THE GREAT RECESSION

THE GREAT RECESSION was a period of economic downturn that began in or around the year 2008 with the crash of Housing Market and subsequent slowdown of economic activities. This period saw an increase in unemployment and a major slowdown in the start of new businesses.

Mari Solinski and Zandra Niko found it difficult to find meaningful employment after their graduation from Texas A&M University-Kingsville due to this economic downturn which resulted in their questionable employment history prior to joining the staff of THE WEEKLY BRAHMA. Dr. Lola Alotta alluded to it during her interview with Major Sampson P. Morton (Issue #1: Origins).
