US: Obama speaks on the Economy
[communicating labour rights] As Obama rightly points out (and others have long before he has), the Iraq war will cost us at least one trillion dollars–likely two trillion dollars. Democrats should be saying, “we’d be happy to run a deficit if we were putting in place a single-payer health care system.”

Does the Economy Hold a Silver Lining For Yellow Pages?
[Kelsey Group Blogs] I’ve spent quite a bit of time over the Easter holiday talking with friends and family about the economy and how they are dealing with the budget crunch we are all experiencing.

Economy Enters Campaign Banter
[Media Mouse: Grand Rapids, Michigan News and Independent Media] But to the surprise of many Democratic campaign strategists, neither candidate has consistently sustained a focus on the economy -- despite a barrage of polling data showing it has vaulted over the Iraq war in the past four months as the most pressing concern of voters.

[WinExtra] Regardless of whether the network you are taking part in is Facebook, Twitter or even FriendFeed this economy of friending is being built on the inflationary value of the so-called leaders or early adopters who come into any new network with their train of hopeful hanger-on’s.
