Everytime I go out it seems that Mall parking lots, grocers as well are packed with autos. And traffic still heavy on the streets even in the middle of the day. This is where I am confused, the economy does not look to be shrinking when you see the mob of people at malls,restaurants,grocers...

I suspect Obama will be a one term deal.

That happens, look at what Happened to the Czar of russia.

Boomer cheered on the whole offshoring of jobs and deficit spending as long as they can cash out at the top before they retire and kick the can down to their grandchildren. Except it went wrong, it is like lighting a short fuse on a stick of dynamite.

Well I do not see the problem if Nike shoes are made in china, they should not cost 50 dollars for a pair. If a GM auto is made in mexico, it should be cheaper not more expensive. All this stuff made in China,india,mexico should be cheaper not more expensive.
