Is the United States economy doing well since the Great Recession? It is, according to economic data. I base my argument on the answers to three states concerning the health of the macroeconomy. The first goal is that of full employment. Full employment is a state in the economy where virtually all who are willing and able to work are employed. The second goal focuses on economic growth, or the growth of our GDP. This is the value of all finished goods and services produced in the United States in a given time period. Good economic growth can be measured by the rate of growth of the GDP. The third goal seeks price stability. Is the value of the dollar inflating, deflating, or staying constant? If the answers to these questions are positive, then it can be stated that our economy is in good shape.

And that's just in the United States. The card has become more secure and can be managed in the palm of your hands. From freezing your account to making deposits it can be even more secure to making online, over the phone, and on your phone/apps by the touch of your phone. That's how the credit card evolved from being a cardboard to cheap flammable plastic and now a card you can wear out. In the end the credit card was invented by a man that couldn’t pay his bill in a restaurant and thought of one of the best thing that people nationwide could use and that forever changed the way we paid for

A good president serves and leads his country. A great president changes the country for the better and leaves a mark on history and people. Barack Obama has done both of these things. He made a difference in the country during his presidency and left his own unique footprint of accomplishments ranging from ending and controlling foreign affairs to starting a conversation about social issues. In my opinion, so far, Barack Obama has been the best president the United States has had so far.

The new consumer protection with this law is that applications such as loan and credit cards must be easy to understand. For example there can’t be any “fine print” that is tricky or hard to understand and there cannot be any hidden fees. Next time banks take big risk and fail the government will no longer bailout them on the reason “too big to fail”. If the bank fails because of their business practices; just like any regular mom and pop store it closes and files bankruptcy.

The Affordable Health Care Act also known as Obamacare is a reform law that was enacted in March of 2010 by the 111th United States Congress that had begun the last two weeks of George W. Bush’s presidency. And what they did was have a legislative branch meeting in 2010 to discuss The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act that was eventually nicknamed Obamacare, that also included the Health Care and Reconciliation Act of 2010.This was an act that would ensure that all Americans have access to good quality affordable health care, and they would create all of the transformation and also keep it in the margins of the health care system. The Congressional Budget Office had determined at the time that the bill was made

U.S. consumers remain addicted to credit. Consumer debt continues to rise to record levels and a significant number of households have lost control of their finances. Credit cards can be a useful financial tool when used appropriately. However, research clearly indicates that consumers are not using credit cards wisely and consumers do not understand the terms and conditions of the credit card contract. Adding to this public dilemma, the practices of numerous credit card issuers have been described as predatory. The Credit CARD Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009, also known as the Credit CARD Act of 2009, is the first major reform of the credit card industry since the Truth in Lending Act of 1968. The Credit CARD Act of

Being born outside the Continental United States, being the sixth left handed president after the war era, and having an elite education that has helped him throughout life is just a small fraction of things that make this man who he is today. From his early life which has influenced him dramatically, his education that has never failed to make him an extremely intelligent man, his life before presidency which has made him a solid person, his many amazing accomplishments that make more and more people look up to him each day, to his extraordinary traits that make all of us feel a bit more humble when we think about them. Many people think Barack Obama has left a lasting impact on each person in the United States. Barack Obama is a great American

At the conclusion of President Barack Obama’s historical consecutive terms in office there is going to be a large number of candidates that are vying for the nominations of the respective parties. Due to the constitutional term limits imposed on the President, Obama is barred to seek re-election in 2016. While there are about 10 candidates running for the republicans, there are only two still in the running for the Democratic Party. The way candidates are recognized by their respective parties to become a candidate for the United States Presidency is first by receiving an invitation to compete in the primaries, then being included in the nationwide polls, as well as being on the ballot for at least 75% of all states. At the conclusion of the February 1st caucus there were 3 Democrats and 10 republicans who were still in the Presidential race, since then one Democratic candidate had dropped out.

When President Obama signed the Credit Card Act of 2009, this put an age limit on people getting a credit card till the age of 21 years and I think this is a genius idea. This bill was had to be passed to protect young teenagers from being exploited by the credit card companies. Before this act a teenager could get a card and buy everything they wanted for example the new jordans or nike shirts like everybody else who can afford it, but most teenagers “Know little to nothing about managing money”(CreditDonkey). This means most teens would spend money that they do not have so the credit card companies can charge them interest rates and put teens into debt. With this Credit Card Act in place a teenager can still get
