There is some "noise" going around that rich people create recessions and blow up economies periodically in order to buy things cheaply and become even richer on the way back up. Yes. Rich people do take advantage of economic down turns. However, they do not create them. How does this sort of hogwash ever even get any traction or serious thought?

Economic design by nature is so fucked up that it has to reset periodically. I agree with @Bragato that it's usually at the same time time when excessive wealth accumulation is created. So it's easier to blame those instead of trying to address the elephant in the room - interest based economy
