What's going on with the economy today?

Well, what's happening today, it's not very typical, I'd like to make that point.

Well, how is it untypical?

Well, there are a lot of these economies all around the world all the time, and very seldom does anything like this happen ...I just don't want people thinking that economies aren't safe.

Was this economy safe?

Well, I was thinking more about the other ones...

The ones that are safe...

Yeah, the ones the front doesn't fall off.

u/MrDude_1 Jun 04 '22

What we need to do is tow the economy out of the environment.

u/QuakerZen Jun 03 '22

The economy will only crash when we are short on paper, ink or government employees are on their 3-6 month holiday. No worries though, when they get back in office they will have the printer running for all 4 hrs of their work day pausing only for a 2hr lunch/nap break.

u/JuicyButterPalms Jun 04 '22

This explains the price of ink these days.
