Have American Investors Gone Off The Deep End?

Alan: Of course, I do not know what's going to happen with The Economy.
But in my private musings, I would consider Americans lucky if we escape the pandemic with any economic outcome shy of a new Dark Age.
"There is no expiration date on karma," and what we've done, starting with our giddy devastation of Native America, and proceeding through slavery and, now, White Supremacism,makes it very difficult for the long arc of history to bend in any direction other than trashing the trashers.
In any event, pray for mercy, NOT justice.
