3. Many employers cut wages and laid off employees, which caused a further decline in consumption, and the recession became more serious.
4. Unions were unwilling to cut wages, while hidebound corporations found it more convenient to raise prices than to cut their own costs.
5. The agreement to cut wages, an extremely rare occurrence in the public sector, gave the treasury an excuse to take its time in reaching a new wage agreement for public sector employees, which obviously would have meant raising wages.
