Most Important Economic Problems


Yesterday at breakfast, a retired engineering professor asked me what the biggest problem facing my business was: "uncertainty about government policy and taxes" or "uncertainty about business conditions". Like most of the people in the survey graphed above, I've got to say that the problem is slack sales (for our customers--we're actually doing really well, especially considering economic conditions). Healthcare cost increases have, mercifully, begun to stabilize, so that's out of the way, but we need more stimulus.
That is all.
