The Institute for Supply Management said Wednesday its manufacturing index rose to 56.3 in August from 55.5 in July. A reading above 50 indicates growth. Manufacturing has helped lead the economy out of the worst recession since the 1930s. The trade group's index has surged since late 2009 and hit a 6-year high in April. But as economic growth has slowed this summer, expansion in the manufacturing sector has leveled off. In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. Dwight D. Eisenhower [ link to www.h-net.org] |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1079553Be that as it may, just yesterday I wrote a letter of recommendation to a friends son. He's 20 and jobless and glad to have gotten that job at Mickies D's. He starts Saturday. Baby steps, remember it's not all gloom and doom.
