Recession is defined as two consecutive quarters of negative growth. We haven't had that. Television journalists apparently aren't aware of the definition, hence the term mental recession. Unfortunately, enough people believing these bozos can create recession by generating chain reaction fear about investing. I for one don't want the government to "fix" anything. They are the cause of most of our problems.
