I don't think anyone is HOPING things are bad economically. Prices on everything still suck -- and like cards, they ain't coming down. I was at a car dealership this week -- the same model I bought 8 years ago is now 50% more expensive. Just brutal. I suppose that's a better markup than groceries over that time.

None of this seems to've hurt spending on cards of any era. I think the percentage of people who alter spending on anything due to the market is very small.
