> I am wondering about our economy. The stock market continues to drop down! down! down! A lot of small businesses are closing their doors because the economy is too low to sustain their businesses. A lot of large companies and corperations have laid off people by the thousands and this will continue to get worst. The unemployment rate continues to rise. A lot of people are standing for hours in long lines, so they can get food to sustain their families, just as they did over 50 years ago. Retailers and Service professionals speaks about how the economy has slowed down their business.
> I am wondering could our economy survive 2 more years of Bush being in office. I am wondering what do you guys think will be the outcome and why? Do you think we will go into another great depression, like the 1930s. Our economy was doing great under Clinton's Administration and the unemployment rate was about 5% or less, I can't remember. I am afraid to see what it is now. I wanted to hear your commentary on this topic.
> I can face the reality of what is happening in our world, but it is scary. I guess, with the help of Bush, the terrorists will suceed is breaking down our economy. Maybe, that is an exaggeration, but that is how it look on the news and in how a lot people are responding to the situation at hand. I hope we don't end up being poor like many countries are.
