When will it end? Economic observers say Florida's downturn likely will last another year
Recession for another year, rising unemployment and $4.10-a-gallon gasoline, too? You might say this is getting to be difficult.
The questions now, at the mid-point of 2008, are: How long will these troubled economic times last? How far down will the economy go? And how many people will be able to hold on to their jobs while they wait for the economy to recover?

Joblessness could rise by as much as another half percentage point, to 6 percent, before it levels off. And the predictions point to mid-2009 as the point at which the economy begins to perk up.
