SYNTHESIS

ECON 211B

Synthesis

      to bring separate units into one cohesive whole

September 3, 2011 was basically our first meeting. We had a lot of suggestions, ideas and we had a hard time finalizing what we should pick as our concept for our role play. Then finally, we came out with Recession.

Through the help of Philbert Selda, we had the final decision of making our role play informative but also funny at the same time. We thought of making it just a comedy but it wouldn't do such justice about the fact that we should talk about our economy.

So we came up with showing the effects of Recession, the before and after of a family so rich, then because of such tragedy, they became poor. 

The 1st scene would be: Family Scene with luxurious life

Before, they would eat at Mcdo without worrying about the bill.

2nd scene: Business Scene-prosperous business with plenty of works, good deals and trade.
Nivea Silvestre- Boss of the company
Ricky Julius Segarino- Employee
Moses Guerrero- Employee

3rd scene: Flash Report (signs of recession ,banks closing, stock market falls)
Pamela de Castro- Anchor

4th scene: Effects of recession* company- lay off workers, bankrupt, no trade. 

5th scene: Effects of recession* Family- less allowance, unemployment. 
Now, families eat street foods even if they like it or not because they have no longer budget to eat at expensive restaurants.

6th scene: Government Scene* They conduct a meeting to decide what to do to combat recession.
Philbert Selda- Senate President
Angelica Carmelotes- Senator
Draker Jan Badilles- Representative 

Recession can be solved through Fiscal Policy. The decreasing of Tax rate or Increasing Government Spending. Fiscal Policy is a huge help to combat Recession.

~In the long run, things going back to normal (families able to provide necessities, new companies opening, good trade)

Last Scene: Family prays and thanks God for the recovery. =)
