Recession or Not?

The link below gives a pretty balanced appraisal of the current state of the American economy, with the argument against recession and the case for a recession, and even the possibility that we have already entered into a recession. With the greedy #$%&*@ and their oil and gasoline prices, they're trying ever so hard to push the envelope as far as possible and grab every last penny they can get from us, thus tipping the economy into recession. I remember on 9/11, a number of gas stations around here (Cleveland) jumped the price of gasoline dramatically that day to take advantage of the situation. Instead, the Ohio Attorney General, a Republican, filed charges against these money grubbers, and in the end, they had to sell gasoline below the market price for a period!!! Now, with all of this free market crap, the wealthy investors jump the price for what MIGHT happen. I don't see a difference, do you? I think you'll like the article below.
