Do you remember when Trump said “only I can fix it”? It is time for him to prove it by ordering the country back to work and back to "Normal". Did you detect the sarcasm?

The Normal Economy Is Never Coming Back

As the coronavirus lockdown began, the first impulse was to search for historical analogies—1914, 1929, 1941? As the weeks have ground on, what has come ever more to the fore is the historical novelty of the shock that we are living through. As a result of the coronavirus pandemic, America’s economy is now widely expected to shrink by a quarter. That is as much as during the Great Depression. But whereas the contraction after 1929 stretched over a four-year period, the coronavirus implosion will happen over the next three months. There has never been a crash landing like this before. There is something new under the sun. And it is horrifying.

As recently as five weeks ago, at the beginning of March, U.S. unemployment was at record lows. By the end of March, it had surged to somewhere around 13 percent. That is the highest number recorded since World War II. We don’t know the precise figure because our system of unemployment registration was not built to track an increase at this speed. On successive Thursdays, the number of those making initial filings for unemployment insurance has surged first to 3.3 million, then 6.6 million, and now by another 6.6 million. At the current rate, as the economist Justin Wolfers pointed out in the New York Times, U.S. unemployment is rising at nearly 0.5 percent per day. It is no longer unimaginable that the overall unemployment rate could reach 30 percent by the summer.

Thursday’s news confirms that the Western economies face a far deeper and more savage economic shock than they have ever previously experienced. Regular business cycles generally start with the more volatile sectors of the economy—real estate and construction, for instance, or heavy engineering that depends on business investment—or sectors that are subject to global competition, such as the motor vehicles industry. In total, those sectors employ less than a quarter of the workforce. The concentrated downturn in those sectors transmits to the rest of the economy as a muffled shock.

The coronavirus lockdown directly affects services—retail, real estate, education, entertainment, restaurants—where 80 percent of Americans work today. Thus the result is immediate and catastrophic. In sectors like retail, which has recently come under fierce pressure from online competition, the temporary lockdown may prove to be terminal. In many cases, the stores that shut down in early March will not reopen. The jobs will be permanently lost. Millions of Americans and their families are facing catastrophe.

Trump "I Alone Can Fix it"

A mind blowing account of ridiculousness - Trump acapella deep house mix. Take a listen and share it with your own common sense.

You do realize that the same people who voted for Trump will be energized to vote for him again by this song. It powerfully reassures them that he can really do what he says, if only those Democrats and the media would stop nay-saying. I would believe, too, but only if Trump successfully orders America back to work, back to normal. He doesn't have the courage to give those orders. He sure won't take responsibility for the deaths that follow. Not my responsibility he has said.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

Does that mean you don't approve of what Trump's doing?



Yup.

The only difference between my disapproval and these two faggots is that I'm not spewing some shill Lefty Legacy Media TDS talking points when I say it.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

I just want to point out how seriously America has become a service economy. All those non-essential jobs? They're non-essential service work like wait-staffing, car-driving, cold-calling etc ... and gig work. They're make-work.

Covid-19 has revealed a lot of the booby-traps of our economy. Aside from moving our production overseas, long supply chains, and the fragility of 'just-in-time' thinking, the hollowness of our infrastructure, and the literal bankruptcy of the financial system, it's revealed the irrelevance of many jobs. That's what COVID-19 has revealed.

Yup. No shit, sherlock.

You like digging up old posts. Why don't you dig up the one we had a year or two ago where we were discussing overpopulation and I was saying exactly that. I didn't need a fake media driven panic over a hardly dangerous virus to tell me that.

Not only are there already far too many people for the planet to provide for, but most of our existences are merely superfluous to boot.

Nothing has changed now except for the fact that our current circumstances have clued a bunch of idiots into the truth that I've already known for a long time.



And yanno what? If you and I notice it here, how many of the big brains and powerful people at the top of the food chain that look at us as nothing but numbers have noticed it too?


Do Right, Be Right. :)

And?

It would be nice if you could follow a train of thought without jumping the tracks.

The US isn't a service economy BECAUSE there are too many people in the US. The US isn't a service economy BECAUSE there are too many people on the planet. COVID-19 has nothing at all to do with the US being a service economy except the virus put the number of already existing non-essential jobs in the spotlight. The lack of productive jobs in the US economy doesn't make people superfluous, there certainly is more than enough productive work that needs to be done. And the overpopulation 'truth' that you've recently clued into has been thought about, known about, talked about, written about, and read about by millions of people since 1798, making your insight minuscule and rather late, and you not very special.

That's the point, Princess.

Very, very few people are special.


Those that will institute Agenda 2030 probably will not agree with your idea that people without jobs to do aren't superfluous. They certainly aren't going to start paying everyone without jobs $600 per week to do nothing for long either.

Do Right, Be Right. :)
