People claiming there is a boom are likely government officials

Low-level government officials all share a pathological mindset that they only rise to prominence when the country goes bankrupt, so they are people who actually hope for an economic collapse.
It is deplorable to give tax money to such people.
With 28% of listed companies being marginal firms and corporate bankruptcies at an all-time high,
how can anyone claim we are in a boom?
Let's see how those government officials fare, thinking they'll still get their salaries even if the country goes under.
