This economy is totally broken. The signs are everywhere. If things were going great, cardboard box demand would not be plunging at historically high levels.

This is a key economic indicator. Less demand for cardboard boxes means that there is less demand for products to be shipped. It means that people are buying less things.

Media talking heads and politicians are just going to pretend that nothing is wrong as the economy collapses around us. They will piss on your face and tell you it is raining all day and all night.
