human1234 Posted August 26 Report Posted August 26 Are we already in the age of hiding the truth on a recession? A couple people I know keep saying the news is not being allowed to report bad economic headlines. Google Tourism down at Utah National Parks and you see nothing. Google Moab, Utah tourism down, fyi this is where national parks are, and you see that restaurants are afraid because no one is visiting. They suspended a requirement for timed entry to Arches because tourism was down. Same with Vegas. I went to an anual event that is always crowed and it was empty. Usually full of tourists in Utah. It feels like they are trying to hide we are already in a recession. Coffee shops I visit have told me they are not seeing any customers. Anyone else think we are already in a recession? Feels like it. https://www.reddit.com/r/economicCollapse/s/9E5X3yJRY2 Quote
Hitman Posted August 26 Report Posted August 26 It is not due to recession. It is due to inflation. Compare to Pre pandemic- Hotel prices 2x ( for cheaper option) otherwise 3-4x, Rental car costs 3x- 4x , food 2x . A family of four has to spend 2-3x more when the salaries are increased only 5-10%.

Thokkalee Posted August 26 Report Posted August 26 Foreign tourists have stopped coming.. US gets lot of tourists from China, Canada and Europe. They all stopped coming now. Many in the upper middle class and middle class lost their jobs and/or trying to save money in case they lose their jobs in the coming future.. Labor day ki na circle lo evaru travel plans kuda cheyyaledu… Summer lo cruise and foreign trips ki chala thakkuva mandi vellaru Quote

Redarya Posted August 27 Report Posted August 27 15 minutes ago, Hitman said: 2008 is not from inflation. More like self inflicted by banks with bad loans No look at the lead up. Inflated home prices. Bloated gas prices. Inflated equities. It burst in the form of Banks running out of liquidity to pay debts and hold on to their bonds. Only difference now is banks are well regulated with all the stress tests I thought. Until 2023 when series of banks collapsed due to falling bond prices Quote
