economic bubble

A phenomenon in economics in which too much loose cash finds its way into an area of the market, e.g., stocks, housing, dot-com, etc., resulting in a buying frenzy that leads to wildly inflated prices. Economic activity in those areas affected is not sustainable in the long run, so large numbers of late investors eventually go bankrupt.

We were warned of an economic bubble, but bought high-priced shares anyway thinking we could unload them on some poor sap before the bubble burst. Boy, were we wrong!

fake economic savior

A term used to describe the Shyster in Chief as he postures himself to appear as though he’s savin’ the asses of those who’ve waited desperately for some sign of economic relief.

I understand that right now he wants our vote more than he wants us poor fuckers to die, but I will still consider voting for this fake economic savior ‘cause he’s buying my groceries!

Economic Draft

Civilian men and women after being layed off from their job broaden there horizon in the hunt for new work and settle with the U.S military. They do this because of the lack of job security,Benefits,Growth and oppurtunity in their community's due to the economic strain. Even if there is no military "draft" in place it is perceived this way due to the high number of people signing up for enlisted employment which will include steady pay,benefits and room to grow.

John " Damn, If they reinstated the draft I would move to canada"

Willy-"Well technically were in an economic draft, People are signing up because they lost there jobs to do the economy.


John-"Im glad I still have my job"

economic anxiety

a coded phrase used to exonerate racist whites for their support of political candidates, legislation, and other policy that would reinforce racial hierarchies in the U.S. that are the legacies of colonialism and slavery.

These Trump supporters are not racist, they just have a lot of economic anxiety.
