It seems like the employers have a lot to gain by spreading the fear of a recession to make the job market to be more favorable to them.
Didn't the Treasury secretary quip “The enemy keeps postponing when the recession’s going to come... They are dying to have a recession. They can’t bear going into next year’s election with the economy the way that it is.”
