This is why they are so pessimistic. You can calculate what you have lost, but not what can be gained through new opportunities. Until you know what the private sector plans, that is.
They are not "pessimistic", they are attempting to be realistic with the information they have - just because it doesn’t match your unbridled optimism (which isn’t even based on any data, just "opportunities"), doesn’t make it pessimistic.

Isn’t the debit side in the future, and dependent on business solutions?
