“Jumping off a cliff only hurts when you hit bottom”

Can’t you just lie about the numbers—won’t that stop the fall?

“Jumping off a cliff only hurts when you hit bottom”

Unless you bounce off the mountain a few times on the way down. A recession is a business cycle contraction when there is a general decline in economic activity. Recessions generally occur when there is a widespread drop in spending. It can be caused by a few different reasons:

1. Loss of Confidence in Investment and the Economy.
2. High Interest Rates.
3. A Stock Market Crash.
4. Deregulation.
5. Poor Management
6. Wage-Price Controls
7. Post-War Slowdowns
8. Credit Crunches
9. When Asset Bubbles Burst
10. Deflation

We already have, or are going to these items right now. Tack that on to the devaluation of money itself when it is printed and it destroys the worth balance of the dollar (shrinks it), and it adds to the already growing cost of goods for the consumer unnaturally. It’s all domino effect and can be re-initiated each time someone does something else, almost anything they are doing now, anywhere in the chain even if that domino already fell.
