Participant[quote=kewp][quote=paramount]From Cramer:
3. Enough of the hysteria: there will be no depression.
[/quote]Oh great, its a sure thing now.
And according to shadowstats, we’ve been in a recession since December 05.
I have to admit, it sure doesn’t feel like one. Things are slowing down a bit in the city, but businesses still seem pretty busy.
Is the worst yet to come?[/quote]
I think how it feels depends on your circumstances. One of my grandfathers made his fortune during the depression. The other saw his ivy league education get thrown away because he graduated in 1930… no jobs.
If you have a job you probably don’t feel it. If you’ve recently lost your job, you know how few jobs there are out there.
My husband’s an architect, recently laid off. Look at the aiasandiego.com website for their classifieds… Typically there would be dozens of job ads. Now there is an office sublet and someone selling drafting tables and printers. It’s grim if you’re unemployed.

Participant[quote=davelj][quote=Allan from Fallbrook]Dave: You do realize you’re the “deified member of the banking class” that Breezie’s referring to, right?
You grasping, greedy plutocrat, you![/quote]
But of course. And all this time I assumed I was the only person who viewed myself as a deity. Welcome to my growing flock, one and all!!
Now, pardon me while I head off to the Ecclesiastical Supply Store for some collection plates. I mean, times are tough, right?[/quote]
This made me spit out my coffee, laughing.

Participant[quote=nostradamus]13. Property taxes are going up.
link[/quote]
As I commented in another thread that you posted this… Why is this news? The way Prop 13 works, taxes go up around 2% every year. Even when property values go up 20%, even when property values decline 20%. Because prop 13 sets the assessed value at your purchase price, and increments it based on that… NOT on current market.
