Predictions?!?! Unless we get back to work to produce and consume ...

we're going into a recession. How hard is that to understand? You think there's a magic GDP wand that makes it all better. We need to restore confidence in America.

You think this is some effing political game. People's livelihoods are at stake and Trump is failing miserably. People like you take for granted how the economy works.

I'm worried about getting out of this economic tailspin. You're worried about protecting your ego on an anonymous message board. You're the same poster who had no concerns about the economy in an election year ... as I was the exact opposite. How are you feeling now?

Granted, no one could have predicted the economic magnitude of this external shock ... but the markets are still down big with still a lot of uncertainty. If a lot of Americans were like you and believed the economy would be fine in 2020 ... think of how much value was destroyed in main street.
