Our biggest problem is we have no confidence in our leadership.
Our GNP only dropped 6% last year. Not enough on its own to cause the problems we see now.
There is still money out there, but with no confidence people are frightened to spend money they may need if times get worse.

No matter whats going on...I think when it pertains to that amount of money he should've let the congress make a clear-minded decision and not call them irresponsible by wanting to take a few days to think it over. When they okayed it, the bill sat on his desk for 72 hrs before he signed it. IMO, he is a salesman and he wanted them to jump on the deal as quickly as possible before reading all the fine print.
