What's The Deal With The Economy Of NYC?


If you listen closely to the dialogue of the original show and of SVU, you find that one constant theme is how bad the economy is; in fact one type of character that appears regularly is someone who has had the misfortune of being laid off by the ,,recession''.
What bloody recession is this, which apparently has been around since 1990? Is the financial situation of the Capital City of the World really in that seemingly eternal state of crisis?

Well, after 9/11 the economy in NY and the US did fall off and we were in a severe recession from about 2007 to 2009, but it has gotten better. However, some people have never been able to find work again after being laid off.
