Your solution

@HoraceGreenley The fuel of the recession? Lol

@Elessar The economy was great under Trump. 6% GDP growrh, inflation under 2% and oil was $39/barrel. Gas was $2.39/gallon in the US.

What's not to like?

@HoraceGreenley Yes genius, because the demand for fuel was mostly nil. You know, when people were being thrown into the COVID meat grinder running in full force, most fuel-consuming activities were reduced to the bare minimum.

Don't they teach about Demand-Supply in American schools?

Ah and the U.S. economy went to sh*t under Trump, biggest GDP drop since 1946 in Q1/2020 remember?

@Elessar Covid didn’t happen until his 3rd year in office. Horace is correct that the economy was running smoothly until then. Even economists were surprised .

@AthrillatheHunt Why are you confusing the discussion with facts! People were starving in the streets when Trump was in office. Now, Putin is controlling our economy.

@HoraceGreenley come on now. Operation warp speed orange man printed trillions for "stimulous". Hes just as parasitic as the rest. If he was a "hero" and not just playing the mainstream right like a fiddle he would criticise and legislate against fractional reserve banking

@LeeInTheNorthWoods I forgot about the millions of starving people. Plse forgive me. .

@gol979 Less than 2% inflation, 6% GDP growth and oil was $39/bbl. When Trump left office. Sounds pretty damn good to me.

@AthrillatheHunt Almost because the effects of policy changes require years before being felt in the economy itself. I don't even want to know who are these "economists" who were surprised.

@Elessar Not so with Herr Biden. He ruined the US economy in a matter of months.

@Elessar the whole reason the media attacked Orange over his personality traits or behaviors was bc they couldn’t complain about the economy while he was president.
I suppose you don’t remember any economists predicting a depression under Orange either .

@AthrillatheHunt Like Paul Krugman

@AthrillatheHunt Good point...acts are more important than words

@AthrillatheHunt The whole reason everyone attacked that idiot over its idiotic trait is because the idiocy was evident and immediately tangible.

Anyone with a bare understanding of economics, let alone those for whom economics is a profession, could predict with mathematic certainty that the consequence of printing money as if there wasn't a tomorrow, along with bailing out corporates with said money when the Republicans suddenly embraced (elitist) socialism, would've led to inflation.

They literally teach it in the first high school, under you know "why couldn't we fix poverty by printing more money or lifting taxes?"

@Elessar it wasn’t Orange who gave billions to bail out Wall Street dude .

@AthrillatheHunt https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CARES_Act

What is this? 2.2 trillions aren't exactly pennies 😝

@Elessar @AthrillatheHunt "my parasite raped me gentler than your parasite"......thats your debate. We dont need these bottom feeders

@AthrillatheHunt No... That was Bush..😷

@gol979 Move to south Italy and see by yourself how well a "light government" or even "no government at all" place works like

(I suggest bringing a bulletproof vest or two)

@Elessar "humans are gross and need government to direct them. Without government we just start murdering people". Come on, 99% of politicians are corrupt and serve the uber rich and conglomerates at the expense of the 99.9%. Its like youve got stockholm syndrome or cannot fathom an alternative

@gol979 As I said, Scampia (Naples) is your ideal utopian government-less society. Why haven't you moved there yet?

@Elessar what you are implying is that without this version of government the human race would devour itself. Now that doesnt stack up at all. You are worshipping insane government and an insane system. You might need the veneer of government to shield you from your own darkness but most others would be happier and live a more fruitful life without

@gol979 it’s like trying to quantify evil. Lol

@whowasthatmaskedman which one bailed out Wall Street ?

@gol979 I'm not implying anything, I'm asking why you haven't moved yet to some place where the government is virtually inexistent, coherently with what you believe in, instead of complaining about the existence of a government from within the safety of civilized society.
