Everywhere you look there is bad economic news. Left and right companies are closing, people are being laid off, and money is getting tight. I, for one, was not going to let that happen. I felt it was my patriotic duty to not let the country fail and to not let the bad guys (terrorists, communists, bankers, CEO’s – whoever the bad guys are this week) win. So Matt and I went out and stimulated the economy.
Now, you may be tempted to say that it isn’t really patriotism that led me into buying a new plasma TV, new TV furniture, and other electronics – but you would be wrong! What other reason could I have for the purchase? I wouldn’t do it just so I could watch the NCAA tournament in HD. That would be silly.
I will admit I was disappointed when the stock market went down on Monday. I was expecting that all my spending would have caused the economy to right itself. Oh well. I guess I have to go spend more money.
