Fear of job loss isn't the only issue.  Many people became so overextended with debt that they can't make it financially even when they're fully emloyed.  I know a few people in that situation.

Correct and something else to worry about is a general deflation, which is a very real possibility. 

How is that bad?  Seems like a good idea for prices to drop.  Except that falling prices eventually means falling incomes which will really squeeze those with fixed debt payments which won't go down.
