It's Official: US Recession Since December '07


On December 2, 2008, Economists announced that the US has been in a recession since last December.

In declaring that the economy has been in a downturn for the last twelve months, economists confirmed what many Americans have already been experiencing: job cuts, bank bailouts and depreciation of the dollar.

This economic news didn't seem to shock many Americans. It seemed more of a question of "when," rather than "if," a recession would be announced.
