Is unemployment high? Yes.

Are people losing their homes? Yes.

Does that mean the entire economy will crash, if we can keep our wits about us and not engage in bank-running among other illogical and impractical activities?

I’m not convinced.

You forgot retirement funds, 401ks and the like have been damaged quite a bit in this whole mess. I’m no economist but I’d say people loosing their homes, jobs, and retirement funds says pretty clearly that the country is going through a rough spot right now.
