How Google will cause the next recession
There are two ways I can write this article
1) Write an article with hordes of bullshit and links and references and crap from all over the web
2) Outline the facts, predict the future and leave everything open to debate
Much as I hate it, time permits me to risk the 2nd one.
Q) Firstly, what caused the financial recession of 2008?
A) Greed.
And here is how.
(If you’ve heard about derivatives, CDOs and other cooked up terminology to explain “greed”, forget it. It’s much simpler!)
Normal case of someone taking loan from a bank for buying a house. House cost $100,000.
Q) Now, how will Google cause a recession?
A) Greed AND Stupidity
After having followed Google as a company for quite a while, I can say that
1) In the above infographic, we can replace “Investment Bank” with “Google”
2) The “Rating Agency” can be replaced by general public – a.k.a Google fanboys
3) The Investors are people who have current or future obligations to invest in Google’s “technology”
So…
Wait and watch.
P.S. Thanks Usma for the great discussion. And coffee 
P.P.S. An info-graphic is not *that* difficult once you put your mind to it :)
Let's see if you are as good a prophet as a writer!
IT's begun … ;)
Q. Recessions generally happen when investment banks/financial institutions are involved. Because when they get stuck with assets, they stop investing. Right?
But even if Google does get stuck, how can it affect an economy? Don't understand this part…. but then how can a dhakkkan understand :D
Tereko samajh nahi aayega… The recessions in the past have been caused due to Oil and Wars. Not Banks. Bank(ruptcy) is the result of recession. Not the cause.
I told you a dhakkan takes time to understand….. not everybody has the genius of Arnav Sud. But maybe I do get the track now. Google getting stuck might cause financial institutions to lend/invest more cautiously ——-is that how?
BTW: Why i asked this question was because this downturn was directly linked with home loans, neither oil nor wars.
