"Even then, the real work will have to come from politicians." Well if that's true we are in serious trouble!Because,for the most part, politicians do not work for the People. They work for their own self interests. Thankfully Trump is a businessman, not a career politician, but he truly is facing an uphill battle.

Please save us, Washington!

[Jim Robinson]

The solution is to let our people go back to work.

The guy who sells Barbecue at the little wooden shack off of the highway knows more about maintaining the economy than all the journalists who graduated from J schools combined.

No offense to the authors, but this piece is almost a week old and some of its key points are moot.

The "health crisis" in this fiasco is nowhere near a "crisis" of epic proportions. And the economic crisis is driven by panic and hysteria, not any underlying economic trends.

[Red Badger]

The only ones depressed are the Dems and the Mediots.........

[ClearCase_guy]

The Great Depression was handled badly. I think most people who have looked at it agree with that assessment.
Our current situation does not have to be a Great Depression. We really could bounce right back. Unless we’re dumb.

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

I’ve been flamed for saying things are not going to recover like people think they are. In before the zot. China and the Dems own this one.

[cuban leaf]

America? This is global, my friends. And it is self inflicted. H1N1 was more dangerous. It had no impact.

[wny]

government. is. the. problem.

[unixfox]

Yes, let’s put government in charge of EVERYTHING. Because it has worked so well in Cuba, Venezuela, China and other 3rd world shitholes.

Other than military and other critical parts of the government, should be completely shutdown.

[faithhopecharity]

just let people have the jobs back that you politicians took away from them
and the economy will recover

but do it FAST or else its a loser

[butlerweave]

Arrest the MSM and all Democrats ?

[DesertRhino]

Lemme guess... we need to do everything the democrats say?

[DesertRhino]

“To succeed, Washington needs to set aside partisan bickering, xenophobia, and blame-shifting, and pass legislation”

LOL I was right. Setting aside partisan bickering always means repubs must quickly agree to all dem demands. Dems have to give up nothing.

The first depression was orchestrated to get FDR into the White House. He did a lot to damage this country over the years. Talk to people that lived during the 1930s and they’ll tell you that it was bad and stayed bad.

That’s what having a leftist in charge does.

And that’s what the democrats want to do to the country again...

[txrefugee]

Do they still have stocks? Most with their mind set dumped it in February.

[I want the USA back]

The engine of prosperity has been slain, under orders from the government. The government thinks it can restart it by sending money to the folks. Big delusion. Unless people get back to work, it’s Depression, not Recession.

[libertylover]

But one question looms over everything: Are we frightened enough to do what needs to be done?

My guess is no. It seems to me that what really needs to be done is to massively cut wasteful spending. No money for illegals, little to no foreign aid, no money for abortions, no money for … the list is long.

[tomkat]

Yet another screed from apparatchiks at the Ministry for Statist Aggrandizement.

We're from the government and we're here to ensure the FUBAR

[mulligan]

The last thing we need is government. It is a huge part of the mess we are in. We also need less of the media and Dems and liberals. We need to go back to living. Work, school and recreation. People will die if we are open or closed. Opened we have a chance to live, brave and free. Closed we see our nation die and the people become slaves.
