“in this economy”

I found it fascinating and scary that each performance at Ren Fest this year ended with a comment about the economy.

As each performer ended their performance, they would say something like “We know how hard it is in today’s economy, but this is how we make our living, so if you enjoyed us, please drop a dollar or two in the hat”.

I did so, a few times, but it’s interesting how I hear that phrase more and more often of late. I think it says more about how people are worrying than direct numbers about the manufacturing sector’s problems.
