Great Depression 2.0 or Nah?

[laterallyshaking]

You don't have to look far to find a doomsday economist at any point in our recent history, but I will admit things are looking like a powder keg at the moment. But, I'm not an economist myself, so what do I know. What do y'all think?

Nah we have a money printer with unlimited ink and unlimited paper

Oh yes, I forgot about that.

I've never doomed and groomed. The housing bubble was bad as was the tech bubble.
They have to get some of this money out of the system to stop inflation but that is a suicide pill in production economy to raise the rates.
I think whatever way they go is bad bc the fed reserve has almost always saved Wallstreet and it looks like they may be alright with severe contraction.
I'm glad I don't have a baby. Although my folks never used purchased formula ever

I think this will be much worse than any of the other recessions since the 70s

The thing is.... they are going step by step for what caused the great depression. Pelosi was calling for price controls today. They've already said they want higher taxes and more handouts. They refuse to open up oil and gas and they killing international trade over Ukraine.

Almost like they are trying to destroy this country on purpose.

We currently have two twins on formula. We are having to watch for places to get formula in stock, then buy the max amount day by day until they go out of stock. Trying to get a 2 month supply built up, but it's tough.

Get them on the tit or buy a cow.

How old are they at this point?

 

[GarnetPild]

7.

 

[American Deplorable]

No.

The GD was way worse than any of us could ever imagine.

We would need roughly 20% unemployment for 10 years. Add to that a 15% drop in GDP and a 50% drop in international trade.

Since nobody here is old enough to truly understand how bad that is the 2008 recession caused a 1% drop in GDP.

Glad my twins are finally off that formula. I’d be a little worried if they weren’t.

First, I blame Brandon for the lack of baby formula.

My memories are pretty faded of the time I was a 1 year old 59 years ago but I really don’t remember my mom giving me formula.

I wonder what babies were fed 1000 years ago or even 100 years ago.

Is there a way to keep these kids alive without formula?

Titty milk. the problem is that women dry up after about of month or so of not breast feeding. Many women have already switched to formula and dried up so they can't go back. Goats milk is the best replacement. Cow milk is really poor in comparison. I was raised on goats milk because mom had to go back to work and I don't think we had formula back then.

Titties

7 months. They'll be 8 months on the 30th.

Yeah, my wife's titties weren't really producing as much as they needed to, so after a couple of months she threw in the towel. They aren't producing anything at the moment.

If anybody knows a busty nurse-maid to send my way, let me know.

We can look for you. What state do you live in?

I've said this for months but I'm not claiming you're plagiarizing me like Depends Joe would do.

Lol. Alot of people with their eyes open have been saying this for a long time. At some point you have to realize it just cannot be incompetence or ignorance. This is all very purposeful.

They’ll be in cheeseburgers soon enough. Everything good with them? And their big sister?

Try looking at farm livestock feed stores for frozen goats milk. I wasn't really joking. Lots of kids here were raised on it back before the 90's. It's like 3X more nutrient dense than cow's milk.

Huntsville, Alabama. Let me know if you find anything. My wife stays on the lookout. Sam's has been coming through for the most part, but they restocked the shelf with something else as of yesterday. Makes me wonder if they have also run dry.

 

[laterallyshaking]

Yeah, man! They are doing great. Big sister loves her new role and they love her. It's still a lot of work and not a bunch of sleep, but they are all great. Totally worth the effort.

Seems to be a whole bunch at the Walmart nearest me here in Iowa.

I'll be right over.

Well, mail, if it's that bad.

True, true. It seems to be fine for now. Just depends on how all this shakes out.

Well if you're waiting for it to shake out you might be fucked when that time comes. Seems like us in the central u.s. are in better shape than everyone else, so was just giving a heads up. I might order myself some just to take me back to better days, mix in with a little Hawkeye vodka.

We are still finding and buying some here. Just not the brand/type we have been getting.

Hey, that's a concern many of us share. It's a tough time, and uncertainty can weigh heavily. While we navigate these choppy waters, it's crucial to prioritize our mental well-being. I found some really helpful insights on coping with stress and anxiety during uncertain times over at MentalHealth.com. Taking care of our mental health is vital, especially when things feel uncertain.
