I'd love to see more information myself, including a primer on what occurred and what it means -- from an UNBIASED source, not one that it totally U.S-centric.

 

Very few of us have the knowledge of global economics to weigh in with reasonably astute comments on a topic that is undoubtedly very complex.

Here Suzy, I found this. Not sure how unbiased it is, but it's a pretty clear explanation.

@suzyQ3, this is a shopping channel message board. I don't think anyone needs an economics degree to have an opinion.

LOL. Clearly, people don't need any background at all on these forums to make uninformed statements in the guise of knowledge.  It's been proved over and over.

General terms? When you talk about the economy, it's specific:

 

According to Kiplinger and Market Watch, the economy is darn good and poised for the same.

 

So when someone says that it's going down the drain, I have to wonder why. Smiley Wink

  I'm going to have an opinion, whether you like it or not. Last I looked, we still have freedom of speech in the US.

  I'm not going to try to prove anything, because you would just argue with that.

  I'm not on here to argue or convince anyone of anything, I'm here to express my opinion.

  Period...

 

Poor @esmeraldagooch, you tried to start a discussion and get all this static.
