So is your economy going down again or is it speculation?

The UK economy is getting back on its feet but like the rest of the world we will be hit hard if you go under.

They are going to pull something outta there ass so that somebody looks like a hero, IMO.

I keep waiting for the GOOD news. Decided to stop watching the news for a few days.

So true. How does Obama, someone who is not a true leader, is not business savvy. Doesn't understand the economy, isn't in touch with the American people. How does he get elected? Because the presidency has become a popularity contest.

Politics is not about what you know but how you say stuff, lie and negotiate.

Few politicians have real world experience when it comes to jobs, if they did I highly doubt the likes of the public sector would get away with the amount of shit it creates.

I would move somewhere else but I would most likely get stabbed because everyone hates Americans. I suppose I could say i'm Canadian... eh?
