30. Just because we are out of the recession does not imply the economy is doing well.
You are are making a whole lot of assumptions based on me using the term "recession" with it's actual meaning rather than a synonym for "shitty economy". Roubini and Krugman have all been saying that the end of the recession does not mean everything is going to be good again, it just means the patient has been stabilized. There is still a lot of surgery left to be done in order to save the patient's life.
