Mr. Acosta, you should know G.W.Bush was our president for eight years not think tank expert to issue warnings. For god sake, he was in charge of economy,

A stealth government economic policy could help the Midwest.

Has anyone else noticed that the greedy bankers and money gurus are the ones who caused the whole mess? Furthermore, how many have noticed that the same people are making piles of money at the expense of the American taxpayers in the form of bailouts?

Those that have, get; those that have not, get left holding the bag.

But remember that no one with income under $250,000 per year will have their taxes raised. Anyone want to buy a bridge? I have hundreds for sale for only $100 each.

George w. Bush was not responsible for this recession he even warned about it, if there anybody to be blamed its Alan Greenspan.With all the honors being put to Greenspan this one is his making because he did not put any caution to the effervescence of the housing greed.

There really is no mystery about why America tanked. Those who have been anti-regulation, those who have allowed heavy speculation in futures markets, and those who have accepted that what's good for business is good for America have

bought into a myth. We've been victimized by the few who have been entrusted with our country's solvency.

A lesson in all of this? You bet. Don't trust the notion that greed is okay. One of the seven deadly sins, it has never been okay until conservatism legitimized it.

Anyone willing to prove me wrong?

Let's take full Social Security and Medicare taxes from all of these large bonuses over $1 million dollars irrespective of any standing normal annual limits.

Stop the Cash for Clunkers at $1 billion, an economically incestuous idea by the Progressives!

There is no economic recovery and there won't be until at least half of the lost jobs return in some fashion or another. This administrations ideas of heavy spending (so-called stimulus packages) and taxing the people and business that create jobs is counter productive to true economic recovery.

I agree with Kiara of Mo that the high cost of gas has direct and deep affect on the entire economy. What can the government do about that?
