blog 6: Hope

Everyone knows about how the economy has been in a recession. It’s been about a year and it’s been getting worse. The economic stimulus bill has been presented by Barack Obama as an attempt to save the economy. Many people have doubted that it will actually work while others hope for the best. Although this will bring down the value of the dollar it will help our nation get back to where we were and better. The president said he would not pretend “that today marks the end of our economic problems.” I agree with what he said. People can’t just think that because of this bill, tomorrow everything financially down will be right back to normal. This whole thing will take time, but it gives our country hope for the future. I personally believe that this stimulus bill will give our country the best chance for a positive future.
