One major problem is that the recovery cannot be sustained until there is steady job growth. The bigger problem is that Republicans will do everything in their power to make sure that more Americans are unemployed.

Gold and sliver are going down.. and no its not a bubble bursting. The Euro is crashing as we speak. When the Euro goes down the dollar goes up as they run to put theirs into US dollars. When the dollar goes up gold and sliver go down. Don't sell your metals unless you are prepared to do some quick purchasing again as it will rise above and beyond where it has been.

When China moves into full swing with their economic policies they will rule the world while our dimwhit Democrates and Republicans are picking their belly button fuzz and not figuring out how to fix the dam mess. The Federal Reserve's days are limited.

The dollar will not crash until China sets the date so watch China. T bills and bonds may make money for a short time ... but it is risky unless you are ready to sell quickly and they are hard to sell quickly unless its part of a large management fund.. but still... watch out.

China is likey having a hay day purchasing gold and silver right now, India too.

If you can, invest in apple.

This is my prophecy for the week. ; ))

Statistically speaking, the economy has been improving for two years. There's still a problem of joblessness but the situation is at least somewhat stable.

Plus a near-majority/plurality of Americans, even today, do not support gay marriage.

By your logic, the government should be acting on all of those things in concert with people's opinions forthwith.

Raising taxes in the rich is the smart thing to do to reduce the national debt and help the economy.
