Because they economies of the larger more influential nations will be effected this time round I suspect there will be less austerity and more support from all the financial institutions tbh...
But its still going to be a painful recovery alright |

Yes let's hope they fire as much money at the problem as possible.. The years following 2008 were desperate.. Nobody wants to go back to those days |

As in the likes of Germany and France will be in as much need of financial support.
I hope the combined political influence of the larger economies will soften the blow when dealing with the IMF and central banks etc... |

Not quite the great depression!... This will be treated similarly to a world war so macro level debt forgiveness and a Marshall plan will be put in place until markets get back to some kind of equilibrium |

Not everyone is hurting because of this. Anyone with a public sector job is probably better off now than before due to less childcare and travel experience. The hospitality sector and tourism is fecked, construction is ok because it was at a very low base, agriculture is ok. The banks are in a good position after being so caution for so long, consumer sentiment is good, the government that was already fucked is more fucked so there is no real problem. The average person on the ground dose not give one fuck about national debt |

The person on the ground might "give one fuck" when they discover the concepts of how quantitative easing, zero interest rates, stagflation then Hyper inflation all work at the ground level 
History doesn't repeat itself, but it always rhymes...
Pleasant dreams  |

"Last night we counted 24 businesses for sale in our local area only. 24 what type of businesses?"
It doesn't matter. People have not enough income to sustain a livelihood and pay staffs wages and are trying to get out. |

Way back in 2008 when the Bertie Ahern led FF government used tax payers money to bail out Anglo Irish investment bank, and its super rich bond holders to the tune of €64 million.
Now are the banks gonna bail out the people? I doubt it somehow. |

Have a read of the economist Chris Martenson with a drink sometime about GDP measures, etc...
My go to guy is Robert T Kiyosaki. His podcast is direct, pragmatic and he leads by example
