Nope not weird at all.

Staten Island? Pete Davidson, your time is now. Sleep with the significant other of every person in this video that can be identified.

I keep seeing this and I kind of get it. I myself am torn between simply not participating in the economy beyond basic needs for a while, but I also know I have some things will need to be replaced in the next few years and they will be prohibitively more expensive shortly. That 15 year old TV in the bedroom? Yeah, I probably should go ahead and replace that rather than wait for it to die off. Have two cars over 200k miles. Oh please just last.

Just because people are spending now doesn't necessarily mean they don't have concerns about the current state. They just have understanding it's about to get much, much, much worse.

My back is getting tired of the shovel.
My yard is 60*130, with sidewalks on both front and side.
Plus a bunch of interior walkways.

I'll try to keep my fingers where they belong.

I hear ya, I live on a corner lot with an extended sidewalk and I'm not getting any younger. Fortunately, my wife helps out quite a bit.

I would also be willing to pay more for American products, but most American made products I have purchased have been shit.

First 8 years of my marriage, I owned 5 different cars, all American. In the 22 years since, I have owned 3. All German. Have had 2 GE washer/dryer pairs and replaced parts regularly. Have had no problems with the Samsungs I have now. Ditto the LG stuff in my Kitchen that replaced Kenmore. Or the LG TV that replaced the RCA that just turned off one day and wouldn't turn back on. I happily buy the best products. And other than Dell PCs, that is almost exclusively imported goods.

I think people call that something like "letting the free market decide"

I think it was Abercrombie and Fitch who gave consumers a choice a few years ago.
Bangladeshi made hoodies were $40, and USA ones were $50. Failed miserably, in a real hurry.
