This article was written by Cindi Ross Scoppe the associate editor for the website "thestate.com". In this article of hers she basiclly talks about the economic situation that we as americans have gotten ourselves in. She really is talking to the people in South Carolina and our economy. Like I said this article is directed to not just residents of South Carolina but to the American people as a whole. The whole point that she is trying to make is for people to keep on spending their money, even during this economic crisis.
Ms. Scoppe says that we need to continue spending to keep the economy moving. If we suddenly stopped spending we would be headed down the road toward another depression. She clearly gives her suggestion to help stop all of this. We need to "cut out pay raises in order to reduce layoffs" she said in her article. All through her article she gives suggestions by asking questions like "What if....". I know we need to solve this problem and fast. I just hope that our goverment comes up of a better way of doing things so our economy can become than it ever has.
