What do we all do or don’t do that hinders the economy? Is there a group of people that could be doing more to help the total US economy?

Get a good education so you can get a good job.
Work hard and save money.
Don’t be wasteful.
Vote to reduce government “benefits” to lazy people.

Work harder and longer hours too! Make sure your kids do well in school and don’t buy as many foreign products, especially fuel!

Buy US products, invest your saved money in the US stock market, and travel to US destinations rather than abroad.

Save more money. Increased personal savings means more money for capital which stimulates the economy.

Shop til you drop. This will help everyone.

Stop shopping at places like WalMart. “Mom and Pop” stores need support!

There are many things, but I will limit my answer to one single thing, referring to what we, the consumer can do.
Reduce personal debt.
This has resulted in far too many bankruptcies, which leads to excessive losses to creditors, which results in exorbitant interest rates, as well as increased prices where retailers who carry credit, must also absorb those losses.
The effect on ones own personal well being is obvious.

The economy is in real good shape right now actually. Very low unempolyment, healthier interest rates, good Wall Street performance……..what’s the concern?
Everyone needs to save money. We have become an economy of spenders, not savers. This will be our ruin in the end.

vote against George W. Bush wasting money (and lives) abroad in pursuit of solving problems he is helping to create.
