Did an interesting piece today.

America is being attacked on all fronts and you have an utter idiot at the wheel.

Basically the whole Saudi/Russian 'war' to carry on providing cheap oil is crippling America's fuel industry.Almost every tanker in the world is full of crude and almost all silos are full. Oil is being traded at less than $20 a barrel. America is begging the Saudis to stop producing but they are not listening.

No one is using petrol thanks to the global shutdown and America is the worlds biggest producer

The trade war from China coupled with this oil and virus crisis and shutdown shows possibly the worst crisis in American history.

Good job you have a known genius with experience in bankruptcies.

I am certainly not gloating. I was genuinely shocked to see how leveraged America is. And tbh a bit worried.

I can see a war in the offing.

This isn't going to be an easy bounce back me laddo.

You may be a regular fonzie straight out of the fridge.

But you are few and far between in the land of the brave.

This could be a genuine meltdown as other things happen as if like they were planned.

Sorry you got laid off, matey.

The whole point of Costco is mass purchase/stockpiling, being a cashier there at the moment must be a nightmare.

Coronavirus: Larry Hogan says Trump's claims about testing 'not true'
Maryland Governor Larry Hogan, a Republican, said Tuesday on NPR's Morning Edition that President Donald Trump was incorrect in saying coronavirus testing problems had been resolved.

"Yeah, that's just not true. I mean I know that they've taken some steps to create new tests, but they're not actually produced and distributed out to the states." Hogan said, when host Rachel Martin asked him about Trump's assertions. "No state has enough testing."

not worth it
Firstly , don't trust a word anyone associated with banking is saying right now. They are trying to play up the crisis as much as possible to siphon off as much money from the treasury as they can.

Secondly, unemployment won't be that big a deal if Trump follows his mates BoJo and Scotty from Marketing down here, which he probably will. The Right has turned full-blown socialist in the UK and Australia, and Trump will follow that as a way of protecting his re-election.

You can thank John Maynard Keynes for saving capitalism for a little while longer.
