Hard Times

"Hard Times" refers to periods of significant economic difficulty characterized by widespread unemployment, poverty, and financial hardship for many people. These times often result from economic downturns, industrial decline, or financial crises. During such periods, resources are scarce, and individuals and communities struggle to meet basic needs like food, shelter, and healthcare. Hard times highlight the fragility of economic stability and often lead to social and political challenges as societies seek ways to recover and rebuild.
