“Count me in that group. It’s a depression.”
It’s a needless, government induced and sustained depression. Government needs to get out of the way and let the economy stabilize and recover. Millions of people making decisions on how and where to allocate their resources will do a better job than a handfull of bureaucrats who would otherwise be unemployed if they didn’t have the economy to play with.
Yep - they’ve created structural unemployment in the U.S. - in no time at all. Nothing they plan to do is even remotely what a reasonable person would do to change course.
