The Recession Depression Scheme
I am afraid that I have no interesting insights on anything uplifting to offer. It seems the only thing that people can talk about these days consists in complaining. If you look at the recent debates, it is all about our economic downturn, knife crime, technology encroaching our law and our intelligence and to top it off the overwhelming threat of terrorism. What benefit does this moaning have? People are becoming depressed! We are suffering from a "recession depression" now that is a depressing state of affairs.We cannot even seek light relief via reading or watching or listening to various forms of media like music or film without finding some overarching legal issue or social deprivation at stake. Romeo and Juliet ancouraging knife crime? What a load of baloney!
Maybe this is just a way that the nanny state is operating deliberately to get us to submit all power to them. They first of all make us depressed, by giving grave sounding names to the time we live in, they then tell us that we cannot read certain material, they then raise university fees so that people cannot afford to be educated - surely the next step in this evil plan is to put us all on opium and have a docile workforce just to increase those in power's stature.
So how can we beat this cycle? How can we beat the "recession depression"? My advise, get educated and cop on! The economy; what is this but a mere number system? Read what you like, listen to what you like, watch what you like. Most importantly, spend what you like and borrow what you like, because those numbers are not worth your emotional happiness.
