Today we started volunteering at the Narragansett Chamber. There were mahy visitors and quite a few were from Canada. Right now the exchange rate favors the Canadian visitors. In the past the exchange rate favored the US dollar.
Unfortuately, the slide in the credit rating of the Treauries will lower the value of the US currency. Folks are looking for security and right now the dollar does not seem solid.
I guess the question for next year's election will be how can we jump start our economy. This issue might swing the 2012 elections. So far, too many folks are out of work. Are we headed now for another deep recession? I hope not.
Fancy Nancy Says: It is time for our government to fund the job market, not just the banks! They have had their turn. It did not help the job market. We need a change in policy.
