My experience this year would lead me to believe the economy is not so great yet. I was downsized in January of this year.Had a rough time finding new work,although I did find work.

I've seen a few companies in SC go bankrupt and one once prominent textile company couldn't even cough up its county property tax payment.

Economies have gone up and down since time immemorial. I don't doubt that there are rational explanations for some of these foreclosures (sickness, death of one party involved, divorce, etc.) but knowing human beings the way I do (I am one), I can't help but think that most of these people simply have misplaced priorities. Meaning they spent their money on goodies instead of property taxes.
