The phrase I think tells it all is "politicians and industry leaders continued to issue optimistic predictions for the nation's economy". Think it can't happen again? Now might be a good time to stock up on canned goods.

Stores are closing in my city. One of our Macy stores is now.
Target's shelves are empty from the holiday shopping and they're not filling them back up. |

Americans have been experiencing depression for the last 8 years. :) Businesses are now rightly getting a taste of it, themselves.

Stores are closing in my city. One of our Macy stores is now. Target's shelves are empty from the holiday shopping and they're not filling them back up. Most of what those stores sell aren't basic needs anyway. If another Great Depression hits, the wealthy will still be wealthy, with less money, some of the wealthy will lose most of their wealth and have to live like the rest of us, and the rest of us will be standing in line for food. |

Obama will save us He has the right intentions, I'm sure. But I'm not sure even he can save this economy. Instead of giving more money to businesses who have already had loads of cash given to them, how about not giving more money to businesses and give it to the poor and middle class. They will buy more goods and services and this will help keep businesses profitable. Then let the free market decide which businesses thrive and which fail. |

Fried Grasshoppers
Catch a bunch of grasshoppers and keep them in a container overnight so that they purge their last meals. The next day boil the grasshoppers for about ten minutes in order to soften them up a bit. For larger grasshoppers you can then easily remove the tough wings and legs. Next beat some eggs and stir in the boiled grasshoppers so that they are thoroughly covered in egg. Throw some corn meal and the egg-coated grasshoppers into a bag and shake well. Place the hoppers into a hot skillet with 1-inch or 2.5-cm of hot oil and fry to a golden brown. Remove the grasshopper from the pan and place on towels to soak up the excess grease. Fried grasshoppers are excellent when eaten plain or dipped in various sauces including horseradish, mustard, ketchup, honey, or barbecue sauce. Many people prefer honey and grasshoppers and I do too. |

Find an economic advise that you hear most often, and do exactly opposite.
That advise is all over TV/Radio/Interned, because it's good, very good, but not for you (Joe Q. Public), but it is good for the one paying for it if you follow the advice given. There is no credit crisis liquidity crisis, there is no deflation. Remember, we are no longer on gold money. This changes everything. What we have is a Matrix. And currently, we experiencing the red pill moment. The worry is that the reality may intrude. |

Americans have been experiencing depression for the last 8 years. :) Businesses are now rightly getting a taste of it, themselves. Got that right, my friend... Personally I don't think the powers that be will let things get too bad, after all their bottom line is affected as well. I could be wrong but my intuition tells me yes things will be tight but they will get back on track. Maybe not in the way some would find efficient or tasteful.... |

They will buy more goods and services and this will help keep businesses profitable. Then let the free market decide which businesses thrive and which fail. I tend to agree but then I don't think the tax breaks he is going to give tax payers will be enough, I think they will save that money and not spend it. Can't blame them really, but I don't see a few dollars more a week fixing businesses. Any business surviving right now is likely to keep going, but we too have lost several.. |
