Every recession I have experienced came with a real shortage of jobs, and people scrambling to make ends meet. I recall doing some renovations in 1979, and paying a hefty price to have the work done. Three years later you could get the same amount of work done for half the price.

The economy is always cyclic, and I think one should not get too demanding when times are good.

I whole heartedly agree.
