Cincinnati, OH

It seems as if the whole state of Ohio, among other states have been trying to bounce back from this whole "blackout" experience, what's the world coming to, we can't survive without technology? Most of the whole front page of "The Cincinnati Enquirer" involved information about the blackout and dealing with the lack of gas, food, and ice. A little section had the information on the stock market. It seems as if within the past week all newspapers are dealing with the same stories, lets hope we can all survive this technology surge and these outrageous gas prices - that is if we don't run out of it!

Are there any generalizations you can draw from the mix of news stories from the various regions?

I'm not entirely sure if I understand what you mean?

My thought is that our economy, the United States, is going down hill. Gas prices are rising, across the states, jobs aren't paying enough. There just isn't as much money to be thrown around. People aren't going to be able to afford the items we've grown to depend on and they won't know what to do. What on earth would someone do without technology? We lose power for not even a week and everyone freaks out! Could you imagine living in the days of "Little House On The Prairie"?

Is that what you were looking for?
