Austerity coming to America
The 2009 stimulus plan was supposed to get the US economy back on track, however almost one year after Congress passed the Recovery Act the US is still struggling to get its finances back on track. While Wall Street is back to normal, everyday Americans are seeing high numbers of unemployment and home foreclosures. As the stimulus fails, could the US see European style austerity measures?
