		<description><![CDATA[New Stock Market Alert and Debt Tip today!
With the recent unemployment numbers coming out, the Obama Administration is in full SPIN mode right now attempting to convince the country that the unemployment problem is getting fixed and the stimulus package is working.  Unfortunately, it looks like this is the furthest from reality and this has [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wrote about this on the stock market alert and thought it was worth repeating here, on the main blog.  The Government has a formula called the birth/death model.  This model &#8220;estimates&#8221; (note dangerous liberty to give any government based accounting system) how many jobs were either created or lost, that the Department of Labor measuring [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I talk about the economy or post charts, there is the tendency to automatically think that it will be hard to understand.  This concept is not too difficult to understand and I encourage you to try.  It is important.

		<description><![CDATA[I think that our current situation could feel like we are in a depression at some point.  However, I doubt that you could hardly compare this to the Great Depression. Michael Panzner wrote in his blog (www.financialarmageddon.com) a great illustration of those times.
&#8220;But then the world seemed benign enough in early 1931. It is the second phase [...]]]></description>
