When it comes to the American economy, one thing is certain: If you are looking for doom and gloom, it’s not difficult to find.
There’s this recent New York Times headline: “New Layoffs Add to Worries Over U.S. Economic Slowdown.” Or this one from Bloomberg: “U.S. Economy Not in a V-Shaped Recovery.” On a daily basis, Americans wake up to pessimistic projections about the COVID-19 pandemic and the economic growth that it has curtailed. Walking down the street, you are bound to run into a shuttered business or an unemployed worker.
