thank you, I pretty got half of my paper right off there.


anyways, the paper is on CURRENT state of economic (no predications on future). and I think I know what I need to concentrate on. The paper is 2-3 pages, less graph, charts and data. Assuming, I have one paragraph each for Unemployment, Inflation, and GDP. I think I will have a solid 2 pages, and the rest I will fill in with other indicators from that yahoo link. now this is Plan A, plan B I haven't thought of yet 🙂
