There’s no GOOD news!
Well, certainly there is SOME good news, but the point here is that there is plenty of bad news. Regardless of how either political party tries to spin it, America (and the rest of the world) is in a serious economic crisis. An article from Charisma News shows some of the dismal economic indicators. I am listing some of them here, but you can review the complete article at Charisma News for more details.

Whether you think the sky is falling, or this is just a temporary crisis you should prepare yourself for economic difficulty. There are some things you can do to prepare. Sooner or later the piper has to be paid. Our national debt is fast approaching $ 20 Trillion with neither political party willing to stop spending increases. All around us are warning signs.
I am as positive thinking as anyone, but only a fool would ignore all of these troubling economic indicators.
Are you ready?
