Economic Crisis will change people view of morals and good behavior

[justdimin]

If crisis hits definately the stronger ones survive those who looking morals or try to behave good wount last long if anyone own company they might reduce the spendings try to find tax loop holes and will lower the wages, and those who got no job or options will do absoloutely everything.

I would't want to be times like this some store shop worker or keeper or security it could be one of the most dangerous job.

Economy is literally the number one thing people vote on, and one of the reasons why people do not like their president and change that person all around the world. Doesn't matter where you are from, if you have a bad economy, the first think they do is vote the current political party out, UK even had a period where they changed their president few times in just a year.

This is why it's quite obvious that whatever Trump is doing, he is doing with the comfort of knowing that he can't be voted out, because he is leaving no matter what, so he can send the nation to crash and nothing will change for him.

When crisis happens, people begin to look for ways to survive because that is the only way they can guarantee their livelihood, for some it gets so bad that their morals begin to deteriorate because they will be trying so hard to fit into the societal norm just to access survival. Economic crisis even change some national integrity, so individuals are obviously not too big for such to happen to. Sad thing is that some of these effects can later remain permanent on some of these individuals and even the Economic situation of some countries but then you can still choose not to allow that affect your own moral standard.

In a severe economic crisis situation will lead to a moral crisis because it is true that there will be pressure for someone to do something to survive, we can see that in areas where the poverty rate is high there will be more crime as evidence in validating such a situation, for those of us who are still very sane today and have a living economy then it is strongly recommended to keep living with high morals, do not make the reason for the crisis as a form of allowing ourselves to act outside of morals.
Today we can anticipate many crises that may occur so that we are not carried away in the future.

Economic crisis causes hardship in a country and hardship can cause a shift in lifestyle and social conditions of people in an environment. Economic crisis can lead to hunger where people finds it difficult to survive and are willing to do anything it takes just to get food to eat. Sometimes most persons resort into stealing which they’ve never done before in their lives. Although there are also a positive aspect of economic crisis in a country as it makes some people to sit up and work more harder for themselves.

Economic crises can strain peoples behavior and moral choices. While people struggle to meet their basic needs, priorities shift. Some may push boundaries out of survival instinct. I believe this situation triggers a shift away from the formal economy, the growth of the informal sector and an increase in petty crimes. I think, if state support is weak, businesses may push ethical boundaries to reduce costs and employees become insecure. If solidarity and social security in society are not strengthened an environment emerges where the strong survive and moral norms weaken...

There's truth in that, when people are under financial pressure, priorities change, and survival can come first. During hard times, you often see more people turning to informal work, cutting corners, or taking risks they normally wouldn't take. Not always because they want to, but because they feel they have no choice. But at the same time, crises don't affect everyone the same way. Some people lose stability, while others actually become more disciplined and careful with their actions.

I think the real factor is support. When there's weak support from the system, people are more likely to act out of survival. But when there's structure and help, it's easier to maintain order and values even during tough times.

Crisis going higher globally if people are hungry and need basic needs many will forget about morals or good behavior.
Shop and store keepers will be expecting more robberies more stealing thats for sure.
Financial crimes or soft fraud or scams including crypto scams nobody cant even investigate because police and law enforcement will be busy with real crimes.
Off course we will see more and more underground economy growing when goverment will get less and less tax funds and all the tax burden will be on

Morals are ever changing, at least in the most open and advanced societies, so what is bad yesterday may be good in ten years. You actually see the most economically successful countries are those which understand and apply this. Take parts of Europe for example, they were pretty strict with the laws of Christianity for a long time but have progressively gotten less religious over time, which means things like homophobia is less prevalent than it used to be. Attitudes to these things don't necessarily change overnight, even if the laws do and it can take generations or decades before it starts to become more accepted - but this is ability to adapt is a large part of what has made them such a desirable place to live.

Having a difficulty in economy, like high inflation, or high unemployment, or high rates, generally anything that makes things harder for regular people, means that you will live a worse life than before.

If you had great inflation rate like 2% or so, and then low interest rates, and very low unemployment, life is good in that country, the moment they all go up, the nation starts to have a lot worse and people live in a bad world and economically they fight to just be able to breath.

[Akbarkoe]

The economic crisis can indeed change mindsets, emotions, morals, and social habits, where it will be much worse, it will lead to a lot of criminal acts, in low economic data the crime rate will be high.
You can read this that it has an unavoidable relationship.

It is very important to maintain the economy, because it can be a wall for someone to get out of the potential of doing things that are not in good morals, the economic crisis is expected not to happen because it always coincides with the level of crime in an area, whether he steals or cheats and so on, there will be many actions that are beyond morals if the economy is down.

I would't want to be times like this some store shop worker or keeper or security it could be one of the most dangerous job.

I don't think the economy will get so bad that shopkeeping will become a risky job because of crime. Most advanced economy has enough financial and energy backup that will last for many months. They also have good security networks. Hopefully, the war in the Middle East wouldn't not cause such economic havoc which would lead to crime.

But I have to accept that poor economic conditions could lead to an increase in crime. When people don't have the means to survive, they might embrace crime.

The situation of the economic also contribute greatly to the increase in the rate of the insecurity that we are facing in the society. A lot of people are being affected by the crisis and it has impacted them negatively, and unemployment is also part of the things that contributed to the insecurity in the society. The fact is that some people can go to any extent to ensure that they are financially secure and stable even if it is unlawful or illegal such as theft, kidnapping, bandits, armed robbery, money laundering, bribery, and so on.

