Not me personally, no, my income actually went up and inflation is at 0%. Overall buying power is up, but so is unemployment. Gonna be a treasury deficit, though not as bad as predicted. Budget cuts are nescesary, but won't be made next year, instead they'll wait to recover from the depression.

I still think that if the media hadn't stirred up a storm, nobody would have been the wiser and people would have just spend as normal, greatly reducing the impact of it all. But that's another matter.
