I was pissed off election night, because I know Obama didn't deserve to be re-elected, but America has spoken. I predict the next four years will much worse than the last.
You really should seriously think about that statement. We have slowly been working our way out from the recession, and I do mean slowly, but we are in a much better place than we were four years ago. I said that no matter who won, things are going to get better, although I am not expecting a high growth recovery. The problem that we cannot combat is 10,000 people leaving the workforce to retirement every single day.
Because of all the baby boomers retiring, consumption is not going to be as big of a driving force behind our economy as it has been over the last thirty years, so we need to figure out what will drive our economy. The answer is energy, infrastructure, manufacturing, and exports. We have to stop buying everything from outside the US, even if it costs us a little bit more.
