    The fed charges the interest to the government, also. We're all slaves to the private central bank. Thank Woodrow Wilson, that assholer.

    Going from 2% to 3% unemployment is not a depression. 16% unemployment is a depression.

    Our unemployment rate comes next Friday for the previous month, but the next big one will be on May Day. May 1st. And it may be a Mayday call!

    Are you really surprised? They shut down every effing small business across the country.

    I was expecting 10,000,000.

  7. I don't know why people here are saying this is going to be brief. We're breaking new records every day on number of infections.

  9. Long and Strong S&P 500 Index to the moon. I just increased monthly contributions too. And bought more stocks.

    Oh course people are going to file for unemployment to get an extra $600 per week in benefits. I have encouraged about 15 people I know to go get unemployment.

    I have been very poor before, I know EXACTLY how to survive. Whatever is coming, let it come baby.

  10. It's childish and petty and pointless. Is that what we're going for here?
