General Discussion

These fuckers love rescissions, especially now. The richest today aren't like the richest during the great depression. Those wealthy folks, including manufacturing giants, had their capital tied up in income producing assets like well manufacturing. In this service economy we live in today, a recession, deep recession or even a depression will only hurt the smallest (which is the largest majority) of those that provide the services. Independent construction contractors of all types, small restaurateurs, independent kraft brewers of all types etc, you get the drift. Those that already own 90% of the wealth will just scoop up those foreclosed buildings (whether they be homes, or small apartments and small business's) at pennies on the dollar to the point where they own 90% of the buildable "plantable" land in the country. The rest will be what THEY need to provide high end services to themselves and to live upon in giant extravagant compounds behind protected security for themselves. Everyone else will be forced to pay them to have somewhere to sleep and to work at.

It will probably last 2 maybe 3 generations before wash rinse repeat, revolution then the meek shall inherit the Earth again doomed to repeat that cycle over another millennia. (except the planet will be toast this time around )

I call it The cycle of Oligarchy
