Well I just found out that my coworker's boyfriend was laid off today, along with many of his coworkers. He worked for a small business. The owner said that given the outcome of the election, he needs to cut costs now, in order to cover the extra expense he will have under the new leadership's ecomomic plan. Needless to say, my coworker's boyfriend and the business owner are not very happy. The disastrous stock market reaction to the election is giving us clear signals as to what the future will hold for business around the country, INCLUDING here in the Triangle.
Has anyone else been told of any layoffs happening in the Triangle, resulting from the election results. Both ones that are happening now or projected going forward? I think this will be a game changer for the Triangle. I don't know if things will look the same here going forward. I wish the best of luck to everyone in the Triangle that ends up out of work.
Well I heard from my cousin's next-door-neighbor's mom that banks are being forced to allow illegal immigrants to move into all the foreclosed houses, right here in the Triangle! Just in anticipation of all the socialist policies that the new administration is ushering in, unchecked, and before the inauguration.
The economy was on its last leg before the election. That’s why George W. Bush begged the American people to go along the “Bailout”, remember?
The affects of the new administration won’t be felt on the economy until 2010 at the soonest, for better or worse.
Regardless of who won the election things are going to get worse because Americans will have to adapt to the fact that they now have to live within their means and thanks to the last administration those means have been diminished.
Umm, yeah. What a lame excuse for laying someone off. Blame a guy that hasn't even taken office yet, and whose ideas have yet to be implemented. It's people like that business owner that is really hurting the economy. Can that business owner say EXACTLY how much he will lose? Even ROUGHLY? Didn't think so.

the business owner can't say because the business owner is fictional.
Fictional? Nah. In fact, I bet the business owner comes In & Out of this forum frequently.
