You should tell that to the Fed, wall street, PBS, and all the rich people who control the money.

They gonna juice the gambling (djia, nasdaq, crypto, etc) using unemployment as excuse. It's been too long without a massive handout to the already rich.

There's surely some leeway in the momentum of orange fear. But, that fear is primarily rooted in propaganda, not wisdom. The fear is temporary and quite expensive to maintain. The underlying economic and social tension that easily breaks over to meaningful action is ever-present. Such scarcity cannot be ignored by anyone.
