Wait until health premiums go up 30-50% next year. That,by itself,will take us into a recession. I've heard of premiums doubling,but I don't know for who.

I'm not so sure that this portends a downturn. Restaurant stocks are notoriously volatile. I can remember about 25 years ago, Boston Market was one of the hottest companies around, selling for about $40 a share. A couple years later, it was a virtually worthless penny stock at less than one-hundredth of one penny. Good thing I didn't buy in.
The right answer is to let supply and demand work their math magic. At fa$t food joints and in healthcare too. Stay home and have a peanut butter sandwich instead, if your precious little darling didn't sneeze and then run to the doctor to get every allergy test ever invented at other people's expense for a diagnosis of a peanut allergy, or worse yet, autism or long-term covid. Game over. Here's one tissue for your runny nose and another tissue for your tears. Don't like it? Move to Canada.
The wrong answer - and you know this is one they go with - is more middle class welfare. The Josh Hawley playbook. Because "families", you know. John Roberts edited obamacare first edition from the bench to declare it constitutional. Here comes the new edition, money printer goes whirrr, insert dollar signs. A bailout of Big Insurance, that's what it really is. More subsidies, more demand, new "crisis" coming, repeat, insanity. A few cosmetic tweaks to the regs that will claim to reduce costs and fix wastefraudabuse so MAGA media can boast to low-info followers that "this is what winning looks like!"
And Obama is grinning from one big ear to the other big ear. Because obamacare was designed to fail (as Rush told us way back when) and now it's failing. Pretend the price is zero, demand skyrockets, supply stays constant, actual price skyrockets. And most Republicans are falling all over themselves to be the hero who gives away the freebies. Move the decimal point one more place and let's play another round.
Way to go! They took the bait, Barry! "I've abandoned free-market principles to save the free-market system…to make sure the economy doesn't collapse." - President Donald J. Bush, endorsed by Boring Bannon for a third term.
I seem to recall at least two health problems involving Chitpotle--I remember not to eat there because the first part of their name sounds like what could be the result of eating their food. This may be part of the reason why they are going down.
Trump will buy tech companies like nvidia with fake fed money if they ever start failing. If one fails,they all do--have to push the AI narrative as long as possible--and b(sh)itcoin.

Trump wants to come up with more ways for taxpayers to make(fake)money so they can pay tons of taxes. Increase the value of b(sh)itcoin and stocks and the Treasury feasts. But it isn't healthy because once all that reverses(and it will)the deficit will explode even more than it has the last four years and holders of the mentioned items will be hurtin' big time.
