The Palestinian-Israeli “road map” was supposed to be a performance-based plan leading to a two-state solution by 2005. Israel “accepted” the road map, yet it presented 14 reservations, a classic move aimed at placating the international community while, at the same time, presenting its own understanding of what peace or a peace process should look like.

Please remember, when they're talking about 10% - 12% deficit on Gross Domestic Product, they don't tell us that the biggest part of GDP is consumer spending, which can vanish overnight, making the deficit something like 80 - 90% on GDP.

Here:
When a company falls on difficult times, one of the things that seems to happen is they reduce their staff and workers. The remaining workers must find ways to continue to do a good job or risk that their job would be eliminated as well.
Wall street, and the media normally congratulate the CEO for making this type of "tough decision", and… Continue
More Americans are having their power shut off as the weak economy makes it harder to pay bills.
"We see record numbers of households becoming disconnected or in danger of disconnection," says Mark Bixby, energy director of Rockford, Ill.
