Doctor: You need to have immediate surgery. You have massive internal bleeding. You will die if we don't do this immediately.
Economically illiterate patient: Well how much is surgery?
Doctor: $150,000
Economically illiterate patient: Well I don't have that much. I need to budget and figure out how to pay for it and will come back when I have the full amount paid for.
Doctor: We'll figure that out later. YOU WILL DIE if you don't this right now.
Economically illiterate patient: I am going to go home and think about it and start working on getting it paid for.
There is no tomorrow if this doesn't happen now. Nothing else will matter. We are going to have a -25% GDP quarter and most of the country will get caught in the undertow. We can 25% unemployment. There is no dollar amount that doesn't make sense. Nothing in the world matters if we have a Great Depression. You might think you have infinite life because Jesus or something. Losing 10 years of life going through a depression isn't something most people more glued to this world think is a good idea.
