What is the fix for this?

Tens of millions of now permanently unemployed Americans. Tens of thousands of lost small businesses. Obviously, we need a lot of socialism and open borders that will fix this.

US Q2 GDP Crashes By A Record 32.9%

by Tyler Durden
Thu, 07/30/2020 - 08:54

The biggest question we had ahead of today's unprecedented GDP drop was "how do we show it on a chart without losing the impact of all other prints?" Well, for better or worse, this is the best we could come up with: at -32.9% annualized, Q2 GDP just plunged by the most on record, surpassing the previous biggest drop of -10% hit in 1958.

    Joe Biden is the solution along with input from Cuomo and Newsom and other governors who have done such great work this year.

    Exactly. Failure is now success.

    Worth it if it saves one life and gets trump removed. Next year will be extra prosperous with higher taxes and more regulation. It will be trumps fault. You'll have no idea the damage he did.

    Worst depression since Obama took over in 08 after the worst depression since 32

    Question for all of you; would you pay $70,000 for your child's online classes? I'm trying to advise my child whether delaying their college education makes more sense than paying a ridiculous amount of money for something which can be attained for far less. Can the university deny readmission if and when they decide to come back? I called the university and they refused to give me the answer and instead directed my child to make the call and ask the question which infuriated me even more. My vote in CA won't matter and I feel this is a small way in which I can make cowards pay for their illogical decisions to harm my family. What say you?

    What’s her major? If she hasn’t decided yet, there is no reason for you to waste that money on general studies.

    Marketing and she'll be a Junior. She is currently out of state finishing up a great internship which was going to lead to another at a major ad agency in NY next year. How much does the name of her university mean on the diploma as she competes for that first job out of college?

    I'm pretty sure that in a year, colleges will be desperate for admits that can pay. I would pick some relatively cheap online classes that I know are transferable and get some crappy required classes out of the way. I'm assuming that if its from an accredited online university that will transfer, I'd just make sure. At Oregon, once upon a time, Sociology was a required course for a business degree. Bunch of marxist BS. Pick off some of those beauties along with some English classes. All very doable on line. I'd not take any real core classes, like say intermediate accounting.

    If she’s already getting great internships she’s halfway in the game. Non-STEM degrees make me leery, as my oldest daughter is a HS senior this fall and we’ve been touring schools. Tough call. That’s a shitload of money for an online undergrad experience. Glad I don’t have to make it for a year. Good luck!

    I wish there was a way to see productively by state, I have a feeling the colors might get polarized

    The reality is that the economy is fucked and will be for years but the 70-80 year-old politicians who are set for life are arguing about HCQ and wearing masks as the focus of this election. Now goggles, too. Burn it all down as a system so our kids and grandkids have a shot.

    Maybe AOC is onto something in her own obnoxious way.

    I no longer take it personally when I hear that boomers need to die off to save the country. Could be true. Of course the worthless pieces of shit that we raised need to go too

    Boomers, most underperforming generation in world history?

    Not even close. I won't stand for a rewrite of history

    Online? Thank a boomer. The 80's and the 90's? Boomer sooner

    The issue is the lack of anyone to get the old fucks out now
