"Remember, the recession isn't all bad: Unsupportable debts are being erased. Consumers are rebuilding their savings and lowering their living standards to match reality. Workers are exiting dying industries. And through distress sales, foreclosures, and bankruptcies, assets are being taken away from weak hands and given to strong ones, creating the conditions for future growth."
--Peter Coy, "Is the Jobs Panic Justified?", Business Week, Dec. 22, 2008

Teachers might want to parse almost every phrase of this remark in class.
