...dishonesty is a fireable offense, and flirting, while not cause for immediate termination, requires counseling and education. And any problematic behavior may make you vulnerable in the next round of layoffs. So if you're not careful, you may end up losing the very thing you're trying to save...

Manufacturers can't count on a swift rebound once a recovery is in progress. Americans are starting to save more, and they may not return to their free-spending ways for years. "There is good reason to believe the capitulation of the American consumer has only just begun," said economist Stephen Roach, chairman of Morgan Stanley Asia. Ajay Chhibber, director of the Asia bureau at the United Nations Development Program in New York City, says the tigers can't expect to weather this recession by temporarily increasing government spending to boost growth until Western export markets recover.

...wisdom says globalization is grinding to a halt. Supposedly, the recession means free trade is down, the worldwide gambit is over, and open markets lost: Protectionism is up, isolation is on the onset, interventionist states won, and we’re spiraling into a 1930s-style “save-yourself” vortex.
