Who’s to Blame for Lousy Economy
Author: ltfiggs

industrial-cityWho’s to blame for this lousy economy? We can blame the housing market bubble which popped, or the banking & mortgage industries, or maybe the rising health care costs and skyrocketing insurance premiums which affect auto-makers, doctors’ private sectors, small & medium-size businesses. There’s also the ever-rising prices of food and utilities to blame. All the above is causing escalating unemployment rates with multiple business closings, which certainly stunts employment opportunities. Maybe if Conservation bills hadn’t been blocked over 15 yrs. ago, we wouldn’t have gone through an SUV/fuel-hogs era and learned sooner to be a efficiently green nation.

  1. i blame the democrats clinton screwed the economy in the 90s

  2. I blame the economy on too many personal and business decisions that were based on cheap energy. It was too cheap to care about wasting it and worse that it scewed thinking about labor costs and made using virgin resources for throw away goods cheaper than sustainable ones.

    I believe decisions that affect the environment can be just as ethically judged as interpersonal behavior in the eyes of God.
