As we can see from the last bubble burst, durable goods didn't feel the sting until a year after energy prices were at all time highs.
There is vast differences between 2008 and now. The inflation rate was at 3.75%, so there was no need to increase lending rates, that's obviously not the case now. We are also facing an even bigger problem, that being, the boomer generation at it's peak population is retiring and we don't have the workforce to fill that gap for at least 2 decades and that's only if the gen-z'rs actually decide to have children.
This isn't going to be a recession, it's going to be a depression.

Russia is just now feeling the population decline from the Stalin years along with Eastern Europe.
There is no escaping what's coming down the tunnel and there's no current form of government that's equipped to handle the economic deflation.

But it's not just two random facts... it's literally cause and effect.
The Fed is constantly worrying about deflation, as if it was the biggest boogie man of all time, but it really isn't. Products and materials get cheaper as new technologies or processes become moreso efficient, rather than pass those savings onto consumers they're instead pocketed as profits. If instead they're passed onto consumers, who in turn buy more goods, why is that a bad thing.Quote:

So implement a one strike program, where migrants are granted a work visa until they stop working or get arrested for a misdemeanor or more serious offense and then deport them for 5-10 years. No appeals, no 'but your honor it was just one bottle of tequila', just one express lane out of our country. Trump's plan to accept only migrants who wouldn't use welfare systems should also be codified.
