This sends tidal waves not ripple effects through the American economy

Greetings,

canc2Remember that when businesses are closed, snowed in, flooded, evacuated, or rendered unsafe for occupancy, this stops the flow of commerce. The businesses lose out on earnings and trade grinds to a halt. This also effects city, municipals, county, state, and federal budgets because if trade halts and businesses are no longer selling goods and aren’t bringing in any income, then there is no tax revenue to be collected , thus putting more  weight on already over strained budgets.

This sends tidal waves not ripple effects through the American economy. It is already in recession and is devolving into a full blown depression, because all economic barometers indicate this. This means more cutbacks and lack of services.

cancSo when airports are shut down, delayed in working at full capacities, or snowed in…guess what? You will soon feel it in prices and quality of service around the state, then nation.

canc3So the great plague of bad weather is nothing to sneeze about….”Snow is of the most dreaded plague when it comes in great drifts from five to thirty-five feet. It buries your property and lives. It destroys your highways, your cities, and your concrete and gravel in towns and cities. It puts a great burden of expense upon the cities. It puts a great burden of expense upon the city to repair it. The cave-in of roofs of homes, the cutting off of homes, the cutting off of transportation, isolating areas, brings about starvation. And communication is destroyed with the icing of communication wires.

Traveler Sarah Crowder called it the worst she’s seen, prompting the Chicago Tribune’s Brian Cassella to call on the Transportation Security Administration to “do better.”

Sunday is one of the busiest travel days of the year, as millions of people return home after the Thanksgiving holiday.
