Patrick Gilligan Says

Todays' Topic: The Economy.
I hear people talking about the stock market, whether it's up or down and home prices falling and then going up slightly. I hear about all of the jobs still being lost... But No One is talking about the biggest problem facing our economy - Outsourcing! Hundreds of thousands of good paying american jobs with good benefits are gone, for good, and many more are being lost every day. That's the real problem facing this economy and no one is talking about it and even worse -No One is doing anything about it! Untill this problem is addressed, can our economy ever really recover?
Some states are harder hit than others. About eight years ago I was a guest on a University of Michigan talkshow promoting my book Patrick Gilligan Says Be Your Own Boss! The host asked me when I thought the economy in Michigan would turn around. I said it would be several years. How prophetic and pathetic! With all of the job losses here, the Michigan economy might not turn around until the Detroit Lions win the Superbowl.
That's all for now.
