This Old Economist: “Economic vocabulary change”

We used to drive world economic growth relentlessly on the back of cheap oil and easy credit.

 [“We've had a good hard drive since the 1940s”]

The times, and economic vocabulary, they are a-changin’.


OUT   -   driving  relentless  unlimited  easy





IN   -   weak  slowing  recession  dampening  shrinking  contract

Slowly, reluctantly, and deep in financial and environmental debt we will change the Canadian or American Dream.
