Which are you facing Austerity or Properity ?
Around the world in the recession that has hit us since the original credit crunch the world is hit by Austerity or some form of resource poverty. But not everyone. Even though we are in recession around the world some people are still enjoying prosperity and financial boom. Which are you facing? Austerity or Prosperity?
We are still in boom, feeling little slowed but yes definitely no austerity. We are in prosperity zone, because we without leverage, interest free persons and governments. Happy sleeping in the night.
What country are you in? Very few industries are up. State and county governments are in severe debt in the US. Money doesn't go as far as it used to either. As far as I can tell, Europe is much worse off.
I take your comment to mean that the Shariah Finance sector is not in recession.
I am in Kuwait. I am debt free, I have no debt, not even on my credit card or any other type, not even Islamic Finance or Shariah Finance.
Here government is also debt free,
We're making more money than ever yet the necessities of life keep going up. I don't know what really poor people do. So as I look to the future, I see continued austerity for myself and others because I don't forsee the cost of goods and services going down anytime soon. Frankly, we are almost to a crisis state in this country.
my_girl_sara some incomes are going up. But so too are prices. Our local newspaper cost $1 dollar it has gone up to $2 dollars 80 cents recently. Eggs and bread have also gone up along with Petroleum Gas and Home Energy bills.

Is there anyone reading who can explain the global economic crisis simply and objectively in just a few paragraphs? When I try to find information to understand what's going on with the Euro and with the US economy, there is so much biased nonsense. Everything from unhelpful off-topic political...

Apparently, all of the billions of Euros just transferred to Greece to ease its "crisis" will go directly to the banksters to cover outstanding interest payments, and will do nothing whatsoever for the country or its people. The situation is clearly unsustainable, and there are other...

Why aren't governments calling China, Communist China anymore?I know that China is a global force to be reckoned with, but I'm confused at why the world is no longer calling them "Communist China?"
