Ecofodder

Ecofodder is the labour force (fodder) that stimulates the base economy.
Ecofodder working conditions are described as low wages and long hours, often unpleasant and mind-numbing working conditions.

This refers to people who have no skills, have to take whatever jobs they can get at whatever rate, have almost no rights. Are very disposable.
Street sweepers, call centre operators, hamburger joint staff, door-to-door salesmen, clerks, people who hand out pamphlets.

They are the lowest tier of labour (fodder) required to generate the economy, hence ecofodder.

Ecolda

While Ecolda may present as a common cold in a female's body; Ecolda will present in a male's body as a virus scientifically undecernible from Ebola, a virus that causes severe bleeding, organ failure, and can lead to death. Ecolda is known to cause a grown ass man to whimper, ugly cry (snot bubbles are not uncommon), sudden onset unilateral paralysis of pride, mumbling, chronic severe complaining.

To alleviate symptoms the "man" should continue to complain and draw comparison to how much more sick he is than when his wife had the same thing. Blind, clinical studies have shown that long sessions of feeling sorry for yourself can speed up recovery by ~3%. A treatment developed in 1955 called "man up and stop being a little bitch" was long thought to be the panacea for this treacherous illness, but in 2015, it was decided that complaining can fix anything and everything; this explains the sudden uprise of known cases of Ecolda in 2016 and 2017.
"When he returned from San Diego, he had Ecolda so his wife had to call in sick to work"

Economic Intercourse

A form of economic stimulus that is considered long and hard, as recommended by a former, massive member of the US Senate. Requires many stimulus packages to come on and/or be pounded out. May require fingering someone else to take the blame if it fails and we need to pull out.
