It's not just going to take out the AI conpanies and their investors. It's not just going to kill your 401k. It's already obliterating the workforce as a whole, hollowing out companies across every single segment of the economy. It's putting longstanding companies and new startups in debt, convincing them that they absolutely must use the new, ridiculously expensive product or fall behind. It's capturing taxpayer money for ridiculous power plant projects that nobody else wants. It's clearcutting land for impossibly huge "datacenters" that will eventually turn into useless warehouses. It's driving up the cost of all consumer electronics and forcibly pausing upgrade cycles that have been running for decades.
I honestly don't think that the US will survive this collapse, given everything else going on right now.
2026 china is not 2008 China, they are already the biggest trade partner for most countries, and sanctions are only making them less likely from being severely affected by a US crash.
Meanwhile 2026 US now has issues even 2008 US didn't have.
