I just read an article that said in November there was over 500 thousand layoffs across the U.S. That is the highest since the 1970s....
I can believe it though cause my boyfriend just got laid off. He can't report back to work until the 1st, but that's dependent on if he even still have a job by then.
Times are rough. I just heard that ATT will lay off over 15 thousand workers. Times are definitely rough..
The BIG car companies... I am not sure why they are considered BIG. I mean, there are only like 2 car manufacturers in the U.S... GM and Ford. What about them makes them BIG? Big profit? No. Big sales? No. So what is it? Why are they considered BIG? But anywhooo..
Those BIG ones are claiming that if they don't get the auto bailout that they will go bankrupt. At least that is what GM is screaming.. My question is: Will cars be cheap? Cause I need/want another one.
But on the real though.. I am not going to be stupid. Cars could go to $10k and I wouldn't.. wait.. That's a lie. If an nice car's price drops to $10k, I may HAVE to buy me a new car.. So backtrack... If cars go cheap [ not $10k cheap, but just cheaper], I will not be that fool to buy one.
The economy is rough.. Yeah gas is down, but food is way up and electricity is more up than that.. I will not be the one to buy the new car and then the following month have the repo man banging at my door. I will just stick with my lil Pontie until Obama straighten things out...lol
