PEOPLE - UNDER OBAMA THINGS ARE NOT LOOKING GOOD (lengthy)

Submitted by: Donald Hank Bad News Posted: 18 Aug 2011 06:38 PM PDT The bad news about the economy just keeps rolling in.  If this is an economic recovery, what in the world is the next "recession" going to look like?  Today there was another huge truckload of bad economic news.  The stock market had another 400 point "correction", applications for unemployment benefits are up again, inflation is higher than expected, home sales have dropped again and Europe is coming apart at the seams.  The financial markets have been in such a state of chaos recently that days like today don't even seem "unusual" anymore.  But we should all be alarmed at what is happening.  We haven't seen anything quite like this since the darkest days of 2008 and 2009.  If more bad news keeps pouring in, we may soon have a very real panic on our hands. I would have thought that my article yesterday, "20 Signs That The World Could Be Headed For An Economic Apocalypse In 2012", would have contained enough bad economic news to last for a while.  But today there was another huge bumper crop of depressing numbers. Are you ready for the carnage?
