I work with companies every day.
Nearly all think there is going to be a huge boom in the economy late spring when covid is over. Some are already getting orders. Trump did all the work and Biden will get the credit .

I hope so.......but......when covid is over?

Will it ever be over? We’re told on a regular basis that there are all sorts of new and deadlier strains, from a virus that has a 99.4% survival rate and most of that is without taking any drugs.

The Left needs to keep people scared and thinking about other things, while they do their damage. Wasn’t that the modus operandi of the administration before President Trump? Basically, watch my right hand, while I inflict all the damage with my left.

And even if/when cover is “over”, it will be back in the spring of 2022, in an even more deadly version. They need something to make sure their ‘mail in voting’ operation can work without anyone questioning it, so they can steal even more seats in both the state and federal government.

My boy recently talked with his financial advisor. He believed there's a boom coming once the Covid lid is removed. People haven't been going anywhere - or couldn't - and that money is piling up and will be spent then.

Mixed feelings on that. I remember after WWII ended, a lot of people thought we'd go back into the Depression, forgetting about all that pent up demand and War Bond savings. Sure enough, things blew out. The flip side is all those who lost their jobs or businesses closed. Then we have the "Global Warming" inmates running the asylum.

Wall Street is basically indifferent if they make their money from a growth economy or a redistribution economy. Large elements of Wall Street even favor the latter because it involves a LOT less work.

The problem is that redistribution economy cannot last indefinitely and continue to generate wealth. At some point, the populace will compete vigorously for those redistribution dollars and want to get "everything they are entitled to." Cue up that Joe Namath Medicare advertisement.

When it becomes apparent that rebound growth has come to a halt, the competition for "entitlement dollars" gets even more fierce. At some point, the rank and file works as little as possible to get as many entitlements as possible, particularly when the rewards between the two narrows even further.

That's the dilemma of Bidenomics in a nutshell.
