Economic Issues In America

We the people of America have the right to make changes if we choose too. America as we know it, is going down the drain. The economy, war of terror, and unemployment are some major issues America is having. As we speak these issues are gradually developing more and more. As Americans we have always managed to adapt and overcome and that’s what we’ll have to do to conquer these issues.
One of the immense issues is the American economy. Less than a year ago economist described America’s economy as the “Lonely Locomotive of the world economy.” The United States is facing economic disaster on a scale few nations have ever experienced. The American exports have started to suffer. It is about 3% lower than last year. When exports are lower they start to drain the demand for the domestic economy. Under U.S. trade and globalization policies America is loosing money. Third world countries are taking over American manufactures. American manufactures cannot compete with third world countries and what they pay their employees. Due to the U.S. trade and globalization policies America has had a negative balance of trade over 10 million in the last two decades.

Another issue that America is facing is the war on terror.

The war on terror has been going on for decades. One the major terrorist attacks was the attack on the twin towers. On September 11, 2001 two planes crashed into the twin towers many Americans, their families, and the entire country was affected by this devastating act. After that awful event American declared war of terror. The U.S. military has spent decades fighting this war. We are still fighting today, as it is easier for terrorist to get access to weapons in this day and time. But luckily we have brave men and women that fight for us everyday and this great

country.
In these days in time people are loosing there jobs constantly. The unemployment rate has fell to 5.1 percent and the number of unemployed persons edged down to 8 million. Unemployment rate is at a 7-1/2 year low. The number of people unemployed for less than 5 weeks decreased by 393,000 to 2.1 million. With the unemployment rate rising and people loosing their jobs it is getting harder on all Americas. Epically the people with families who cant afford to provide for themselves much less their family.
To improve America I think we should start by working together as one nation to improve the issues we are going through during this time. I feel like to improve America we should start at the heart of the nation and by that I mean the people. We must improve ourselves for the better to be able rectify the situation. We must learn how to look at ourselves first and figure what we can do as an individual to give back. When we can assess on own problems to better ourselves and then we can as a nation can accumulate with each other to better America.
