<< WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The struggling U.S. economy slid into recession in March and its condition was worsened by the Sept. 11 attacks, a member of a panel of economists that officially dates U.S. recessions said on Monday. The announcement by the National Bureau of Economic Research confirmed that a record expansion that began in March 1991 -- after the last nine-month recession that began in mid-1990 -- was snapped exactly a decade later. "The committee is satisfied that the total contraction in the economy is sufficient to merit the determination that a recession is under way," the NBER's business cycle dating committee said. It will be the 10th recession for the world's largest economy since the end of World War Two. >> Don't you just love all this econ speak bull? Now let's lay off a few thousand more people and see if that doesn't give us a "bump." Is there anyone out there who thinks that the laying off of thousands of workers (while forcing the ones who are kept to work longer hours and longer weeks) might not be just a tiny reason for this recession (actually a depression) which the Bush administration and their media lackeys have finally decided to notice?
