FEB 2020 retail sales are up 20%
in normal times with NO pandemic
they’d be up about 7%
so, how is it possible that retail sales are up 13% faster than normal and yet we have 4 million fewer people working?
the answer is we borrowed from our kids
we gave it to everybody spend a day
we printed more money
and what does this do?
