You mean the one that Trump said was a democratic hoax? The one that he said would disappear "like a miracle"? The one that wound up infecting him and his own family?
So much for boom time expectations - people have all this free printed money but nothing to spend it on because of supply shortages. Demand is blowing out prices which reduces buying power and business cannot find workers because they are paid by Biden to stay home and have been scared to death of leaving the house because of COVID even if vaccinated
Would be tremendous for the economy if Joe can cut off the gigantic ball-and-chain (a.k.a. do-nothing republican losers) around the country's ankle and sign a substantial infrastructure bill...
It's all giant corporations. Yeah, they'll do great, as all the small businesses dry up and people are forced to use the megacorporations more.
Do you ever leave your house and talk to real people on the street? Strike up a conversation with the local shop owner about what HE thinks about the future? Those are the people in your neighborhood. Those are the people who matter, in your life. Are those people going to do well in the next two years, or is it only the people in a particular socioeconomic class that's way above any of our pay grades?
However, small businesses located in strip malls next to a big box store, like Walmart, will do quite well from the traffic the big box store creates. Nearly all of them offer goods and services the big box stores don't as pictured. Does your local Wal-Mart sell pot? No! This strip mall does from two med pot dispensaries. (Photo taken on Sunday, which is why it doesn't look busy.) No store vacancies here, since a new restaurant recently opened. On the other hand, there is a bunch of vacant stores downtown. That is where there will likely still be a lot of economic depression in America caused by big box stores and strip malls.

State governors just need to end the extra unemployment money. It will be interesting to see if help wanted signs go down at my favorite restaurant as a result. Chili's needs help, too.
I don't know of a single person now afraid to leave the house. Maybe you need to move to a red state and things will look a lot better with no doom and gloom.
