The US Economy is about to go down the tubes

I'm glad I got a well paying government job that just got extended with a 10 year contract. I'll be able to retire from here. And very comfortably.
But, I feel terrible for those who have to work in the private sector. This is not on the workers and business owners but on policy trying to overmanage the frick out of our country's economy to make sure muh equality.
Thoughts and prayers baws
Only Trump can save us now.

The way things are looking you really feel that good about this? I think I would rather be in the private sector.
Let’s put it this way. If the government was a private company you worked for how would you feel about their balance sheet?

Nah it will not go down tubes.
Big Daddy govt will step in and bail bankers out and kick the can down the road.

Don't care. The money I care about is already in the bank. All I gotta do is just not get fired lol.

Your fancy government job won't save you when a loaf of bread costs $10,000

So, when the government cannot pay the bill, how does that work out for you?

What sucks is that if it was to go to $10k I'll be able to afford over a lot of people who are in the private sector.
If I really had to leave the gubbamint sector and go to the private sector, I would feel really bad for the person whose job I would be taking from them.
This is not me necessarily spiking the football. We're all as Americans are in the same boat.

#1 - your concern for others doesn’t seem genuine. Sounds like you are rooting for the economic troubles so that your preferred candidate can use them as a campaign issue
#2 - there are far greater global forces in micro and macro economic trends that are affecting the world and US economy beyond any potential effect that over regulation may have.

Something to keep in mind -
Taxpayers pay your salary.
Big Daddy government can’t bail anything out. Only taxpayers.
The government has not a dime and produces nothing of value to generate revenue. The government only spends what it steals from
Taxpayers.
Period.

Trump supports us productive Americans. I don't see an issue here.
#2 You're right. It's not that simple but I can tell you that Democrats have been the main problem in this country as far as economic affairs as go. That much cannot be debated.

Agreed. But they did enter into a legal contract with my company that they must honor.

That's nice. I don't really care if people don't like me. Why would I?

There is nothing left to bail out anyone

I want Trump in there for other reasons, but he is not going to save us from economic catastrophe.

I hope he can find something but you're probably right. And it's not a problem of his own making. Elections have consequences.

At some point this isn’t going to work. The next printing/spending cycle is going to be very dangerous after how the last one went

I would say it WILL be the last one. As it will be catastrophic. Utterly.
