Psychic Businesses Booming Amid Economic Downturn

Author: CBS   Source: CBS News

Title: PSYCHIC BUSINESSES BOOMING AMID ECONOMIC DOWNTURN

With a lot of people cutting back in this tough economy, more and more people are looking to psychics for answers, reports CBS station WCBS-TV in New York City.

Fahrusha is a psychic in the East Village and her clients' questions have turned from love and family to money and jobs. "As of September I've been getting many, many more questions: 'Will I keep my job?' And in the last three or four weeks people have been coming who have in fact lost their jobs."

When times are good, the people turn away from Heaven. I'd better hurry, and start my own church. Nobody in their right mind, would really believe I can help them achieve the Holy Grail, but this is a prolonged recession, and the truth might sink in...

"Economic Downturn"... Dec 3rd. at 7:40:59 pm EST

I hate these buzz-words. We're in a recession, so call it what it is. We've been in a recession for over a year now. In fact, on the same page as this article is a link to another article that states exactly this. Continuing to categorize it using the phrase-of-the-day will only continue to lead people along by the nose and into a greater financial crisis if they don't start preparing like they should have done last year!

Why do you think people who normally wouldn't go to a psychic are now doing so? They're troubled, they're at wit's end, they want answers and the government, banks, lending institutions and their employers aren't giving out any.

Okay, mini-rant over.

People seek comfort in the oddest of places.

I believe that most go, not because they really need answers, since they may already be aware of those answers-- but rather at least, for a little encouragment that things might get better later on. It helps to hope for luck at a later date if things aren't going so well at the moment.
