      A recession is when your neighbor loses their job.

      A depression is when you lose yours.

    Americans’ opinions are pretty stupid. The same people with a low opinion of the economy could also have a good chance at having a positive opinion of trump’s tariff wars, trump’s war in the Middle East, trump’s destruction of US foreign influence hobbling our ability to obtain favorable trade, trump’s tax cuts for the wealthy, and so much more that has a negative impact on our lives.

    They are incredibly myopic and selfish.

    I’m not a fan of this “economy” thing.

    If it were up to me, we’d take it out back and shoot it.

    Americans aren’t about the economy. Racism and Israel is more important to them than their welfare.

      Yeah. It is so much easier for me to believe that Americans are racist than to believe that 79 million people thought “The Apprentice” was a documentary. This born-rich imbecile is the opposite of a tycoon - he literally bankrupted a casino.

        I still experience dumbasses that really do believe that “at least he’s good at business”. I mean where the fuck to even start with such delusion?
