newly destitute relatives....I think it is at least 18 months out before any
end/turn around even begins....Stop buying "stuff" and you damage the economy
further, buy "stuff" and you end up in credit counseling.....best to have had a
long term plan which side-stepped most of the fallout of a dropping
economy....20-20 hindsight.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Ouch! 5.1% this quarter, 3..8% last quarter. Is the worst still to
come?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>That seems like a huge drop in the number of jobs, and GDP for just

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I think we are going to be in a depression unless this slows and
stops in the next few months. </DIV>
