It seems that people are becoming like the three wise monkeys with regard the the economy. Instead of evil, however, the subject is recession. Thus, people take the stance of "see no recession, hear no recession, speak no recession".

Yes, we're in a recession. Some are lucky enough, depending on where they live, to only be entering a recession. But as a whole our economy is performing quite poorly, largely due to the inflated dollar that is spiraling downwards.

We could point fingers all day long (it's not hard to figure out, once you stop "seeing no recession"), but it would be far more constructive to pursue policies that would aid a weakening economy, support a declining dollar, and reassure the worried taxpayer.

How do we start? Stop the printing presses at the Federal Reserve, curb deficit spending, and terminate foreign military adventurism. Those three things, if pursued aggressively, would have an immediate and noticeable positive impact in our economy.
