They all seem to be doing very well for themselves, but people under the age of say 40 seem to be mostly really struggling, and it looks like we will be paying to support the baby boomers into their retirements too! What happened? Got any historical facts about unemployment, house prices etc? Thanks.

i have noticed that United states public expenditure is raising in the last couple of years. i guess that the only reason is not only spending on homeland security. What can also be the cause of this?

As I am in Bangkok many people don't know what "frequency spectrum" is even they watch television and use mobile phone everyday. Economically, I think it doesn't give out energy directly as gas oil or wind but it is the fundamental source of vast business activities in human life. If it is legally well-accepted as a kind of natural resources , we may have wider perspective in preserving wealth which is hand down to us from nature.

As part of my study in Economics in the past, democratic socialist economy (like France, Canada, Spain, et.al. EU states) tends envolvement of the government in the economic activities of its society. In capitalist economy (like the great United States), most economic activities are left to entrepreneurs - in the same token however, because of "overriding interest" of majority of the populace, government has to be involved also in order to make sure that all economic activities of the entrepreneurs are within the regulations maintained by the government for which it was created to serve. At this point (I'm confused), what makes these two economic plans different then, I wonder? Which would you personally favor and why? Thanks for sharing your opinion, anyone.

We are building a bigger gap between the rich and the poor. Eventually the middle class will disappear and the majority of society will be in poverty. It seems many choose to stay "comfortable". With this I mean it seems those within the middle class as well as upper middle class and most wealthy seem to not think it is their problem to fix society. Others say there isn't anything we can do. But this is OUR country. Class discrimination and the concern of "prestigious" jobs over those in the jobs that are the fabric of everyday living are a major problem, that really do affect everyone, whether they choose to see it or not.

Not only Canada, but also other Artic or almost Artic countries.

It might increase agriculture, reduce several costs associated with extreme cold weather, such as logistic and heating, while not becoming hot enough for there to be the problems associated with global warming that other countries will have.

I have seen 4 factories in my town alone move their production lines to Mexico. If American jobs are moving South of the border, then why, other than free healthcare and Welfare, are the Mexican people immigrating to the U.S. and not staying where the jobs are now?

I hear this term thrown around a lot today, especially in reference to efforts to increase economic development in developing countries. Obviously, it means certain things - growing the economy, making more money, raising the standard of living. But it still seems like a very ambiguous term to me...are there perhaps some undercurrents, hidden meanings in the phrase? What does it mean personally to you? Is development the same as modernism? Is development, or modernism, at odds with tradition, and the preservation of local cultures? Is development, and modernism, and "progress" always a good thing? What are their drawbacks?
This isn't for a school paper or anything. I've just been thinking about this on my own and wanted to solicit some other peoples' opinions. Thanks in advance.
Serious responses only, please (i.e. no one-liners)
