Oh, the EU economy is collapsing? I thought that was common knowledge.

  No? If that’s common knowledge that’s a common lie. It’s not really growing much but there is no collapse occurring. And if you look more specifically at countries some are growing rapidly

    If you don’t grow then you are shrinking as percentage of the worlds economy becoming more and more irrelevant.

    A lot of the "growth" is debt and money going in circles. We'll see how much of it actually stays around next year. So far the US already has to bail out the datacentre expansion by funding transmission lines upgrades instead of asking for money for it from the companies.

    Seller financing is not a financial circle. It's how you buy a car, sometimes a house. This is kind of like Trump derangement syndrome, except AI.
