| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 1516551 Canada02/09/2012 12:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Despite what you hear from the mainstream media, the truth is that the U.S. economy is not improving and incredibly tough times are ahead. Thankfully, those of us that are aware of what is happening can make preparations for the economic storm that is coming. Others will not be so fortunate. |

"collapsing" So much for the recovery in europe Its terrible to hear of some many in such financial straights and worrying about the future. Loving and caring for each other the best way they can but many maybe sharing what they have to get by. |

User ID: 1552632 United States02/09/2012 01:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As a business owner i'm putting a full halt on expansions for the next few months, if not the entire year. Last year was actually very good and all debts paid off in full. Had a great opportunity which would put me in some pretty heavy shackles and the upside would be incredibly lucrative. Of course this is based on a good economy. I'm glad i decided against it cause all of a sudden, sales have skidded to a halt. Commence puckering. |

This is something the Insiders can't control - I mean, there is still, basically, the same amount of money in the economy as, lets say, last August, so, why all of a sudden the dearth? Curious... |
