Once again, we studied the Capitals again. I'm getting a headache from reciting them. But, it's more of a "my brain is jammed packed with so much information" kind of headache. You know what I'm talking about. We also learned about how one of the most popular deserts is growing larger, and the government there is forcing people out. And if you don't move when they tell you too--your dead meat. Literally, they'll kill you. We saw an article on the CNN website about how Sarah Palin is criticized for using 'blood libel'. Some people didn't like the fact that she used a phrase that is about hating Jews and is filled with pain in World History. But, Mr. Bruns didn't want to get too far into that subject. Another article we looked at was the December unemployment rate. Unfortunately, the rate of unemployment was at 9.4%. That's absolutely terrible. Here are some Economic Indicators--
Economic Indicators:
1. Infltion or Deflation
2. Unemployment Rate goes up
3. Companies lose money -> Job Layoffs -> People Quit Buying, and the cycle repeats itself.
4. Dow Jones
5. Housing Starts
6. Tax Cuts-Rebates
7. Lower Interest Rates
8.Economic Stimulus Package
