The economy, stu...

Ok -- you're not stupid.

I don't know much about things in the financial world, I know. But here's what I see:

A member of my family was laid off last week.

Yesterday C's company laid off 11 people. Something they have never done in the 11+ years he's been there. [C still has a job.]

And Bush finally admits (as he did in Kansas) that, "There are serious signs that the economy is weakening and that we got to do something about it."

We have to ask ourselves how bad is it?
