We should have a big crash right now because all the stimulus ended, 20 million people don't have jobs and could be kicked out of their apartments and have a shortage of food access. We shouldn't celebrate before we address these larger needs.
- SpicyLemonZest 6y agoI'm not saying everything's good, but those are all very solvable problems in comparison to what we expected. A few months ago, grocery stores were running out of staple items by noon and there were serious concerns of a nationwide meat shortage.
- TomSwirly 6y agoNothing concerning about that. A nationwide meat shortage is entirely good.
- gruez 6y ago>We should have a big crash right now because all the stimulus ended It's probably not instantaneous. Other people in this thread mentioned that savings is up, so I'm guessing people have some money saved up, and therefore can probably last a few weeks (or months?) before running out of money. >could be kicked out of their apartments Aren't most cities still not processing evictions? Even if they did, the combination of social distancing restrictions (less court capacity) + flood of evictions probably means there's a huge backlog, which means very little people would end up getting evicted.
- NotSammyHagar 6y agoMy city is blocking evictions but I bet smaller cities aren't.
