12-01-2020Personally, I gotta go with Fred on this one. Right now the economy is soured, but by in large it's not horrible. There's no soup lines, and I think 90-93% of people who want a job have one. The problem has become that the uncertainty has caused the average consumer to slack up on consuming. Yes, the credit crunch hit us hard, but we didn't need to buy huge houses on fast food salaries. DO banks need to fail, sure some of them do. Do more Harvard MBA's need to be taking jobs as shoe shiners... why not? it's capitalism at work.
Unfortunately, we're bombarded by the news people 24 hours a day how horrible things are (Liberal or Conservative biased, both of them know bad news is better for ratings).
How do we fix it, lets try first by listening to some one who has a clue what is coming in and going out of this country. Some one who built and business no one thought would work, (and apparently did a good bit of that building during the recession in the early 80's), who may have a little bit of knowledge that the world isn't imploding. Let's hope our leaders in government won't repeat past mistake (though I'm less hopeful here, and I mean both parties).
And for godsakes turn off FOXNews, CNN, MSNBC, Al Jazeira, and any other news networks for a few hours, poor a tall, cold adult beverage, do some internet shopping (don't buy things you can't afford), and watch a Girls Next Door marathon. If it's really important news that affects you, you'll probably know about it before CNN reporst it to you.
end of rant. Back to Superbowl commercial watching.
