Recession for the US is business as usual for the rest of the world.
Your x000 sq ft house hasn't appreciated 20% this year?
You can't afford to trade in one of your 1 year old SUVs for a brand new one?
You're so poor you can only eat out 5 times a week?
Your graphics card is 3 months old and therefore so out of date you want to stick forks in your eyes because you can't upgrade?
Very sorry, time to man up, take off the skirt, grow a moustache and harden the fuck up.

or we should reconsider what a good economy should be. how about stength and stability? a few posts back I mentioned the next bubble coming along; that wasn't a joke.

All a recession is, is a crisis of confidence. People don't feel confident that things are going to get better, that they don't have to worry about losing their job next week, and that it's safe to spend money. Confidence requires stability and this administration has provided none of it since taking office.
Its more that business as usual in your ponzi-economy country is an unsustainable orgy of Chinese debt and south-american drug-taking.
Strength and stability means an end to wild overconsumption with no regard to the future - Get used to it.

Move to Europe. You can take your pick of slow growth countries who value stability more than wealth generation.Reciprocity wrote:

We normally double the GDP growth of the second highest country (outside of third worlders) without bubbles. In my thirty years on the planet there have been exactly two bubbles, the dot.com bubble and the housing bubble. They are the exception, not the norm.Reciprocity wrote:

Mac: well you can immigrate to places like Australia were not that culturally different.
Ok bud. I'll let you get back to your regularly scheduled dreamworld where government is the solution and knows best and can predict all bubbles and stop them. Regulation is indeed the key to a successful economy. The fewer people with the keys to the car the safer we all are amirite?Dilbert_X wrote:

The stimulus did nothing but prevent teacher layoffs at the state level since they all refused to renegotiate their salaries to sustainable levels. It was nothing more than a handout to the unions.Dilbert_X wrote:

you insist that taxes and regulations destroy commerce. well, there are no taxes or regulations in somalia so it must be a haven for competative, cut-throat private enterprise- the kind of enterprise that is brought out by the best of free and unfettered humanity.JohnG@lt wrote:

Theres a lot of goverment regulation in South Africa but it's still a shithole. Italy is a shithole too, nazi germany was a shithole, soviet russia was a shithole. somalia was a shithole to begin with.Reciprocity wrote:
