Every year in October the Stock Market has a setback called Black Monday. The reason for this is the pricing has inflated over the past year and all of a sudden the market gets a slap in the face and the pricing goes down to a more realistic value. The economy is now going through a black Monday cycle which has escalated into a giant chain reaction.. Twenty years ago I could buy a Nissan Sentra for only $6,700 but in 2009 you cannot buy one for less than $15,000. A 150% price increase during the last two decades.
Pricing over the last 20 years has inflated and people no longer will pay these prices. The only businesses that will survive are the ones that are able to bring their pricing down and yet stay in business. The reason all the car manufacturers are suffering is because rather than re price their models they want everybody to bail them out yet they want to keep their pricing the same. Look at Ford, if you buy one of their cars and for some reason lose your income then for the next year you will not have to make any payments. Other manufacturers are doing similar things.
Twenty years ago I could attend a small college and pay only about $5000 for a complete 2 year program. In 2009 my wife is attending a small school and it now costs over $20,000 for a 2 year program as a medical assistant. By the time she graduates she will owe over $15,000 just in Student Loans. A lot of manufacturers are now giving away their products to students and the unemployed. Adobe will give the unemployed free software. This is software they normally charge over a thoiusand dollars fort. Microsoft will give up to a 90% discount to students. Sun will give away training to students.
Restaurants that have a dollar menu will be the only ones that will survive the current economic conditions. Starbucks is closing hundred of stores because their pricing remains the same as when the economy was good. The reason Dunkin Donut's and McDonalds is able to survive is because they offer alternatives to people on a budget.
Our current crunch is a slap in the face. No more do people want to pay the pricing. The only other way for our world to overcome the current situation is the elimination of money altogether.. If we cannot survive in our own world how can we hope to go beyond our current boundaries and see life on other worlds? The one who makes the most money wins the game needs to be eliminated. We need to refocus. We need to pursue making the world a better place. We need to eliminate crime, money, poverty, homelessness and suffering.
Unemployment in 2009 is at an all time high. At no other time in our history has the unemployment rate been as high as it is today. In the middle East unemployment reach’s about 45%. In the US some cities have reached an unemployment of almost 23% If we eliminated money would the unemployment rate still be this high?
Two books that show you everything that is now happening and what needs to be done are “Atlas Shrugged” by Ayn Rand and Star Trek The Next Generation. I strongly believe that Gene Roddenbery had a message for us all and he portrayed this message in his creation of Star Trek.

As the United States and its allies struggle to get to grips with its new challenges in the Middle East and North Africa, pundits, scholars and journalists have combed every inch of the Muslim Brotherhood's history for clues to what might happen in the event the movement takes control over the region.
I've long made a joke that credit cards are evil. But that's not true. When a person who is responsible with their money uses them responsibly, they are not evil at all. Try renting a car or making a hotel reservation without one. Credit cards also offer a level of protection when you make purchases. For instance, if you buy something online, and you're unhappy with it, or it's never delivered to you, you have the option of disputing the charges. It can protect you from many of the possible dangers of purchasing something from an unknown company.
A showdown is looming in Washington. And it's all about debt. Just to put this into perspective, our national debt stands at about $14 trillion.

After weeks of fierce political debate, India's cabinet has officially approved the first caste-based census since 1931 which will likely lead to better implementation of affirmative action policies and will almost certainly define how politicians campaign for votes in the future.
It would be a difficult task today to find an American who is proud of our Federal Government. Rampant corruption permeates the Democratic and Republican parties and it seems the judicial branch is motivated more by politics and ideology than constitution. It is a terrifying time in America; our federal leaders have decided they know what's best for us and have turned a deaf ear. It's not an Obama failure or a Bush failure.
With ongoing formal accession negotiations that would see Turkey become a permanent, fully-fledged member of the European Union and European Economic Council, political and economic communications between EU members and the Southeast European Republic will reach a fever-pitch over the next decade.
As many Americans continue to go about their busy lives, those who are living near the Gulf Coast are continuing to experience the harm that the BP oil spill has caused to their livelihood. Although it has been three months since the oil rig explosion and massive leak in the the ocean waters of the Gulf, BP politics have not changed very much in the effort to get things cleaned up. While the world watches the trouble being caused by the largest environmental disaster ever faced, it seems as though the political aspect in Washington is at a stand still as neither side can agree on the best course of action.
