Unemployment Opinions
My view about unemployment today is that it is simply awful. Being a daughter of an unemployed mother is not the best thing in the world. We already had to move out of our house of 13 years,live with someone else,and deal with emotional stress. ever since all the stress about her finding a job is taking a toll on both of us. More fighting then ever has been ocurring lately. Both of us are feed up with the whole situation. Were doing debates at school so i picked unemployment as mine. :]
I used this site as one of my sources. :] I found a lot more out about unemployment then i ever knew before :]
Thanks US News :]
WORLD ECONOMY
I BELIEVE THE US ECONOMY NEEDS TO RECONCILE WITH ALL THE INTERESTED PARTIES.
TEAM WORK IS NEEDED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. BY THIS I MEAN GETTING BANKERS, INVESTORS, BUSINESSOWNERS, THE PRESIDENT OF THE US, CHIEF JUSTICE, WARREN BUFFET, BERNEKE, AND TOP ECONOMISTS TO DRAFT A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO GET BACK AFLOAT.
ONE PERSON OR ONE ENTITY CANNOT DO IT ALL.
ALL OR NOTHING ALL FOR ONE ONE FOR ALL, IS KEY
AIG's Howard Sosin Tries to Put Forward an Economic Plan!??
Howard Sosin flourished in Wall Street's footloose days of the mid-80s. As the founder of AIG Financial Products, he invented many of the complex financial instruments blamed for changing the rules of risk and wrecking the global economy. Now Sosin says he has a plan to fix America’s banks and restore confidence in the markets. Can a guy who got rich trading credit default swaps save the global economy?
Really interesting article and video interview: http://bigthink.com/ideas/founder-of-aig-financial-products-has-a-plan-to-rescue-global-economy
