That's how The New York Times reports one machine toolmaker in Michigan as feeling about the current economic state, with unemployment now reaching a twenty-five-year high of 8.1 percent.
In other economic news, Wall Street staged a modest rally in response to climbing unemployment with the Dow rising 32.5 points

More people were killed in Mexico's drug war in 2008 than American servicemen in the entire Iraq war. And the guns used in the killings are coming from the United States. The problem is now so bad that American universities are advising college students not to travel to Mexico during spring break. (See the NPR story.)
