The economy is not freaking out. You are.
The economy is, and will continue to be just fine.
Here, here!!!
I was just going to post that even though the gas prices spiked up about 30 cents a gallon in the days after Katrina...
The prices had already fallen this last week...
No reason to panic....and if you put gas prices in perspective to what other products have "gone up" in the last few decades...we are still ahead of the game.
BTW, I just got a NEW SUV yesterday...for my birthday present...THAT is how worried I am!! LOL
