It's only a recession for the working classes.
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

Those fireworks displays were also – and specifically – for the entertainment of the working classes, Min.

Well, if that's the face of a recession these days, they've certainly learnt how to sell a recession to the grimy masses, haven't they? Beats storming the Bastille!

The Romans used to call it "Bread and Circuses" and for the exact same purpose.

Like football (both versions) and all other major sports matches. Smokescreens. Misdirection.
