Walker88 Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 I think we delude ourselves or try to make us and our time 'special' by thinking the end is near and it's never been this bad. Few periods in human history have been as relatively quiet as the last few decades. Yes, we had Covid, but the two bouts of Plague wiped out 25% of Europe the first time and upwards of 10% the second. Genghis Khan rolled across South Asia into Europe 8 centuries ago wiping out 20% of humanity. Even in the last hundred fifty years we've had two World Wars, the Holocaust, The Great Depression, The Armenian Massacre, Stalin's purges, Mao's killing of 60 million, Cambodia of the 1970s, three major Middle East wars, Vietnam, the former Yugoslavia in the 1990s....... All things considered, the world is actually pretty quiet today. I can get on a plane and fly anywhere in the world today, save for over Ukraine and Israel. I'll find food and shelter wherever I go, and in most places decent medical care if I need it. We're a heck of a long way from Hobbes or Mad Max or Cormac McCarthy. Relax. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the fact trump eff'd up Covid by denying its existence and doing nothing (such as banning flights from China, ramping up PPE production) until it has taken firm hold in the US, his economy was nothing special BEFORE Covid, as his GDP growth ranked in the bottom 30% going back to WWII. He also began running up record deficits even before Covid, and ended up adding almost $8 trillion in all before getting his butt kicked in 2020. THAT $8 trillion is what caused the subsequent inflation. Obama's job growth dwarfed his, and Biden's job growth also beat trump. Obama's stock market was far superior to trump, too. Because I call out your messiah doesn't make it nonsense. Nonsense is that trump ever did anything beneficial since his mother squirted him out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
