    The American economy will remain strong because....

    In my opionion we are going to face some very serious economic times. My only worry is that the big problems won't happen until after the 2004 election. Which will mean that we might be stuck with a president who can't come up with real economic answers. Only tax cuts to the most wealthy. I...

I know there are a lot of advantages to using the metric system because it makes more logical sense. But think...
