Comment: Simple economics, GDP = C+I+G+(X-M).
C - consumption is decreasing, people are being laid of and incomes are not increasing.
I - Investment from the local private sector is decreasing (very little assistance from Govt relative to foreign investors),small and medium size businesses are closing and there is a scarcity of capital internationally for foreign direct investment.
G - Government has no money, debt my ass has taken it.
(X-M) - We are a net importing country.
