A World Recession

I've noticed that a lot of places are closing an hour early, so I thought this would be a great topic to chat about. When I ask why early, I always get an answer "No one is buying right now". How bad is our economy? Then I look at how the United States is such a huge part of the global economy. It's like the economy has been unbalanced, because when Americans do spend, we spend more than we earn, and with the country running massive external deficits, I think our bad economy will spill over to other countries, if it hasn't already.

I think the way it will spill over to other countries is through trade.

Your thoughts.
