Recession big enough to hit GAE is a recession that hits the world, as seen in 2008 nigger housing crisis, during covid lockdowns and RU-UA related energy crisis. Relatively nothing will change, 3rd world shit holes will still be shit holes, 1st world will still be 1st world, doesn't matter what happens.
2. You have states will >60% total aggregate taxation in anything besides lowest bracket. Examples in the world show people endure even around 80%(uk). If cost had a meaning you all would be chipping in willingly 1% for 10 years already and had 10 year plan on course.
As far as the risk cost you mention, "pray it doesn't happen to me" party has been the silent majority for 10 years now. You're just getting BLM chimp outs drip fed and will be swept under a rug.
