I didn’t say politics. I said government. The people doing this kind of work will do it no matter which party is in office. And they are out there right now somewhere in the world doing it already. And if you want to cast the whole of production and distribution as “the economy” then it would take an asteroid, super volcano, or zombie plague to stop it. We aren’t talking about everyone just doing nothing and you know it. People are still going to harvest food. Truck drivers are still going to drive their trucks. The method of pay just changes.

Saying the economy isn’t just the stock market when the economy crashing is solely defined by the stock market going down is fucking hilarious.
