Our economy?

You know guys, reading these posts, you could be talking about the US too. Crime is rising, prices are outrageous, fuel is $5.00 gallon in some areas, the housing market is not good. It is a sad state of affairs it seems in the entire world. It is sad that people feel they are not safe in their own homes and cannot protect their families. I do not know about SA but I know the US government does not do enough when it comes to rising fuel costs and such. Why doesn't the President just say Enough already? The war in Iraq? I will not even go there. Hang in there SA!

I hear you Diane. When it comes to oil prices in particular, that's clearly a global issue. It's in the capacity to absorb and adjust these shocks where we probably differ most. A question of scale on multiple fronts, really.
