But the stereotypical comments kind of surprise me. You know I expect a higher standard from your readers, you KNOW this. Listen, recession, depression, money... Here's the deal, wherever you happen to live, and with whatever wonderfully corrupt government you happen to be pissin' at, there's gonna be ups and downs. Put it into perspective, though: Communism was a fuck up, it doesn't work. Tyrannical dictatorships kinda get frowned upon. Monarchies are honorary, holding no real power... And typically end up being a fuckin' free market economy anyway. You tell me, the dollar drops a bunch (and you an' I both know the sombitch has), the thing about it is we're still better off than some eastern block cunt-ry, havin' to sit in line fer fuckin' bread. So all you bad-haircut hipster take note... Next time you go and buy anything, whether it's a fuckin' biodegradable thongback, or a vegan lunch, know that the only reason you're able to complain about the shit you complain about is because of our shitty economy, and the foolish and banal products you buy. Whether that's here or in a damn computer program. Now, when all you dumb fucks get what you think is best, and everyone is sodomizing trees and fuckin... sharing, and everything goes to pot, and you don't have enough dough to go and get the OS upgrade on your case-modded iMac, and have to trade away your godawful collection of eighties electronica LP's you so painstakingly collected over the years to get your protein-and-bean paste to live another week... Don't fuckin' call ol' uncle R.T., who decided it was a good idea to spend and buy and save as much as possible. I'll be livin' in my beloved libertarian dystopia, with all the guns and meat a man could desire. And I'll be happy, and you'll be paler and more hungry than you are typically. Sera-darlin’,

It breathes in and breathes out. Recessions or poor times certainly hurt (not the rich). Maybe this will be a time to think of simpler living, the health of the earth, social justice and electing someone who can lead rather than appear to lead to be elected. Breathe in!

Analysts (are supposed to) describe definitions of what a recession is, but the people don't read these, they read the word "recession" in the newspaper headings. And they read about and watch programs on TV about people not being able to pay mortgage terms, about decreasing house prices etc. It smells and it walks like recession. What is reality? What the scholars dictate or what the meaning of the word is to the big public? Both analysts and the people are right.
