k so i figured i might as well make a forum for all things politics and all things economy since those are the biggest issues in the u.s. right now so yeah everyone knows the economy is screwed up right now and w just got ouselves a new pres. now everyone is baming everyone else for the failing of the economy what do u think how do u think the problems should be fixed and do u think obama will help fix pur economy make it worse or have no effect whatsoever. so my whole thought on the thing is that it's the banks fault and the treasuries fault the banks failed to check themselves and the treasury failed to check the banks resulting in more money being printed the worth of the dollar going down and everything pretty much blowing up. what it think is that the government should have taken over the banks and given the ceo's no benefits whatsoever i also think they need to go after the people who don't pay there mortgages and just abandon the house. i think obama is smart enough that he wil come up with a plan to help i don't know what it will be but i think it will be something.

This is just the normal up and downs of a capitalist goverment it will go up by the end of this year or start to. Yes alot of the problems are the banks and people not paying for their houses, but the thing is there isnt much to be done things just have to work out and they will its just a matter of time. Maybe Obama will fix things but its hard to say, all i know is this really isnt as big as a deal as peoploe make it. This has happened before (this time its not even as bad as last) and it will get better then it will get bad again its all just a matter of time

From the things he has said in his campaign, he gives the impression that he's going to improve alot for the United States of America such as:
Improve the health service
Close the Guatanamo Bay prison
Proposed to a countrywide road- and bridge-building programme
Nationwide schemes to refurbish public buildings and schools
Pledged to ensure that 10% of America's electricity comes from renewable sources by 2012, and 25% by 2025

All these will cost quite alot of capital to proceed...and if he's going to reduce taxes and insurance costs, I'm not sure where he's going to get the budget from = S

The sad thing is no matter who the president is he or she can't completely turn around the economy. He or she can implement plans that help, but he or she can't control our spending habits or how companies run themselves. I do think Obama can start to turn our economy around.
