SkyPilot, “Meanwhile, the nation has been in an actual Depression for years.”
ozzymandus, “And don’t ask me, “So what’s your answer?”, because I don’t have one.”
I agree with you both...
Todays unemployment rate, if calculated the same way as during the great depression, would be higher each year since 2008 as anytime during the great depression. And our government has been making it much much worse.
Ronald Reagan said the government isn’t the solution to the problem, the government is the problem. I believe that is the issue now.
There would have an easy fix in 2008, and I believe there still could be an easy fix now.
If they were serious about igniting the economy, they would have removed the heinous taxes and regulations from businesses and individuals. Until this abomination of boat anchor taxes and regulations are removed from businesses and people, then the economy will continue be nothing but stagnate.
When you hear monetary policy, or central bank actions, or some such nonsense; remember it is just a smoke screen to continue illegal, tyrannical, unconstitutional, 3rd world dictatorship marxist policies on the people of the United States of America.
Remove the taxes and regulations from business and people, allow the business and people create and innovate regulation and government free, then you will see the economy take off and the people prosper.
