.Recessions are used as excuses to redistribute wealth. Recessions help criminals make clean, plausibly-deniable getaways.
In practice, a recession is an economic downturn caused and created by the main benefactors of capitalism (banks, businesses and governments.) These select derelicts need recessions to reset prices of goods and services, especially labor prices – their biggest expense.
Another main use of a recession is to strip wealth (money, real estate,* and other paper and hard assets) from individuals. This is necessary because when individuals have financial wealth, they are harder to control with slavery-for-hire schemes. Wealth removed from people helps keep them and their descendents dependent on the system for years to come.
A recession allows people to be discriminated against legally and fired. Because unemployment is more rampant, so also is there even more blatant discrimination in hiring practices. Employers are able to say people are unemployable. Employers are able to have people accept far less because of the number of applicants.
A recession allows employers to illegally reduce their labor costs legally. At the same time, they can use fear and other psychological warfare methods to get more work out of remaining employees for the same or lower wages, and often, concessions in benefits.
A recession allows the value of pensions** and other retirement accounts to be reset because investment values have also recessed. This is necessary because all those who are promising to pay retirements, don't have the money to pay up and won't. As a result, the next baby boom will be the collective cries of retirees.
A recession is a way to quickly redistribute wealth in the form of government programs to restore the economy they helped put into recession. The arsonists are now “putting out” the fire.
In the meantime, interest rates on savings accounts almost disappear, which harms individuals. At the same time, interest rates on money loaned to banks and business also disappears, which benefits them.
In other words, nearly everything that builds wealth or brings income for individuals is reduced while nearly everything that is an expense is increased, including taxes. There is pressure on both ends making it even harder to make ends meet.A recession is not only financial warfare, a recession is also psychological warfare that makes people more fearful and more desperate and more fighting amongst themselves and backstabbing while the 1% laughs and continues to redistribute wealth.
They are laughing because their major expense (labor costs) is reduced, they are getting more work done and they are getting free money directly and free money through tax breaks and other incentives to “stimulate the economy.” This glad greedy behavior can be used to identify a sign for the next, must-come recession. A recession is always preceded by a party atmosphere in the country. This is necessary to draw the local yokels into the streets to spend freely to help raise higher the bubbly feeling that things are getting better. The price of something is hyped up and wealth is swiped up by pickpockets working the party chaperoned by governments.
In the meantime, governments are providing fewer services. They are also, getting their constituency to accept any and everything in the name of saving the economy such as fracking, uranium mining, oil pipelines, more external military, more internal military (police), etc.
A recession is a way to relax regulations on things that would be a harder moral sell during “good times.” Fearful and desperate people are more than willing to settle for short term benefit that reduces the longevity of the benefit.
A recession is one of many tools used to help maintain the status quo (keep capitalism from collapsing).
All this fakery is necessary because the basic economic model was unsustainable from conception. It is based on the character flaws of consuming and taking more and more resources from everyone and everything while providing less and less value in return. It is an economic model based on debts, deficits and psycho-sociopathy. The economic model is not based on supply and demand. It is based on the need to mass produce a supply of lies we don't understand.
A recession redistributes wealth in the same way that a jack-leg contractor, gets us to pay to live in the house and then patches up their own shoddy construction long enough to continue robbing and terrorizing us while we work even harder to keep the house in order to always be under the threat of losing the ability to live in a shack and always obliged to pay to other people, a property tax on something we supposedly own.
A recession is a method used by the recessive-aggressive character-defective to take advantage of the collective.
*(In regards to real estate, a recession is a way to rapidly gentrify prime real estate inside the country and outside the country. Foreclosures are a necessary part of this process.)
**Greece, the origin of Eurasian society, is a test-case for wealth redistribution. Historically Eurasians hearken to Greece as who they are. In current times, this connection is being used to see how people react to blatant theft and to get the rest of the world ran by Eurasians prepared for the same thing on a much larger scale. This whole thing is a spiritually-befitting fate.
