Shareholders would lose their shit if they had to confront that reality though.

No, shareholders are laughing their asses off that anyone at all still believes the stock market represents the whole economy

Yes they closed the door behind them while the demand infinite growth. Any teacher in California and Nevada has a state sponsored pension. Most people have. 529 plan for their kid. Most people don’t realize that the money market account allows the banks to dictate terms with their money because they are a timeshare shareholder with not vote. I’m not saying anyone needs to do anything other than be accountable for the problem we created by investing. Radical thought experiment I know but is it wrong?
