Absolutely agree.

It’s amazing how all these retrospective decision makers who have the luxury of 2nd guessing & criticizing after-the-fact aren’t multi-billionaires. I’m certain they know well before any market changes how to invest with their crystal balls

So neither the Fed nor congress got the memo. Expect the media to go to bat for them and change the definition of recession for a few months.


They all got the memo...from the WEF and China.

I agree about Desantis’s policies/actions. In fact I’m living in Florida and selfishly hope he continues as Governor. But his decisions came at a much later stage of this Covid affair than when Trump had to make nation-wide decisions. Not saying Trump made all the right decisions - particularly who to trust- but it’s a lot easier to say that now

People in any sort of B2B sales is noticing the trends more than others. Delaying/canceling contracts, requesting deep cuts in fees/prices, longstanding relationships putting work out to bid to cheaper alternatives, etc.

Then of course on the sales side there is pressure to increase fees due to inflation and increasing fees from their vendors, higher salary demands, etc. It's becoming very obvious that something is about to give.

Eta
Another side of it is the pullback of PE and VC money causing companies to have to slam the brakes on planned growth and often slash jobs that were meant to handle the growth.

Is this the part where we look at wide open FL vs CA throughout the pandemic and your realize you're a fricking retard?


Sorry you don't know how statistics work. California has had 93k deaths with a population of almost 40 million, so .23% of their population. Florida has had 77k deaths with a population of almost 22 million so .35% of their population.

Try again.

I'm fairly certain they don't know what the hell to do. They are the Dutch boy plugging the dike, except they are also creating the holes.

I wish people would be more honest and admit they were willing to sacrifice more lives for a strong robust economy. Instead, they just regurgitate propaganda that the numbers are lies and half these people died from gout or something.

I was willing to sacrifice more lives for a strong robust economy. I have no shame.

Who cares about recession when we have a guy in the White House who is modest enough not to demand the biggest scoop of ice cream . Now that was a nightmare.

Florida is probably fatter and probably has a higher percentage of senior citizens...you know the ones that were really at risk.

You are correct about the seniors. Florida second in the nation with 21% of population 65 or older. California 45th in the nation at 15% of their population 65 or older.

that would help explain the stats better. Also just seems like the California seniors would be healthier over all...The northeast (retirees) and florida aren't exactly known to be huge on being healthy

I also love stats.

What is the rate of the "at-risk population" of both those states? You know, since millions of old people flock to FL to retire, and they are the most at risk.

Leaders in leftist run states knew this, so they sent sick people to retirement homes to kill more folks. Some leaders even pulled their own family members out of said homes before they purposely infected others. What great folks, eh?
