I have to disagree with this. Unless they have been under a rock and avoided radio, TV, and the Interweb, it would be damn near impossible for them to not realize that our economy is supposedly in the shitter. The media hype about recession and such has gotten everybody afraid that OMG the U.S. is going to fall apart and acting like retarded monkeys.
I personally haven't changed any of my habits as a result of this so-called recession and I don't think it is nearly as big of a problem as the media is making it out to be, but it could be if it continues to spiral out of control.
