I just read the San Diego Chamber forecast and I didn’t know if I should’ve been crying or laughing. I found so many inconsistent opinions about the health of the present and future economy that I was confused throughout most of the statement. On one hand it says that the population will increase by 10 – 12% then on the other hand it observes that only 1% will be middle income earners.

I like the apocalyptic “Perfect Storm” theory. I’ve never seen it described so nonchalantly. It appears they tried to stay upbeat throughout the paper with a lot of smoke and mirrors, however, the Chamber looks as confused as all of us and appears to be in a nervous “wait and see” mode for the next year.
