You cant go anywhere when the bottom/foundation of the economy cant stimulate it at all.
actually,yes prices were down, business/jobs increased. Look at the RECORD UNEMPLOYMENT we had for years, even during a war.

the only reason its going up now is because of the Housing crisis

The bottom cant stimulate the economy when they have no jobs

And to V-Empire.

Lost PROFITS=LOST reinvestment into your business.

Facts are Facts you guys are generalizing everything, again go look at STATISTICS. Ive never heard of a company growing when they didnt make any money With the exception of the oil business, almost EVERY business tries to grow an expand with PROFITS. Guess what happens when those profits are DOWN. SIGNIFICANTLY!?

When a company makes $500,000 in profit, (and we are talking a very small company) you think they just jet set around the country buying big screen tv, bitches, and dayton wheels like Dre? no.

The MAJORITY of them reinvest into their infrastucture whether it be more equipments, better facilities, more jobs, raising wages, etc. they dont send the money overseas LOL
