This isn't an either let all businesses fail or prop up the entire stock market with cheap cash choice and your framing of it as such is intellectually dishonest.
I didn’t frame it as an either/or. I literally just reframed what you said: that people far away from retirement shouldn’t care if the stock market crashes, because they’ll benefit if it does.
The market making a correction != businesses failing. The market is severely overpriced as-is, it didn't need to be propped up. Companies don't fail because their share price has dropped.
