I don't support a bailout. Time to do even more with even less. You can stuff your chairs with old growth wood pellets or chip up one of the trees that don't exist.

23 states are now in a recession and 11 more are close to it.
The last time this many states entered recession at once was 2008. Back then, unemployment hit 10% and foreclosures doubled within 18 months.
