Who will buy the good s made by these companies when none of us have good paying jobs to afford them. There is only so much refi money out there.

"none of us have jobs",,where did you get that? The unemployment hangs around 6 % which is pretty damn good if you ask me. You would think from reading some pundits that we were all starving out here, going from place to place looking for a handout. Not true.

After all the "doom and gloom", the last line says, "Payrolls expected to rise." For many years, the trend has been for small companies to be doing most of the new hiring. Tax incentives have been a huge part of that boom...that is where the "good new jobs" are coming from. And they don't hire idiots like Challenger et. al. to fill those, they can't afford their high fees. They do it themselves...imagine that.
