Which gets me to the question of this blog: Should the Church continue to mandate that each congregation in the United States and Canada sponsor a Boy Scout Troop?
The Solution to the Bagel
Some economists are starting to get antsy for the end of this bagel (recession). Many are already saying that they see the light at the end of the tunnel. Many are already saying that by the end of the year we will have an official end to the bagel (positive GDP growth).
Which led me to think… what kind of major event would happen which would stimulate this country’s economy out of such a severe recessional slump?
