[quote=Coronita][quote=scaredyclassic][quote=Coronita]You guys are so negative. I look at it differently….
Free car wash… I’m moving some of my cars out of the garage as we speak.[/quote]

Maybe.

But this relatively small event causes 10 perc. Unemployment.

Would it really take a lot to send us to 30 or 40 perc. Unemployment.

If half the country were out of work, I’m not sure what america would look like.
One thong o know for sure, you wouldnt be happy about a free car wash.

We start from no social cohesion. People distrust each other.

I think humans may also be significantly dumber and less robust nowadays with higher expectations.

15 perc chance shit gets ugly.

I’m kind of wondering if the signs are all around us and we just dont see, kinda of like how I though CV was nothing like, just last month

No point worrying about things you have no control over. Some folks were already on borrowed time to begin with, many of us don’t even know we are on borrowed time, especially the ones that are health fanatics that think that magically they are immune to the randomness of some cancer, tumors, viruses, and infections. You read about some of the most fittest and healthiest people out of nowhere get a heart attack and die. Sheryl Sandberg’s former husband, of all things that could have killed him, died from Arrhythmia while exercising on a treadmill. What’s worse? Dying with everyone else, or being the last one and watching everyone else die around you… I’ll pick door #1 please.[/quote]

But people do have control over being prepared for bad times. Its shocking how overextended people I know are.
