Deflationary Vortex

A steep general decline in prices, often caused by a reduction in the money supply or credit, that creates economic recession or depression, which in turn results in greater deflation. A vicious circle, where the problem is its own cause.
A Deflationary Vortex occured in Japan during the 1990's, brought about by decreases in price that lead to lower production, which in turn lead to lower wages and demand, which lead to further decreases in price

Polar Vortex

A new weather phenomenon, where arctic weather gets pushed towards more southbound regions of planet Earth, and the arctic regions get much milder weather.

Scientists haven't been able to give the public a probable cause for it, so people speculate it has something to do with climate engineering, or green house gasses screwing up the upper atmosphere.
"Shit dawg! Since when does Chicago and Detroit have North Pole weather?"
"Pfff man - Since those climate engineer mothufuckas been screwin around with the upper atmosphere and trying to cool down North America with weird-ass Polar Vortex technological shit, yo."
