The U.S. Can’t Afford a Recession — So They’ll Print Trillions

Apr 27, 2026

The creator argues that the US government can no longer afford a recession due to its reliance on tax revenue from income, corporate profits, and capital gains. Historical data from the dot-com crash, the Great Recession, and the COVID-19 pandemic are used to illustrate how recessions lead to decreased tax collections and ballooning deficits, forcing government intervention. The creator suggests this makes recessions 'banished' and implies a need for investors to understand this dynamic.
