Financial Crisis

This financial crisis is nothing new. Serious recessions have been happening for ever since 1926. Personally I don't own any stock so I cant say that I feel any ones pain nor can I claim to know how they feel. What I can say and What I think the author of this article is trying to point out is that recessions are always cause for worry because money is needed to live and while these recessions come and go everyone does have a severe impact on almost everyone in one way or another. Almost any other news source would say just about the same thing. Its simple our economy has always fluctuated and will continue to fluctuate. If I could ask a financial advisor one thing though it would be: why has our economy suffered so many recent recessions instead of its normal pattern?
