I'd rather see the state work with all employers to see if they can come up with incentives to spread the risk among a broader pool. This is a Band-Aid, arbitrary, firm-specific solution to one of the most important policy problems of the United States.

It looks like it's the last call for Mexico.

The demand shock from India and China could turn into a supply shock because the reserve situation is so tight. Plus the geopolitical risks.

I think that's understood as a policy issue in China. I don't think it's understood as a policy issue in the United States.

A lot of people who get laid off from corporate jobs end up doing some freelance work, ... But people who are coming from a job with a paycheck are not knowledgeable about the expenses they can file on Schedule C. They should familiarize themselves with those deductions. If they have considerable self-employment income, they can set up a Keogh or SEP IRA to shelter some of the income from taxes.

It's an insane amount of work.
