Take a look in the future. What will 2008 bring to the economy?

Will we see further consolidation in enterprise software and networking equipment.

Will we see more cross-border deals if the US dollar remains weak, relative to the Euro (and Canada)?

Go to your great grandmother and tell her how much
macroeconomics you have learned. She says “These macroeconomists
claim that inflation is falling but when I go to the market every week I see increasing
prices. They don’t know what they are talking about.” Give her an answer, keep in mind that she doesnt know economics, answer simply.

Hi guys i have this economics question and i just need a second opinion. "how would a federal income-tax cut affect our current economy? (Be sure to consider both negative and positive aspects of a tax cut.)"

Positive - More money for people
- would encourage business growth
- with more businesses more people employed...??

Negatives - Might cause inflation if demand exceeds supply

Thats all i can think off, i think they are all right, but can anyone tell me if they are correct and add a few more as well. I really need a couple more for the negatives.

Thanks!

I know an obvious answer is that those jobs have gone to nations with lower wages. But how have Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan managed to keep those industries while having high wages and standards of life? Why dont any American companies produce things such LCD televisions, cell phones, (exclude the iphone), digital cameras, and such? I would love to see our nations companies stay here and provide jobs here. I want to see high tech comsumer products with "Made in America" logos. I am concerned about our economy and the potential demise in research and development traditionally done here.

Although a substantial reduction in personal income taxes was promised, our neighbors to the north have just been told to forget it for several years. Meanwhile, the corporate tax rate has been cut ... again.

I would like to know your opinions on how much more, you think, the yuan will continue to increase, in value. I'm pretty interested for the answer to this question because I'm Chinese and my dad owns some property in China so if the value goes down to say 5 or 6 yuan or so to 1 usd, I would be pretty dam happy... what do you guys think? After five years how much will the yuan be worth compared to the dollar?

The assumption that government has an inherent role in money & banking, (apart from setting standards, as they do with inches and feet, ounces and pounds, minutes and hours) is as preposterous as believing they have a place competing with any private business. In history when banking was most stable it was closest to pure laissez-faire operation. Whenever a nation was growing well, was creative, inventive, & productive you will find a banking system very close to free-enterprise competitive banking.

Benjamin Franklin made a visit to England in 1763 and while there he was asked to explain the prosperity of the colonies while on the other hand, England was suffering a bust, he replied: "That is simple. It is only because in the colonies we issue our own money. It is called 'Colonial Scrip' and it is issued in the proper proportions to the demands of trade & industry.

I have an assignment for my economics class that is as follows-

1. Write at least three paragraphs which address the following issues for your country:
• GDP
• CPI
• unemployment rate
• current trend (inflation, recession, other)
• future predictions

Where can I find this information? I'm especially having trouble finding the current trend, nobody seems to agree on it right now...

Well think about it. Public schools turn out people for the general work force. Where as private schools actually give the children the tools they need to run this world. I guess it has to work this way in order for the world to be equal. We could not have so many successful people or who would work at mcdonalds or haul gravel. What do you think?
