2.1 Trillion lost (now even more) - The true "Trickle Down" effect to begin

[packman]

That money lost in investment, stocks, businesses, and industry will eventually trickle down to lay-offs, firings, unemployment, and closed factories. Once again, the rich are going to screw the middle class - they will have to recoup that money somewhere, somehow.

Wonder what we can expect ? A world-wide recession?

Or, "Is the only thing we have to fear is fear itself"?

1. However Trump sees this a good thing, since

More people will go to his golf course.

2. How does the British Proletariat falling for a RW con job...

...equate to "the rich are going to screw the middle class?"

When markets collapse the effects are felt by everyone including the rich.

Welcome to "the Revolution..."

5. "the effects are felt by everyone" but the rich will have 'new investment opportunities'

and the poor will have no roof over their head and be eating cat food.

Not exactly the same thing in my book.

3. Another Stock Market Crash and Great Depression would be one heck of a way to equalize incomes.

Let's just hope that only Donald comes out in favor of that idea and not any liberal politicians.

4. It is difficult to see how more "quantitative easing" is going to fix it this time.

And it is difficult to see how they are going to get all the suckers to jump back in too.

Maybe they will try the "bail ins" this time.

6. Somewhere in between

It would suck to be a British citizen working elsewhere in the EU, or vice versa

7. Waiting for the IMF

to figure out how they are going to bail out any rich people or big banks that lost a nickel or two.
