I am not particularly politically or economically minded however the recent economic crisis was nearly impossible to miss. Although I was personally shocked to find how many people where completely taken by surprise. Economists had been warning us of the likelihood of this exact situation for several months, even years. The implications of this disaster were noticeable in neighborhood stores, as well as global exchange. Never the less people continued to go about their daily lives, possibly hoping it would go away. Unfortunately the economy is incapable of correcting itself completely.
I was drawn to read an article: The article expresses the current situation and plans of correcting it. The government has already taken steps to control this crisis by banning companies from "short selling" 799 financial groups and companies. This moratorium may prove to be little more than speed bump for this financial slide. Also in regards to the financial bailout it seams it will anger many and have a very important sway in this years election.
