This essay sheds light on what is an economic depression, explicates how the perpetual economic depression started in 1935, elucidates what has caused the economy to remain in a perpetual economic depression, and expounds upon how the economy is affected by being in a perpetual economic depression. An economic depression is a prolonged period of significant economic decline. "A depression is a dramatic and sustained downturn in economic activity, with symptoms including a sharp fall in economic growth, employment, and production. A depression can be defined as a recession that lasts longer than three years or that results in a decline of at least 10% in annual GDP". During the period of an economic depression, an economy is all the more vulnerable to succumb to gross domestic product contraction. During the period of an economic depression, an economy is also all the more susceptible to succumb to a decrease in economic output. During the period of an economic depression, an economy is also all the more prone to succumb to a high unemployment rate. During the period of an economic depression, it can also be all the more cumbersome for people to receive job offers from companies for real private sector jobs based on voluntary demand. During the period of an economic depression, it can also be all the more arduous for indebted people who work real private sectors employee jobs based on voluntary demand to be able to generate enough revenue to be able to pay off their outstanding debts. During the period of an economic depression, real private sector employers are all the more inclined to implement fractional hiring practices. Real private sector employees are inapt to be offered anywhere close to 40 hours per week for their shift time hours by their real private sector employer. Real private sector employees who work real private sector employee jobs on a part-time basis for a real private sector employer do not receive overtime pay.
