    Don’t you worry it’s gonna have a global impact againjudt like it did in 08. Imagine losing your job in Italy for instance cause some bankers got ultra rich in the US. What a dumb fucking world.

      I don’t think 2008 really had a significant effect in Australia. I don’t remember hearing much about it.

        A bunch of my friends were made redundant. Some had visas dependent on their work, employer sponsored and had to leave Australia. Heck, we call it the gfc as an acronym. We just didn’t have a general recession.

        I know plenty people who are currently homeless in Europe originally lost their job following the 2008 crash.
