Economic Meltdowns

Despite the efforts of governments, companies, and individuals for the past several centuries, human economies have always gone through ups and downs.  Despite what the news media reports, however, most of the economic swings we experience today are not nearly as bad as the swings people experienced before the era of bank security and government price controls on food.  While it might not seem as if this is always true for each individual, it's important to realize that there are ways to make it through most economic disasters.  In fact, there are always people who come out of these dips in the economy better off than they were before.
