The big economic gurus are all saying the economy is in for a recession, home prices are going to collapse. I hear people repeating this every day. They are laying off people "in anticipation" of economic disaster. They are trying to create a situation where the economy DOES collapse. The people with the most money would LOVE for the economy to collapse. That way they can buy another 2 million single family residences at 25 cents on the dollar. As long as people have money in their pockets and are spending it, the economy won't collapse. When big business starts laying people off to increase their profits, the slide will begin. Again.