But still there are a lots of people who haven't change till date despite the effect that the crisis has on them. They still maintain their stand and engage in their normal daily life activities. And they are working so hard to bring out the best in them, and avoid every negativity.

Have you ever heard the saying that, when two elephants fight, it's the grass that suffers the heavy hit?

That is the reality with war when it happens the economic impacts will be far worse on the poor than they will be on the rich.

Rich nations are seeing a little increase in the percentage of fuel prices, but poor nations are already having a much higher impact and increase in the price of fuel prices than necessary.

especially the ultra rich, they might even benefit if they have private companies relating to fuel. some may have their hands on the stock market as well. the rich can continue life with minimal impact but the poor will no longer survive.

It has become very clear that rich nationals are usually beneficiaries of this wars and they somehow have plans for their people while the poor economy countries will still be struggling with the issues to be able to control its people and how the economy can grow, we can see that in the recent war, Asia countries are battling to the extent of declaring state of emergency but the rich west countries are only a dollar increased in price or below a dollar increase. Wiwo is right that when two elephants fight the grasses suffer for it.

Naturally morality strive and well kept in favourable economy, proper checking the record of most nation whose corruption record is high, morality is reduced because many are using all medium to survive,it is more of survival before morality. Human focus more on survive when there is hardship happen to be an economic breakdown where the government can't provide all the needs of the citizens many who have the means can hide some resources and war can also be an avenue of such, economy crisis bring a whole lots of crime in the society or any nation that morality suffer many blow before it survive .

What do we do then? Should we blame those fighting for survival by indulging in crime and immorality? Or should we blame the government for not being able to provide the basic needs if not all but at least that which can be able to put the citizens in a good condition better than worst condition? Economic crisis should be something not to wish for, survival will be an option over morality for lots of people and I guess that the blame will be on the government for incompetence, some can pretend to choose morality over survival in time of economic crisis not until they are found in such situation.

Yes that's the only concern of people because there is no other means for them to no if the government is good or not except from how their  economy will be would make them come to any conclusion, a president could do every other thing or neglect most of there duties they owe the masses but when they neglect the economy everybody would rise against them in making sure they don't bring the person into power again because they no that if the president cannot keep the economy together for everyone to embrace it means that even if they give the president chance for a next time he wouldn't give them the economy they want.

What do you expect from people when there is economic recession, Chrisis and inflation, of course many will not mind to forget about their good moral. Just like the saying goes that " a hungry man is an angry man" and an angry man is ready to do anything to survive. Those that involved into breaking and entry, high way rubber, kidnapper, those into organ harvesting, cyber crime and scam where once a good person before they became bad. We should expect more crimes if the economy does not getting better. Most of this problem would have been reduced if government did their job by providing more employment opportunity.

Its very realistic point that people faces the financial stress during crises or inflation or in any economic recession the main reason behinds that is when inflation increases or financial crises occurred then the prices of all type stuff and mainly the daily usage stuff is increased but the income of the people remains so then people struggling to meet their basic needs. its very proven quote

A hungry guy is an angry guy

because when people faces the financial crises they mentally very stressed and there behavior going aggressive due financial tensions. And also many innocent people may choose the track of robbery, kidnapping and many other crimes. Its not means that the crime way is right but crises may create the situations which forces the people to do that. And to control these situations government played a very important role by making strong and wise financial policies and through generate vaccines so in this way people becomes busy due to jobs and the crime rate is automatically decrease with time.

The rich continue to become richer because they know the playbook and all that they have is related to growing money. The businesses that they own and as well as the stocks market if ever they're also in it are generating them money. But the real winner here are those oil companies like in our country. No new supply yet for most of these companies and yet, they're the first ones to increase in our region. As they have received new stocks, they're not going to lower the prices because they understand the loophole of laws and the government has no control in them.

I totally agree that economic difficulties can increase crime rates, but matter of fact the world is filled with more good people than bad people, It is not wise to generalize that the economic crisis automatically makes people lose their morals, many people I meet are still afraid of sin and afraid of God. On hard economic time and crisis many people also hand in hand helping each other which mean they still have empathy and solidarity, Crisis can be a natural selection for good and bad people, but i believe majority of people choose survive legally and only a few choose crime way and all influence by law enforcement6 and institution quality, social trust and how the government is present for the people through community programs or policies that are pro community , and the most important think  government must play a role in providing jobs and economic stability. In my country although it is not evenly distributed , there are social safety net programs through subsidies and direct money assistance.

This is the sad truth when things are tough and the standard of living gets more tougher in a society. People tens to lose their morals and begins to do anything that they can do to survive. This is commonly known as the survival of the fittest where only organisms which are only strong enough to survive in live. Crime rate and all sorts of illegal things is always associated with economic hardship. You see men who has moral right and is genuine during this types of Time.


No matter what happens we should not allow our environment and the conditions that, we find ourselves not to affect us negatively because people are affected by their environment and change to things people that is opposite their what they were used to.

Economic crisis not only create  financial crisis but it also creates behaviour crisis to some class of the society. At this time as the world is facing globally disturbance in the economy, it is the poor who suffer badly because of it. Already living was challenging for them but this makes situation more worst for them. To meet their needs what are the options they have. It does not mean that they adopt wrong ways willingly but due to lack of available of resources and opportunities they push towards criminal acts. If the such economic crises continue for long time period , I feel then it push individual towards negativity that ultimately in the long run it weakened the society morally or ethically.
