declining. This is 100 percent the result of Republican policies. The rest of the world is decoupling from the US as quickly as possible.

Breathtakingly quickly. We had our chance. We were forgiven for Trump 1.0. Now the world knows who we are.

Isn't Toyota building in the USA anyway? Lexus is Toyota and yes, they do build some of their models here, look it up. It won't matter if a foreign brand as long as it's built here.

The way this economy is going, Trump will never get reelected if he's planning to run again in 2028.

you are such a stupid bunch of sock puppets who have no understanding that Everyone owns everyone else, it's interconnected. Every major world power owns the debt of another one and is also indebted to them. You also hold some of the national debt in the form of Treasury bills. And when it comes to investments into major stocks and currencies and other assets, it's a wild world out there and you have no clue who controls it. Politics and parties simply a veneer. Dems won't save you, they are a part of the same system leading you to this all along. And it's chaos with those who have most assets trying to preserve and acquire more by all means.

No country has as much debt as the United States. China holds most of it. So your blather is incorrect.

You clearly don’t because you wrote this: “But the current situation is completely untenable with regards to our national debt…”

You also don’t acknowledge that Harris’s economic plan wasn’t to blanket tariff, especially of our neighbors and on products we don’t produce. Her plan to curb inflation was to go after price gouging. She also wasn’t going to side with loser Russia and wasn’t going to put Americans out of work at massive scale — all causing a ripple effect that Americans aside from you understand because consumer confidence has dropped to levels not seen for 15 years.

The “failing” Biden economy looks pretty good to me, as it did to the rest of the world. Trump didn’t have to grab the steering wheel and drive it off a cliff. This is a Trump own goal. Harris would’ve left the economy growing at an enviable 3% a year. But no. MAGA wants to relive the Great Depression.

because they don't have tech oligarchs or their own "dark enlightenment"? You are so naive. One of the propaganda techniques on the right was constant fear mongering their sympathizers with the "Gr3at R3set" and "t3chnocracy", and digital IDs and CBDC digital currencies that can be programmed to control what you buy and sell. Complete surveillance and under the skin tech to monitor your every move and physiological readings, etc. Facial recognition everywhere too. Now you are pretending similar is coming with the "sudden" tech oligarchy of 2025 in our country only? hilarious. You dismissed these as conspiracies to come up with your own? And how do other countries get exempt?
