"Is the Recession Really Over?"
Even though some overly optimistic economic "experts" have pronounced the end of the recession in the USA, reality portrays quite a different picture. "Retail sales disappointed in July, and the number of newly laid-off workers filing claims for unemployment benefits rose UNEXPECTEDLY last week" (A.P., August 13, 2009). At the same time, our federal deficit is climbing into historic heights, and Mr. Obama's approval rates for his job performance has dropped to historic lows. WHY is God NOT blessing this country?
