Seems illogical that the US could still exist financially. And yet it does. For months the "contrarian economists" have predicted the 2nd quarter numbers would officially mark the start of a new depression.
Well the numbers are out, and they say the economy grew by 4%. Are the numbers doctored? Maybe they are. That's what the doomonomists have been saying. So where are they right now? Shouldn't they be lighting torches and sharpening pitchforks somewhere?
I feel so disillusioned 😆
I would say this is a good thing. The longer the better as when it does happen, it's gonna hurt us all. There is always more to do and further debt free one can get. Then theres growing your own garden or relocating to a safer hood....just stay on a path of awareness because you'd even feel dumber now to get caught with your pants down when you knew the thing was coming!
Ok, I asked for a contrarian and I got it. Looks like the 4% number is based partly on guesswork, and possibly alot of exaggeration.
Found it! I don't do the stock market thing but had this sent to me from another lately and it starts out answering some of that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7O55X27STs (I got bored about 1/3 of the way through this as fact left and more opinion commenced)
Again, this is not my bag. I wouldn't know if the market is being propped or not. I am sure that the rich can likely play games with those below if they wished to though.
He does mention alot of events occurring in Ukraine and Israel are tied together here though. Also that provocation to war is being presented to the world subtly as an option. I understand enough about the stock market to see the ability to manipulate figures to convince society that all is well. I would hate to track and anaylize data on a daily basis to be able to call BS from the bleachers though. I'll leave that to people who have investments to sort out this aspect.
And just so that I have it straight, are you depressed that we are not yet in a depression??? 😆
