It is hard to believe virtually every major store/shop is bordered up on his 4 minute drive, with some never to return.

looks like I should invest in plywood companies.

There are tons of them moving to FL, especially once they learn there is no state income tax and mild winters. They are also moving to TX.
Lets just hope they do not bring their liberal voting record with them, which screwed up NY in the first place.
How on earth could DeBlasio ever get elected?

I didn't realize it was getting that bad in NYC. Hope they get rid of DeBlasio.

Who would've thought in January of 2020 that the money makers this year would've been: plywood, plexiglass and toilet paper.

It is amazing what you can do adding $3 trillion to the national debt in a single year. Wall Street says "printing money is your friend".

The National Debt is $27 trillion.

Beginning Trump's term it was $20 trillion.

That is a massive increase and unsustainable. Keep this up and we are going down. Buy gold.
