Assignment #2 C Archie

From the title of this article I can't decide if the author is confronting the federal government or saying that they have to make the decisions that others can't. Of course there is no easy answer to our economic problems, but ambiguity just makes it worse. I feel that at this point in our situation the businesses and families should have come up with their financial plans and begun to put them into action. This is not the time to debate, that should be done with. For what happens tomorrow you should have already set up for.
In this article I see a lot of fence-sitting and that concerns me. Of course there is a good and bad side to whichever action is considered but this is too much. For the economy to recover we need to have the confidence to do what needs to be done. This article just raises questions that could make some people decide to do nothing.
I see too much doubt in the economy in this article. Yes, this is a bad time and some doubt is always going to be there, but if it wasn't for the media interpretation I feel that some of this can be averted. This is a good, true article, I just feel that it could have been written in a better manner.
