While most of the world is recovering economically, the US continues to flounder. Greece is highly unionized. Result? Chaos.
Is that our trial canary? We know that tax cuts work. Please feel to help with informative / shocking links regarding economics, government budgeting, what triggered the meltdown, Obama-nomics, and/or Greece.

Anonymous Viewpoint:
The Black-Sholes formula for making those investment packs of sub primes (like Goldman-Sachs used) won a Nobel Prize, and believe me they were not conservative types. I believe one of them had already died, and other one joined with Green on formula presentation, and Nobel Prize came as result. It was a terrible way of packaging subprimes from various areas of country, and in meltdown the banks found they couldn’t sell them, as they could not determine values.
