How to resolve the credit crunch
The economy is in shambles, people are scared of what is to come, not knowing if they will be able to keep the homes that they have worked so hard for. All these are things that have been caused by the credit crunch. Now we need to figure out how to resolve the credit crunch and get the economy back to the state it should be in. A lot of people think that if the interest rates were to back off a bit that people would be able to pay more of their personal debt off. This would result in the banks not suffering near as severe losses as they have been. It would also allow people to keep the homes that they have worked long and hard to get. If the interest rates were lower it would also put money back in the consumers pocket allowing them to be able to do more things which would help to regenerate the economy. Other people feel that instead of the government paying millions of dollars to bail out the big businesses that got themselves in the position they are in that the money should go to the people around the country to enable them out of their personal financial woes. They feel if they were able to lower the personal debt that they have that they would then be able to put more into the economy by shopping, tourism, dining, and many other areas that would reap rewards from people being able to reinvest in them again. Other people feel that there should be a new credit system created. They feel that a credit system that provided the consumer with low interest rates and local governments with even lower interest rates would help to stimulate the economy. It is a feasible thing to do as personal banks do this on a daily basis. The government needs to put their hands in and help those that are unable to attain the loans that they need to survive. The small business owners could use the government’s help in this regard and if it were to happen that would also help to rebuild the economy. There are no simple solutions to the credit crunch. There are pros and cons to every option that is brought up. It is ultimately up to the powers above us to do what they feel is right by the people throughout the country. All we can do is voice our personal opinions. The big guys hold all the control. Lets hope that they make decisions that will help us all recover.
