I am trying understand why an admittance that a word or two was a little hyperbolic . . . is "walking back" the primary crux of the point being made in total.

Credit card delinquency rate and auto loan default now at 2008 levels

Best economy ever though.

Fed losses continue, and in addition to borrowing over $8 trillion dollars more. President Jill Biden’s administration spent $1 trillion in Treasury reserves. That’s $9 trillion plus in deficit spending. Used to prop up GDP
