Dear America
Dear America,
I realize the stock market crashed 4% and that a lot of stupid and greedy people screwed us with their mortgage lust. I realize that gas prices are higher than we like. I also realize that the Chargers got screwed on Sunday. Here is what I don't understand: why is everyone panicking???? Panic and fear NEVER make problems get better. The stock market is still 40% higher than it was ten years ago. There is still a great deal of opportunity ahead of us. People were screaming end of the world after Sept. 11th. It didn't happen. We've survived just fine for the past 7 years. We'll be fine. Consumers need to continue saving and spending. Don't pull all your money out and put it under a mattress. If everyone would just remain calm, we can avoid a total depression. Recession is not the end of the world, depression is much worse. Don't listen to the media, they are just selling papers. Yeah, it's bad, I get that. Innovate, look for solutions, and live your lives. Oh and as for the San Diego Chargers, play defense on two more plays and you wouldn't have lost. Quit whining. You too, America.
