Yes, hunker down, buy less, travel less, buy second hand.
It will reduce quality of life and shrink the economy. Why? If you can’t trust baby food to not kill your kid, you make your own. If you can’t trust toys to not kill your kid you buy fewer toys, focusing on a few trustworthy brands. If you can’t trust planes not to crash you fly less.
“Many people don’t realize how high the American quality of life is because of the competent & stable enforcement of regulations, &if that goes away a lot of lives are at risk,” said Steve Cicala… “This affects airplane safety, baby formula safety, the safety of meat, vegetables and packaged foods…”

International tourism is worth $200 billion every year to the US economy.

Yep, we had a chance.
Nobody wants to say that Bidenomics worked at anything, but we really did have a successful targeted industrial policy that was reviving critical domestic industries and starting a manufacturing construction boom. Trump is destroying all that. From @ryanlcooper.com:
