If the gubmint would shut up and cut spending and taxes, thereby easing the strain on credit markets, and let the economy catch up to the cratering of crude prices, we’d be fine in a couple of months. Meanwhile, where and when needed, there is unenjoyment, and of course, public assistance. Thanks geo.
