@adamtaggart@unusual_whales I agree, it could be a lot worse.
However, when people are anxious about keeping a roof over their head, paying bills, or the next meal, they don't care about the stock market.
Nothing else matters until family and home are secure.
@DavidBCollum@iGlobalGold Preemptively onshorining entire industries our nation depends on before such a significant correction seems like one hell of a strategic move.
May not lessen the blow, but should shorten the pain and expedite recovery.
@RapidResponse47@epaleezeldin@EPA How are we supposed to safeguard drinking water from microplastics when many municipalities are installing plastic water mains?
@adamtaggart@AetiusLast58390 Part of growing is getting comfortable being uncomfortable. Overcoming adversity builds confidence in one's self and their ability to handle future obstacles.
I'd assume a parent in an interview would mean they'd freeze during future difficulties.
@ericweinstein Complete loss of confidence in governments worldwide.
Mass confusion.
Revolt. People take to the streets.
Fear, panic, chaos, and destruction.
@SecKennedy I commend you on this issue!
Have you thought of solutions for our water?
Many water mains and residential homes are now strictly plastic.
It's hard to get away from consuming a steady dose of microplastics and phthalates. Especially in financially struggling municipalities.
@adamtaggart If the goal is to start producing domestically, instead of importing, I wonder how much he can do on his own.
Some things won't change until it's necessary.
Adversity breeds change.
Long term, it would be great for the world to invest in us.
Seems it might sting a little first.
@adamtaggart Imagine what it would (will?) take to cut spending, balance the budget, pay debt, bring jobs home from overseas, make lean government employment, and start an external revenue fund in less than 4 years.
Promises made sound wonderful.
Promises kept may be harsh for several months.
@adamtaggart Yes.
Short, troublesome period before long-term benefits.
Some of this shouldn't come as a shock with many negative data revisions after their initial media spotlight over the last several years.
If Trump's revisioning our economy, some of rebuilding comes from breaking it first.
@huntersmomma7 Statistically, everything is shit right now. Economic data might look decent, but it's all revised worse after the fact. Many companies are laying off or downsizing.
A lot can change in one year.
For now, just keep killing it!
@huntersmomma7 The most important job you will ever have is being a wonderful mother. You made the best decision!
I can't imagine the stress you must endure.
My only add would be, don't lose hope.
@Fynnderella1 Maybe they aren't from a 1st world country and are new to ours.
Wording seems odd in reports.
"First measles death...was a school-aged child."
"Child was unvaccinated and had been hospitalized in Lubbock, Texas..."
Yet no answers on age, other health issues, or actual schooling.
