It sure feels good when things are going swimmingly for us. I mean we of the civilized people. America, Canada, Australia, Britain and the rest of Europe and more developed areas of east asia like South Korea and Japan. I can include Hong Kong but I'm not really sure about China as the majority of the people are still farmers, I think it is what, 70%? Excluding China though the rest of us
seem to be on the rise, economically and scientifically speaking, yes?
This war with Iraq continues, Russia is up to who knows what, ultimately and economies are shifting around the world. But could you say everything is on the rise?
The American economy has been suffering due to unemployment, increased transportation costs via gas and the housing market crash. This is coupled with the long standing problem of outsourcing and illegal hiring practices by companies. Popular opinion outside of the U.S. seems to be one of smugness against the U.S. as our policies are coming back to bite us in the ass.
I read this article here
Britain's Economy at 60 Year Low
How do you forumers feel about the future, since the majority of us are under 30 and even more are under 20. This isn't a doom and gloom things but how do you feel about your future in particular. Not in relation to your job or family but as a society.

If China takes off like they seem to be, America might have an economic rival that can spark a new sense of pride and vigor in our society. I have especially high hopes for a resurgent space race, since Russia seems to have crapped out on us as a catalyst.
Or we might do the England thing and retire to our place in the countryside, and then all the really important stuff this century will take place in various parts of Asia. I can see it going either way, easily.

Ha, yeah. I mean, what has Belgium really done with their existence so far? Screw those guys.
At least gas prices are coming down, right? As an engineer in college hoping to get a job at a nuclear power plant in a few years, the whole energy crisis promises to turn the local plant from a machine that prints money to a machine that manufactures something worth more than money.
Nuclear power is fantastic.

Like Bill and Ted
is our economy in a recession? yeah pretty much
but fuck we're so goddamn well off that our recession is pretty kickass compared to most country's best dreams. it's all about where you view it from
the established government of elders took on bill and ted's teachings and adopted them as the focal points of their religion
