Would the back of a herd know if the front was running off a cliff?

 


50% of Americans…have only a one-month cushion,


roughly two paychecks or less,


 before they would be unable to fully meet their financial obligations


 if they were to lose their jobs.


 


Twenty-nine percent of those making $100,000 or more a year


 said they would have trouble paying the bills


 after more than a month of unemployment.


 


Financial Fears Grow


Marketwatch


 


Has corruption of the political, capitalist and information systems


negatively influenced economic performance and consumer behavior


through legislation, budget appropriation, regulation and taxation


to benefit a few at the expense of many?
