The story got plenty of space, and is entirely speculative. It's supposed to put the wind up people that there;s a threat to the cashflow... and of course, most of these people have mortgages to pay, kids to feed and clothe, and they're just gonna get more worried about keeping food on the table, etc. cos at the end of the day, most people think of their own families first and foremost.
