    I thought it was the dotcom crash and great recession, in addition to the ones you mentioned war on “terror” and pandemic.

      2000 dot com crash, 2008 housing bubble, 2020 COVID recession, 2025 tariff downturn and looming crash. (That’s not including the recessions from the 80’s and 90’s)

      I count Afghanistan and Iraq separately, they were two very different wars and fought for different reasons. Afghanistan was because of 9/11, Iraq was oil and regime change.
