A downward spiral
A nice/political/doublespeak way of defining something (see financial crisis) in a positive-feedback loop heading for destruction. An impending shitstorm

It came as Jean-Claude Trichet pointed the finger at financial markets calling on them to refrain from putting pressure on banks to hold on to more capital as that was aggravating the economic downturn.
The European Central Bank President said: “It is not our position, and we will do all that we can to pass the message that we are not in agreement with that. That would augment the pro-cyclicality of the present period.”

Get the pro-movemug. The attitude or philosophy that counts all human life as sacred and inviolable, from the moment that life exists, at conception, especially since the baby is alive and growing, and different in every way from either parent. Those who are pro-life reject abortion and euthanasia as murder.
The abortionist was intent on continuing his bloodthirsty destruction of babies for many years, and the law was doing nothing to prevent it. Being pro-life, we were left with a choice of taking one life, or turning our backs and allow the killing of thousands to continue. We dearly would have loved to take no life at all, but the abortionist, being a mass murderer, had prevented that choice from being available.

Get the Pro-lifemug. The uplifting of black people whether it’s financially or physically. Being pro-black means black everything. If you are dating outside of your race, then you can’t be considered pro-black. How can you be pro-black but have a white significant other? Simply put, you can’t be pro-black and sleep white.
