The dollar has been devaluing since 2001. It's been a steady decline, during which it has lost almost 52% of its value. Dispite what the naysayers might think, the decline in the dollar is the direct result of federal deficit spending since 2001. I got news for you. The dollar has been devaluing since 2001.

The housing market has been bad for about that long of a time, but it was the lenders and stupid people that got the housing market in such a mess. The Republicans or Bush had nothing to do with it. I have been around a very long time and the economy always has it's ups and downs. Only during the great depression did people panic and that was a lot of the cause back then. By the way, a Democrat was in office during the great depression. So how do you explain that.

We have not had one yet. The dollar fluctuates according to trade balances. The more we export then you will see an increase in the dollar, the more we import then the dollar drops. We are buying more than we are selling. The way to turn this trend around is quit consuming especially oil and petroleum based products.

This is what our economy does once every ten years or so. If it didn't oscillate and rebound like it's supposed to, then I'd worry. I call it normal.
