Mr. C. KIM McGuire Makes Economic Predictions

This is by far not a prediction desired by any good soul, and especially by an Optimist. Nevertheless, the reality is such that one cannot escape the facts.

As I have been saying for several years since the gas prices have been climbing above $1.75 per gallon (87 octane), our economy has been becoming unbalanced and  the societal impact is at an all CRITICAL need of a tourniquet.

Summer Time Predictions

• National Average for Gas Price will reach >$4.00 per gallon.
• Cost of Food Prices will continue to increase.
• More Semi-Tractor Drivers across the country will have Protests and Highway Slow Downs.
• Layoffs and/or Week out of the Month shut down at Truck manufacturing plants.
• Auto Parts factories - Layoffs.
• More Local Small Businesses will have more layoffs.
• Nationally, Unemployment will increase.
• Cost of Electricity will increase.
• More Trucks and Larger Vehicles will be up for sale by owners.
• Auto Manufacturers will offer Significant Discounts and Rebates on Trucks and Larger Vehicles to off-load inventory.
• Relatively wide spread injuries, sickness, and increase in heat stress related deaths during summer as a result of increase in electricity cost and some people not being able to afford cooling their homes.
• Stock Market will be unpredictable.
• Increase in Divorce Rates in 2009 to 2011 as a result of economic stress of 2007 to 2009. (Increase as compared to years past.)
• Increase in crime rates as compared to years past.
• Continued Increase in Foreclosures and Bankruptcies.
• Buyers market will continue throughout 2009.

NOT All is bad! What goes down or becomes depressed will go up and be happier times ahead!

 Optimism is in my blood! I have Attitude of Gratitude and that's what I teach my Twins. Optimism is a matter of viewing On Top of the Box, All Around the Box, Under the Box, Outside of the Box, and yes, In The Box!
