"No problem."There is no problem for which their answer is not "no problem."
Medicare will go bust. Social Security will go bust. "No problem."
The unemployment rate keeps rising. "No problem."
When people refuse to face reality, because reality is going to be more painful than anything they have experienced, they look for signs that the problems they cannot avoid without changing are really not that bad. They look for offsetting good news.
They think the status quo ante will return.
If you believe we are in tough economic times and things are going to get much worse before they get any better, then you should be preparing to ride them out by ...doing what? Some are paying off debt, buying gold, hunkering down, saving, stocking up on canned goods, etc. What are you doing?
A Tsunami is coming. In such a scenario, you have got to get out of the water and off the beach. But few people ever do, unless they have seen a tsunami. Few have.
