This is a great post. This would be helpful for those who keeps on watching the thread of the economy and I think everyone should be aware about this matter because this would guide us in our economic related activities considering the fact that we are the ones who are dictating to where the economic status would go, whether to rise or to fall. This is more important at present due to economic crisis that we are experiencing specially that the US economy gets worse as time pass by and that's what recent reports suggest. In fact, over three-fourths of Americans distrust financial system at present and the American consumer's mistrust of the country's economic system proceeds to increase. More than three in four Americans interviewed said they do not trust the country's financial system. Analysts say that regulators can work to rebuild that confidence. But consumers also need to be monetarily literate to observe the program. Yes, we, as consumers, should be financially literate to help the country get rid of economic crisis and do not merely depend on the president and the government officials. We should have self discipline when it comes to financial matters considering the fact that it's all what we can do to help make a better national economy.
