A recession will also throw a very large number of people out of work, and that is going to impact the less well off.

Convince me it will? The less well off are just above the welfare line as it is. They can work 20 less hours a week and not see a big drop in income.

It's the boomers a recession will hurt. People on minimum wage actually do shit for a living.
