Many things will lose their value but groceries and real estate will always be in demand.

House prices dropped 20% after the GFC.  It took 10 years to recover.

Why would they be immune this time?  This is going to be way worse that GFC.

We spend $100 billion a year on SNAP. How much money could we save if we offered a couple of MREs a day for those unable to provide for themselves? I ate them. They're not bad.

How much would it really be if the fraud and non eligible was removed

Last night was another example of a bish horde gathering.  It time to put together a horde so if a time limit is set for tower players, then it should be no less than 30 minutes.

Tonight 42 Bish, and for a period of time only 23 in flight. They got hit with a 17 ENY.
The ENY was right for the total count, but with only 23 in flight they kinda got burned for that period of time,...less planes in the air, and not top shelf AC. When it's low 20s across the board in all countries in flight,.. they actually got the short straw.

You took that 23 number as people were in tower for a mission, I mentioned you should check again right after you posted that number on 200 and it was 33 because the Mission just upped.  While the sentiment that a team shouldn't be punished for tower sittings, that wasn't the case last night, bish had an appropriate number of players for ENY, unfortunately their enemies had more players combined and were being very aggressive and efficient in their double team base takes.

Which is how it has/should work but not so sure it will in the future..

Might be more money printing for vote buying checks to subsidized everything like they did EV's before they realized they never had the money to do that even..

Interesting times ahead..

When you're given free money like a COVID or Tariff check, or borrowing is essentially free, it suppresses any normal price sensitivity.

Cut off the free money and put the fear of imminent job loss into hearts and minds, and price sensitivity will return with a vengeance.

Which spirals into deflation and depression as people stop spending.

Hyper inflation or depression.  Take you choice.  ;)

Deflation after decades of insane free-money policy is needed, but it won't be fun or pretty.

Is anyone in charge monitoring accounts with the same IP to verify they arent on different teams?  It should probably raise an alert for someone with authority to look into.

The cure for high prices is high prices.  Eventually you cross the outrage threshold and people just stop buying.

Like those $120,000 pickup trucks sitting on dealers lots.  Let them depreciate and rust on the lot.
