All these companies laying off workers and closing down plants and operations. Inflation is inevitable (because of the rise on food and gas)! This all coming before the SPENDING holiday season that many companies truly rely on!

Predictions:
(1) The Layoffs are going to be HORRENDOUS!
(2) With the layoffs come a DRASTIC decrease in consumer confidence and spending.
(3) The drop in consumer spending will lead to more layoffs and less hiring.
(4) We will see more independent contractors and part time workers than anytime in history!
(5) Hiring freeze will be the new NORM!!!
(6) TRUE unemployment will skyrocket! Even Faux unemployment will skyrocket!
(7) The roles of uninsured will be higher than ever!
(8) Yet the Dems PUSH amnesty because that will be all they have come 2014 elections!

Probably.


Hopey Changey.

I am just glad I work in legal/compliance with all these new regulations, specific Dodd/Frank and whatever the CFPB examination does, we are busy and growing. Scary with nearly 9% year to year growth project by year end (which is amazing for a mature market that we are in), it's amazing they annouced added regulatory costs will lead to lay offs!!!!

My division is still filling positions, but nowadays you never feel safe!

Can you define "HORRENDOUS" and "DRASTIC" so we have a comparison when the numbers come out?

Joke all you want about it, but I had to watch a good friend get walked out of the office today (along with 55 other workers in division) with his spirit ripped out him. He has two kids and stay at home wife and bills to pay!

This DEPRESSION is going to hit all of us either directly or with people we know! Joke all you want but REAL people are suffering because of this!
 
welcome to the "shared sacrifice" of socialism......everybody is equal......equally poor that is.....
 
Didn't we do this same thread the last time Obama got elected?
 
Still waiting on those definitions of HORRENDOUS layoffs and DRASTIC decrease in consumer confidence.

This is a prediction after all. We need specifics.

I don't want any waffling later like, "Any layoff is HORRENDOUS to the person who was laid off."

Do you know what a Depression is?

Maybe you could tell us so that we know what to be afraid of

Similar but different! The economy collaspe due to boneheaded policies and regulation started during the Clinton era, that were ignored by Bush and collasped in '07-'08!

Now things are collapsing, because of Obamacare and Dodd-Frank!!! Big difference!
 
So...no specificity to the prediction then.

This is so typical of psychics...

Everything old in new again.

Heading toward . . .I thought you rightists jumped onto the depression train when Rove had his election night breakdown.

It's severe type of recession!

It's sustained, long-term, drastic downturn in economic activity in a nation. They usually start as a recession, but as they get more severe it gets characterized as a depression. It is a more severe downturn than a recession. Some say it's part of the modern business cycle.

It's characterized by it's long-term; by sustained high increases in unemployment; lack of availability of credit, usually (but doesn't have to be) some banking or financial crisis (Dodd-Frank is CAUSING THIS TO BE MORE SEVERE); decrease in company output (you think these layoffs are going to increase or decrease output); consumers dry up and suppliers cut back on production and investment; large number of bankruptcies, both consumer and business; significantly reduced amounts of trade and commerce, especially foreign/overseas trade (believe we are seeing this now); a drop in GDP; as well as highly volatile relative currency value fluctuations (can you deny this isn't going to happen)!

Does that definition work for you! We already have HIGH unemployment and low economic output (what 1%)? With these new layoffs and hiring freeze, can you not see the economic slow-down morphing into a depression?

No, the GOP will step up and take the fall, just like it always does. It's not fun to be the only adult in the room.
