At this point, I don't see how it can't be really bad. Scenario 1, we get a recession- which torpedos the weak hands in the housing markets because they lose their jobs. Scenario 2- we get inflation and growth, and these same folks get torpedoed because they can't keep up with their adjustable mortgages.

I don't imagine we can avoid a recession AND avoid inflation. I actually think we're likely to see stagflation again, and that will really hurt.
