I don't know how many people the article is writing about.

Most young people under 30 are heavily in debt.

Millions. A Depression cancels debt. That ia why I believe a Depression is coming. Sr Steve Keen said we have more Unpayable Debts than anytime in the past 500 years.

The key to discovering the economic cycles is to know why they happen. ;)

Depressions happen because we accumulate too many Unpayable Debts. The burden of interest and principle payments becomes unbearable.

The depression of the 1930s was caused by the Crash of '29. It was so bad that the brokers on Wall St. were jumping out of windows because they lost everything.

My Mom told me they all got coal in their stockings at Christmas time because the family could not afford to buy gifts for the children since they had no money. My maternal Grandfather did shoe repairs in the basement since they could not afford to bring them to the cobbler.

To make matters worse the FED contracted the money supply. And the United States of America went into Chapter 11 in 1933 and is still there today. Members of Congress are the receivers in that bankruptcy, ;)

The Crash of 1929 was an effect of too many Unpayable Debts. No more loans and the bubble bursts. The Depression did not start until 1931. From 29 to 31 we had a recession. We have an interest bearing currency. When we discharge debts in bankruptcy courts because they are unpayable, our money supply contracts and closes stores and factories causing massive unemployment. These are all effects of Unpayable Debts.
