With America's economy adding over a billion dollars of debt daily, the stress has been put on the American citizen. Many people have had to change their lifestyle to cope with the economy. I had the opportunity to ask several students if they or their family have been affected in any way.

      Based on our results, fifty percent of those interviewed have had to adjust to our failing economy. Tavish Lawson said that it is more difficult to find a job and the gas prices aren't helping. One student is concerned with her Grandpa's car lot. If people don't have money to buy cars it is very unlikely that many sales will happen. Another student said that they have not adjusted in any way, but will have to if it gets any worse.

      With today's economy, some people are scared, others are not worried at all. We need not be worried, we just need to make smart economical decisions. United, America can overcome almost any obstacle.
