Teamwork, that's the "doom and gloom" that you're facing in Europe, having experienced a different type of meltdown than in the US. I won't blame Karamanlis for that in Greece, like many of my co-patriots do, I will blame the gray/black market economy of Greece and that of the Old Continent. Here in the US, the economy is more dynamic and driven by entrepreneurship, unlike Europe that it requires brick and mortar industries that have long showed they cannot adapt to new technologies and new methods of shifting their resources to produce revenue. In other words, the economy is in recovery and while it will take a while to achieve record levels it's most definitely past the bottom. In the US the psychological factor of having a competent president has been accomplished. The economical stimulus is in the process of creating several million jobs, which in turn will increase industrial production and both corporate and consumer spending. I am sick and tired of hearing this "economy is bad" thing. I currently respond to email offers that mention that as an excuse for lowballing with a resounding "go **** yourself"
