Hey, soperson, the housing bubble burst because of banks giving loans they shouldn't. Would you like the government to regulate the economy. Think before you speak, it helps.

YES and NO

To have a complete view of the economy by quantifying also non monetary assets, an indicator named HDI is used (Humand Development Index). In this regard, the US ranks high but not the highest:

As negative points I see:
- the trade balance
- the weakened currency
- the income disparity
- structural weaknesses in education and health (non monetary assets
- debt ratio of housholds

Positive aspects
- good positioning in future oriented sectors and innovation
- high productivity
- low unemployment rate
- high growth

No, the recession is here. Gas prices are outrageous. Everything else is going up because of that. Gas has doubled in the past 7 years and my grocery bill is up 40%. Healthcare is ridiculous. Hospitals and doctor visits keep rising. It migth be good for the corporations but the working public is hurting. And don't tell me that it is not this administraton's fault. There have been votes taken to investigate and fine OPEC and big oil for gouging that the Republicans have shot down.

he does not assume u . s . is a failing us of a. yet i could want to acknowledge what information you may teach that the monetary device isn't failing suited now. If some thing retains getting worse and worse, shouldn't the basics be evaluated? If a technique starts off putting forth undesirable outcomes, many times you seem on the source to make certain the place the undesirable outcomes are coming from. The "source" could even be seen the "fundamentals".

Unemployment is at its lowest rate in a long time. Anyone who wants to work, will work. When was the last time you tried to get something done around the house? Any man or company who has a reputation for good work, will have a waiting period. Trust me. We've been waiting for an electrician and plumber for months.

No. People are hurting. People are about to lose their home, jobs are going overseas and we are steady letting immigrates in when we don't even have a decent job ourselves. Crimes is on the rise, teachers are still being underpaid, the working poor don't have medical insurance or can't afford to pay for it. Gas prices are ridiculous, food prices are even more ridiculous and we have thrown away billions on a lost cause in Iraq. Shall I go on?

Define "US economy".

I'm going to say, NO.

The national debt is near its limit (again), and Congress will have to decide (again) whether to default or simply increase the limit.

How can anyone say the economy is good when our national debt is $9 trillion?

Yes. Low unemployment. Higher average wages. More people working now than ever before.
