DONT BE SURPRISED IF....

This is just a general list of mention of things that are brewing that concerns us all. Feel free to add to the list while taking note of what is listed. We are in the tail end of a recession that is fighting very hard to worsen instead of letting a new cycle of prosperity kick in. What we do or don't do as a Nation affects us all

DON'T BE SURPRISED IF...

1. Cost of gasoline stays high or even goes up

2. High unemployment stays with us for another year

3. Foreclosures kick into a final phase releasing lots of shadow inventory now that litigation and regulation is in settled/in place

4. That a percentage of Americans are not happy with either presidential primary choices choosing the lesser of the two

5. Cities across the Nation consider filing bankruptcy to help deal with out of control costs and to keep operational

6. Congress continues to remain ineffective and out of touch

7. Our Global enemies watch with interest as our economy struggles for footing looking for opportunity to add more havoc

8. Real Estate continues to be a smart purchase primarily because it is fair market priced and has historic interests rates

9. Attorneys will thrive from all the litigation opportunities from people who believe they have been treated unfairly

10. Online college courses will become more attractive because of price, accessibility and ease of use

I could go on and on...but I believe I made some points to ponder..

If you have any, please add yours below for everyone's consideration

Richie,

I think you  must watch the same news channel I do.  None of those things will surprise me.  It seems like we have to adjust to the "new normal" in a lot of areas of life.  I am a native Californian (grew up in Palm Springs and Balboa).  I really miss CA of a couple of decades ago!  Good luck to you.

Yep, everything on your list is true, but I would be interested in seeing a list of all the things that going well and we as a nation should be grateful for.

Richie,

Many of could add to your already depressing list. The government has the means and the resources to make things better for all Americans...they just lack the will and commitment.
