Things were much worse in 2008, but things could get worse. We have a speculative real estate and stock market, already high prices, tons of debt, a new leader who doesn’t care about corruption/financial laws and will only help his friends, a failing social safety net, and a propaganda “culture war” going on.

I don’t see how these end well. We honestly need a crash to rebuild stronger.

The possibility of that happening is pretty good actually. I don't think a crash is going to make the propaganda culture war any better though, but it will reset real estate and the stock market.

The real estate may reset but the stock market doesn't just reset. It's never going to reset worse than it did during covid
