They are also a major cause of the recession. Before the pandemic, they propped up the price of oil which created a bubble that burst. Then the pandemic further torpedoed the price of oil after the bubble burst. Now they’re sending the country to work which will cause a fall peak in COVID-19 cases, and stirring racial tensions by being a flagrant racist and authoritarian. All of those things are huge hits in market speculation which drives the high level economic indicators.
That’s not to mention that austerity, especially in the form of huge tax breaks and deregulation, has caused a downward spiral in the stock market 100% of the time. The fact that people still try to deny the reality that can be measured easily for the past 50-60 years and still appear as “experts” on the matter in the news just rubs it in that those benefits are not for us.

Big Tech trade association warns Uncle Sam against knee-jerk national security measures that harm industry
In a comment that runs the risk of enticing an unusually small, orange thumb to hit the tweet button, the ITI also suggested that measures should be “based on factual evidence of concrete risks” rather than the paranoid rantings of a social media echo chamber, for example, and “are narrowly tailored to the risks themselves, rather than applied to entire categories of technology or business activity.”

Conversations at the highest ranks of the party have reached what one veteran operative called the “acceptance phase of grieving,” where “there is an understanding that he’s president until at least November, and there is not much we can do about it.”
Most of the Republican officeholders standing for reelection are counting on Trump’s core supporters to turn out — and after weathering more than 3½ years of political storms, they see no advantage in breaking with the president now.
“There’s no middle ground to run to anymore,” said Brendan Buck, a former top adviser to the past two Republican House speakers, Paul D. Ryan of Wisconsin and John Boehner of Ohio. “I continue to believe that there’s really no political upside to running away from [Trump]. You gain nothing and you raise the ire of not just the president but people who support him.”
Where do the Republicans think Trump’s supporters are going to go after November?
By now, the GOP should have realized that they aren’t staging Atlas Shrugged after all, instead they’re in the third act of a Greek tragedy and all their terrible decisions are coming home to roost.The toxic, anti-intellectual, aggressively hostile to American ideals GOP electorate didn’t happen overnight — it took decades to create, and those voters aren’t going to disappear just because their avatar goes down in flames.

If only there had been a chance, like maybe impeachment. But no, unfortunately, no such opportunity presented itself.
