In today's economic downturn, many people complain about the difficulty of employment, work or life pressure, and some even think that life is very difficult now.
As everyone knows, the real hard days are much more miserable than the current life, and the cruelty is far beyond our imagination
Take the global economic crisis of 1929 and 1933, for example, although it was concentrated in the Western capitalist countries, because the economic ties between the countries became more and more close.
Therefore, in such an international background, many countries have been affected to varying degrees, and on the whole, there are three main outstanding performances.
First of all, the first aspect is the increase in the number of unemployed, the employment pressure is unprecedentedly large, the reason for this situation is because after the outbreak of the economic crisis, many people began to frantically sell ** back funds, and the false prosperity was also shattered.
This led to a rapid collapse, and the major enterprises behind it also declared bankruptcy one after another, and even banks were caught up in it and were forced to close their doors.
In this situation, more and more workers are unemployed, the number of bankrupt families is soaring, and many people are desperately fighting for a job where they can make a living in order to support their families.
But there are so many jobs in the midst of an economic crisis, and many companies are able to stay afloat, and they are making mass layoffs to reduce operating expenses.
For a while, the number of unemployed people is increasing, and the streets are full of people looking for work, some people do not hesitate to put down their bodies to work as coolies or odd jobs, you must know that some of these people are white-collar workers in enterprises, and some may be senior technicians.
But in the face of the economic crisis, all this is useless, after all, job opportunities have been greatly reduced, market demand has shrunk severely, and many top talents have become useless.
Even housewives had to come out to do some part-time jobs to make ends meet, you can imagine how depressed the social economy was at that time, and the employment pressure was not much greater than now, you must know that people now choose jobs more freely, and there is more room for choice.
The second aspect is the scarcity of goods, the loss of the purchasing power of money, which is also a direct effect of the economic crisis, because many enterprises have gone bankrupt and workers have been laid off, which has led to the stagnation of social production.
This also led to a sharp decline in the production of various products, although many Western countries at that time gave social relief to a certain extent, hoping to help people through the economic crisis.
But the actual effect is not very good, after all, the number of unemployed people and bankrupt families is too much, the streets are full of homeless people, in order to meet these people's three meals a day, it is definitely impossible to achieve financial expenditure alone.
At the same time, the economic crisis has also led to serious damage to the market economy, and the currency has lost its purchasing power, such as in the United States during the Great Depression, a sheep can only be sold for 1 dollar, but it needs 1 to be transported to the market$1.
More than 200 apples can be sold for only 40 cents, and more than 30 liters of wheat are worth only 20 cents ......
Such a chaotic market economy has seriously damaged the interests of farmers, which has led to many farmers pouring grain and milk into the river rather than **, after all, they have to pay high freight costs when they are transported to the market, and they do not make money at all, but also lose money.
It is precisely because of the occurrence of this phenomenon that the shortage of materials has been further exacerbated, and at this time, the West is also trying to change this status quo through macroeconomic regulation and the implementation of social assistance.
However, the distribution of free food will further disrupt the market order, and at the same time, it will also create an over-reliance on relief and a reluctance to consume, which will only exacerbate the continuation of the economic crisis.
In some areas, money has even lost its ability to act as a medium of exchange, so the money in people's hands at that time has become a pile of waste paper, which cannot be used to buy goods, and can only return to the original barter.
The last aspect is that the problem of social security is particularly prominent, and the social order is extremely unstable, and the reason for this situation is very simple, when people do not have a job to make ends meet, or when they cannot solve the problem of food and clothing, they will have a sense of resistance.
This is also a manifestation of being forced to be helpless, only through violent resistance can you win your own rights and interests, otherwise you can only wait for death.
And for some people who live on the streets, they have nothing, and they have nothing to worry about, out of the instinct of survival, they will rob the street and open the zero-yuan purchase mode in major shopping malls.
With the emergence of this phenomenon, the social crime rate increased sharply during the economic depression, and the security problems in various places were particularly prominent, and countries were powerless to do anything about it.
After all, there are so many unemployed vagrants, there are so many criminal cases that they can't catch them at all, and in the end they can only choose to "lie flat", and some even want to be arrested by the police and imprisoned, so that they don't have to be cold and starve outside.
It can be seen what kind of bad impact and social chaos the economic crisis has bringed, so in this comparison, the social environment we are in is not thousands of times better than this, so in the face of the current economic environment, do not be too depressed, and go on with hope.
