Recession or Not?

Everyone on the news is talking about a recession. Are we really in a recession? I won't know if we are or not. I don't have enough assets to really notice. During World War II America came to the front and started producing whatever was needed for the war effort. That's why Singer, known for their sewing machines, produced those very collectible WWII era weapons. The war on terror is different for some reason. No one even knows there's a war unless they're looking at death tolls on CNN. I wonder why they don't show the death toll for any major American city for comparison. Anyway, why does our economy ignore the war. Maybe it's not a recession. Maybe we're a nation at war.

I personally, am recession proof. Allow me to explain:
I get paid by the US Army when things get really bad. If they are so bad that I end up overseas, that's tax-free money. Also, I have lots of firearms. The price of firearms go up significantly as situations get worse; the situations can be as minor as democrats getting elected into office. These firearms with other basic knowledge can provide my family and others food if no other means are available. At this point, which is very far out, the stock market and bank accounts won't mean anything. Remember, it was only 78 years ago that everything bottomed out in the great depression. Everything remains relative.
