Recession – viral fever – My perspective to so called threat (KRISHNA T.K)


I fell sick some time back, the routine cold, cough and fever. While lying on the bed i tried to link recession and fever, the similarites and differences . I immediately opened my laptop and after googling a little I came to understand that they are not too different.
Fever is caused due to release of certain chemicals by white blood cells as they attack invaders. Getting this once in a while is considered healthy. It is said when the body has taken too much fever is a way to cleanse the system and throw out all unwanted things. This is what got me to blog this post.

Recession, you must have heard this word a zillion times in the last few months. Quite frankly it annoys me. Your local TV station and news paper repeatedly banging it down your head, you bank putting up posters of warning, you boss enlightening you on cost cutting measures and most importantly you cut on the daily dose of Vodka (recession=cuts on expenses, booze included) . Recession this, recession that (can you please shut the F#$@ up). Strange as it may seem, bad times can also be good for health. When the world markets explode in volumes, banks give out loans at random, people spend mindlessly, bureaucrats and politicians make more money , its obvious that the whole bubble is going to explode….. Some body has to step into stop the mess. And viola, we got recession.

This way recession makes people and economies realize that they got them selves in a big mess. You may think I am crazy with my so called theory, but hell if they can have their own, why not me. Just before you get a fever you know you have eaten a lot of rubbish, you have not been exercising, you bounced out of your routine, you have been drinking and partying frequently. Then the body says ' hey you better stop or else am gonna mek you ". Slowly the fever hits you and then you say “I got to take care of my Health”.

Same with recession the whole world is exploding with money, companies balance sheets flourish, stock markets on the bear. But some one knows that the whole shit house is gonna explode like a big bag of poop. In any case what is the world cribbing about, most of them have made hell a lot of money, its the poor who are f!@#$ , not the rich. The middle class are there just to scare the wits of the poor and make rich feel better.

Once the recession started Banks started to take caution in giving loans, Governments start spending more they cut interest rates, gave more stimulus (anti biotics), People cut down on unhealthy expenses. Is'nt this a little like recession . I think its healthy for any thing to have a bad time, and so my good buddies fever and recession are not too different.

Wired me huh :)

Think about it am I not in some way right ?
