Depression?

When does a recession officially become a depression? Does it have to do with the unemployment rate?

Re: Depression?

I don't know the EC (economically correct) answers to those questions.

But according to mainstream media it would be whatever Obama says it is.

Re: Depression?

I think it has to do with how many consectutive down quarters that we have, also combined with other factors including unemployment and etc. But I also agree with Jaxon,

SEEK YE FIRST OBAMA!

Re: Depression?

When does depression become obsession? When a bunch of Conservatives get sick of the topic and start complaining how obsessed everyone is with it!

Re: Depression?

I think there are enough people here who take a certain gleeful delight in proclaiming that the END is here.

It officially becomes a depression when the doctor prescribes prozac.

Re: Depression?

It becomes a "Depression" after we've come through it.

We will look back and wonder and discuss these crazy times.

It is funny how when more and more people lose their jobs and more and more major companies close their doors while the price of basic living continues to rise and rise that people just keep on complaining and being obsessed with the subject.

People should use their new found extra time to talk about how good things are getting.
