Answers. Now. - Investing America’s on hold because the world’s turned upside down.



The dollar is falling, but the treasury secretary is off in Africa debating a rock star. Enron aftershocks continue to sound through corporate America, but Congress can't pass a bill to right the accounting-fraud wrongs. The head of homeland security has a color-code system for terrorist alerts that not one person in a thousand takes seriously. The president says there's no science to back up the so-called global-warming threat, but then he issues a lengthy report on the subject to the U.N. He also insists that the government will be frugal with taxpayer money, but then he signs every spending bill Congress sends him, making LBJ look like a skinflint.
