U.S., UK see growth resuming but big risks ahead (Reuters)

There is a strong chance the United States and other leading economies will start growing again over the next few quarters, but big risks to the outlook remain, U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner said on Monday. » Full Story on Yahoo! Finance

How do GROW? and how do you get good to excellent RETURN on Investments aka ROI?

As long as the climate of HOLDING the LAWS of USA to BOOK...give STRENGTH to Investment/Stocks...Bonds much NEEDED credibility, is THAT what Geithner is talking about? If so, this is a STEP toward stablity and ECONOMIC recovery on the DOUBLE.

Recovery.......Nope......Obama will start to tax us! Someone will have to pay for the Cap&Trade ( 3000 per every person who pays taxes)
Someone will have to pay for Stimulus ( Proved to be another Chicago failure)
Someone will have to bail out California for their ignorant actions. (let them fall)
Someone will have to pay for the UAW and Government Motors G.M (more money there folks
Someone will have to pay for this G-Damn Health care that runs a trillion per year.

The real risk is all the taxes we are going to pay for this. Which means we won`t be spending alot of money.

We are no longer nationalist while most every country in the world is. Free trade and NAFTA are killing our country and has taken the U.S. back 200 years where everything industrialized is imported. We turned from an industrialized nation to a service nation where evryone had spending power. Now, the spending power is gone due to the fact that the industries in this nation are gone. Until we get the foundation to the economy back where your average person has money, we will keep sinking and the government will have to keep printing money. This cycle will continue until we are on par with Mexico and China. We have to lower our standards (pay, retirement, vacation, the USD) or the countries that we are dealing withh will have to raise their standards. This is why I hate the 2 party system, neither want fair trade.

It does seem that as good news of the our and other nations' economies comes to us through various news souces, too many people, espcially from those sources, are very quick to jump on the negative bandwagon.

I wonder if negativity is not just a symptom or coping mechanism for people with lack of hope; but also, is born of the superstition that hope is naive and will "jinx" progress, as though "The forces at work are watching us respond, and will punish foolish hopefulness."

As long as our actions and behaviors are responsible, why do we sometimes still have cautios optimism, as though too much optimism would thwart out efforts, or as though we need to limit the distance of a fall from hope to despair?

The only way out of a Recession and Depression is get the consumers to spend again. But with the current problems of mass lay offs, few new jobs and higher taxes on luxury item and near future neccessities the consumer will have even less to spend.

Obama is taking money we don't have and is giving it to large Corporations hoping that it will trickle down - however nobody seems to understand that right now there is a trickle up effect working. Less income, less spendable income equals lower taxbase.

We're in for a world of hurt....................
