I do remember the 70's, but the current situation is worse and getting more worse. We haven't reached the bottom yet!

money.cnn.com/2008/12/01/news/economy/recession/ - 65k
NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The National Bureau of Economic Research said Monday that the U.S. has been in a recession since December 2007, making official what most Americans have already believed about the state of the economy .
Ferd, stop the denials. This is what the US government says. This is not hyperbole.

Deflation is occuring now, and will continue through summer. But inflation will hit eventually, and it ain't gonna be pretty.
What are we gonna do when gas goes back up to $4 a gallon?
And it will.

Re: Are You Prepared For a Rough Ride in 2009?
What are interest rates supposed to do in the near future? Right now I have a HELOC that I'm using to pay for the home we own in Nashville, and my interest rate on it is 2.25%!!!! My home mortgage is at 5%, I think, but it's locked in.

It is NOT as bad as the late 70's not even close.

I remember the late seventies. My parents remember the late seventies.
There was no talk of a global collapse, though times were tough.
The seventies were bad, but everyone I know who lived through that decade says this is worse, excluding you.

We are going to buy the new 2010 Ford Fusion hybrid coming out in June that gets 34 mpg in the CITY!!!! The car mags are rating it way ahead of the Toyota Camry Hybrid and Nissan Altima Hybrid. It is good to see an American Car company finally get some praise.
