Facts are facts. Great visual read. My take? First, I believe capitalism is the best model to create a higher standard of living but is too often corrupted, like so many of our societal systems and trusted leaders. I have run into too many narcissistic people in my career working as a consultant. They value their own pocketbook over employees and even customers. Second, I stand by my prediction of a looming global recession (60% of those who responded agree). I'm not buy the Bull's (sh**) story that "the world is nearly recession-proof (Goldman Sachs). Too much debt, not enough workers in the US (full employment) and workforce productivity is flat to down. Plus, the US population is growing under 1% a year. I don't care how much new business is available if you don't have the people to manufacture or serve. At the end of the day the orders go unfilled. I say US GDP growth in 2020 is 1.5% at best, and possibly down if the bubble bursts.
