U.S. Economy is NOT Getting “Better” – It’s Dying!
The numbers don’t lie, and statistic after statistic shows that the economic fundamentals continue to get progressively worse… and anyone who claims that things are getting “better” is either ignorant, completely deluded or is purposely lying. The U.S. economy is not getting “better”. The U.S. economy is dying! Words: 970
So says an article* at http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com entitled “15 Economic Statistics That Keep on Getting Worse.” Below Lorimer Wilson, editor of www.FinancialArticleSummariesToday.com, presents further reformatted and edited [..] excerpts from the article for the sake of clarity and brevity to ensure a fast and easy read. (Please note that this paragraph must be included in any article reposting to avoid copyright infringement.) The article goes on to say:
The U.S. government can continue to try to pump up with economy with more debt, but the reality is that there is not going to be a legitimate “recovery” until consumer spending rebounds. Consumer spending makes up the vast majority of U.S. GDP. Without good jobs, however, consumers are not going to be able to spend money and, unfortunately, our jobs base continues to be erode as millions upon millions of middle class jobs are shipped over to China, India and dozens of third world nations by the global predator corporations that now dominate the world economy. So where does that leave middle class American “consumers”? Well, it leaves us in a world of hurt.
15 Key Economic Statistics That Just Keep Getting Worse
1. The number of Americans who are receiving food stamps rose to a new all-time record of 40.8 million in May and has set a new all-time record for 18 months in a row. There is every indication that things are going to get even worse. The U.S. Department of Agriculture projects that the number of Americans on food stamps will increase to 43 million in 2011.
2. The U.S. economy lost 131,000 more jobs during the month of July… and has lost 10.5 million jobs since 2007. Meanwhile, immigrants (both legal and illegal) continue to pour into this nation in unprecedented numbers.
3. Americans who are out of work are finding it incredibly difficult to get back into the workforce with the average time needed to find a job having risen to an all-time record of 35.2 weeks.
4. The U.S. government keeps trying to pump up the economy with debt, and in the process things are getting wildly out of control. According to a U.S. Treasury Department report to Congress, the U.S. national debt will top $13.6 trillion this year and climb to an estimated $19.6 trillion by 2015.
5. The interest on all of this debt is becoming increasingly oppressive. (To continue reading this article go here.)

Obama or let’s use his real name, Barry Soetoro is just a puppet of the New World Order. They control both left and right. This is why nothing ever changes and at voting time it’s all about voting for “change” or a “new deal”.
They are leading into another depression, another World War and unless the people wake up to it we will find ourselves begging for the One World Government they have been planning for years.
Get educated on the New World Order, how they work and their plans at http://www.thenewalexandrialibrary.com
and then get active and spread the truth….
Good luck
If Bush would have golfed as much as Obama, vacationed as much as Obama and his wife spending tons of money on vacation as much as Laura Bush, the liberal press would have been frying them weekly. She rented 70 some rooms while in Spain for example.

The problem has always been that the federal government has not passed laws to stop these bastard american corporations from going over seas. all corporations see money dollars signs, GREED DRIVES THESE COMPANIES. they could care less about the people of america if they survive.
