U.S. President Barack Obama speaks about the financial crisis on Wall ...

US President Barack Obama addressed Wall Street last Monday. It has been a year since the United States nearly lost its economic prowess. With strength gradually being back, he wants banks to observe more frugality. The same mistakes are uncalled for. The US recession has been the worst ever since the Great Depression. He refers to his country as a “patient” not yet out of his crutches. Washington, Wall Street, and across America jointly caused the meltdown. Slowly rising from its fall, he wants rich countries “to do more to rein in financial industry abuses.” He warns that government did a “$787-billion plan passed by Congress in February”. In the worst of circumstances, he can give another bailout for the economy. The United States must learn from the crisis and do its best to make a successful turnaround.

This is good news, and the President's message is absolutely right. We can't continue the same practices that have played a role in causing this disaster. The country must learn from it's mistakes and emerge even stronger to prevent something like this from happening again. However, let's not get ahead of ourselves. There are still a lot of economic problems that need to be taken care of right now.
