“People think of a business cycle, which is a boom followed by a recession and then automatic stabilizers revive the economy. But this time we can't revive. The reason is that every recovery since 1945 has begun with a higher, and higher level of debt. The debt is so high now, that since 2008 we've been in what I call, debt deflation.” PeopleThinkingReasonLevelsEconomyHigherDebtRecoveryCyclesRecessionsHigher LevelReviveDeflation Author:Michael Hudson
“People have to pay so much money to the banks that they don't have enough money to buy the goods and services they produce.

“If you have to pay about forty to forty-three percent of your income for housing, you also have to pay fifteen percent of your paycheck for the FICA for Social Security wage withholding. You have to pay medical care, you have to pay the banks for your credit card debt, student loans. Then you only have about twenty-five or thirty-five percent, maybe one-third of your salary to buy goods and services.
