America in the Global Economy

[Atrus]

At the risk of kicking a dead horse a little humor often puts things in perspective. A friend sent me this today and I thought some here might find it humorous, or perhaps even disturbing

yeah, kindof sad really. as if it isnt obvious already, the US is nose-diving into a recession. jobs are becoming scarce, price of living is going up while wages stand still, gas prices soaring to record highs.... right now Seattle is booming. you can drive through downtown and count almost 2 dozen tower cranes working. building going up everywhere. but it wont last forever. a friend of mine has a friend who works in the permit office for the city, and in the last 2 years virtualy nothing major has come accross his desk. the economy is going downhill in a bobsled with no brakes.... im moving to canada...
