Economic downturn = less money.
Less money = need less employees.
Less employees = save money.
Save money = use the cloud instead.
Use the cloud instead + less employees = less knowledge.
Less knowledge = more risk.
More risk = negotiate discount or better SLAs. (meh!)
Better SLAs = more leverage with lawyers when you company goes down the pan.

Enjoy your cloud experience. MS, google et al (cloud suppliers), will simply laugh behind your back. THis cloud has a silver ting in it and it's not called a lining - it's called the 20oz hammer that smacks you between the eyes; you may be lucky and end up in hospital.
