It's the Recession that We Had to Have
John Major (UK Prime Minister) once said "If it is not hurting it is not working"
Paul Keating (Australian Prime Minister) once said "It is the recession that we had to have"
In both cases the recession led to significant growth after the event.
Actually this is not a political rant at all.
It is simply that in order for panels to get better and for our industry to have better panels we all need a recession. Not a recession of economics, rather a recession in our panel size through purging of those who were inactive.
Let's follow these two esteemed gentlemen (which they were regardless of your political persuasion) and take a leaf out of their book.
