> But to be clear the economy does not currently "suck in general" To be clear, what you say has little effect on reality. The decreased discretionary spending, housing market approaching a complete freeze, layoffs (those not being publicized in the news), inflation impacting every vertical, and the various shuttering businesses (survived covid, but died anyway), are what makes it "suck". This is not quantitative, but it is the sentiment. |

I'm looking forward to our first "just bad vibes" recession in which all the quantitative numbers behind what you describe are mostly fine, but we are just going to "sentiment" ourselves into a recession anyway.
