"Unfortunately, economic growth alone is unlikely to solve the nation's impending fiscal problems," Bernanke told the Senate Budget Committee.


We've enjoyed living affluently for a while, but if what Bernake says is true it we will be headed for a pretty severe downturn... especially in Canada if Rogriguez' Private Member's Bill Passes
