After watching so many businesses close up shop and quit, so many people let go from good jobs only to take what ever they can just to get by, I’m wondering when we’re going to stop calling it a Great Recession and start calling it what it is, a Great Depression.

Tighten your seat belts, it’s going to get worse….sure glad that President is taking all the vacations he can so he can be well rested as he watches America drop down the Abyss of National Debt!

With the new Gov’t Fiscal Year starting July 1st, you would think the State, County and City would have filled some positions that have been left vacant to cut costs. But maybe the budgets are still bad.

Now, small businesses and individuals are all hunkered down and paying off debt if they can. Small businesses don’t dare hire a new employee, as new adverse regulations & the Health Care law has made it almost impossible to calculate what a new employee will cost. All this is forcing downsizing or going out of business
