So what is in store for the economy? The answer is a resounding I don't know. I suppose I could play the paranoid delusional card and say that the super rich are controlling everything and that they didn't like the oil barons taking everything so they tanked the economy to lower demand to lower gas prices. That is fun. I remember I was on a radio show in July and they gave me a full half hour talking with their host. I spewed out some stuff that I had read how gas prices were predicted to go to 8$ a gallon next year. So everybody gets scared and I realize that prices were high simply because of fear of a gas shortage. Now prices are low because of fear of a lower demand for gas because people will be out of work. Anytime you hear any news man talking about an upcoming depression, that fear that he speaks lowers confidence in the markets. It is amazing how much power the press really has. It is also amazing how much sensationalism drives our economy. I've got to hand it to Donald Trump. I remember them interviewing him right when the markets started diving. He said this is great and that America's money will quit leaving America to go to the middle east. He said he wouldn't be surprised if oil got below $60 a barrel, which it now is. I wonder if his hair piece is from the future... feeding him... firing people...
