I do believe that the economic crises is affecting a lot of young people. I can see why the junior/senior econ class at a high school in Missouri would have an impact on person being interviewed because young people have a lot to say but most of the time they are not heard. I do believe it is important for us to be listing to what is going on it the world because we will be the future and want to try to avoid what is happening right now. Everyone is going through a hard time and i wouldn't want my kids or their kids to be going through that.

I think that the way people can save this economy is being educated. With education one gains the power to do anything to do anything that he/she wants to do. If people were to learn about how our economy works then we might have the power to save it. I think we need to stop buying things that we can't afford too. I think that is the real reason that our economy is in trouble. If we just save money and wait to buy something we really want then we would be ok.The problem is that when people buy on credit they said more than they can afford and never pay it back.

i think that the economic crisis is defiantly affecting young people. Because +alot of seniors and juniors are getting ready to go to college and they need money to pay for it. and i think the youth should pay way more attention to what is going on in our country because it affects younger people more than the older. And if people are educated about this situation they can educate other people about the situation.
