2009 - coming collapse

This year has been terrible because world financial system hit hard by real estate collapse, bank failures, and an economic crisis worse since the terrible Great Depression of the 1930's, now is hit with a mexican swine flu epidemic similar to what we had with the spanish flu of 1918. The damage to sales at malls already reeling from our severe recession, soon to be a deep depression, will be monumental. I expect closing of borders, quarantines and restricting movement of citizens to soon follow, perhaps even martial law.
