and Few Payments: The Role of Debt in the Financial Lives of Economic
Vulnerable Families.
Social Service Review, Academic Database JSTOR. 216-300).
The article defines how there is economic
assistance available to families that are facing hard times and how it
describes how people in social services can assist them. The intended audience is for social
workers and gives information on the skills that are necessary to
assist families that are in economic crisis. In my paper I plan to touch on some of the skills.

The article states how the economy can effect
personal health in a negative and believe it or not have a positive way
which I found highly interesting in how a negative thing can help a
person preserver.This article focuses towards people in the
sociology field and how best to work with people that are looking for
help with their personal state of mind. I plan to list and explain positive ways that the economy can effect personal health.

Number 5 on the top 10 list is poverty in the US. The US is one of the richest countries but is behind in many services that other countries have with universal healthcare. The middle class is hit the hardest when it comes to taxationI will note what can be done to solve ongoing poverty and the cost of living.
US Department of Commerce (2015). Census Bureau Economic Statistics. Retrieved from http:// www.census.gov/econ/
The Census Bureau conducts studies and research to improve the economy within the US through ways on conducting surveys. The data is compiled to be used in finding the best ways to make sure that there are programs to combat poor economic situations. Every five years a census is taken. I will use some of the data to show how it was researched for economic patterns.
The pupose of the article is
to inform students, parents and educators that the is a new college ranking
tool called the Obama Administration College Scorecard to rank colleges on how
they may predict a college graduate’s earnings 10 years after graduating and
what percent of graduats are paying back college loans.
This article focuses on consumer spending and how it may be on an upward trend and the
reasons could be more jobs, credit is more easier to access and lower cost of
gasoline.
The purpose of this article is to explain how the americans faith in the creditably of the U.S. Government
is on a downward slump with high interest used car loans, high interest
mortgage loans, homes underwater and bad consumer investments. The U.S. dollar
is not what it used to be and the U.S. economy is in need of a positive
economic forecast..
Puzzanghera, Jim. Business Desk. Part C, Pg.3. Los
Angeles Times. September 24, 2015
The purpose of this article is to touchh on the U.S. nation’s AAA credit rating that is in jeopardy with
a potential federal government shutdown as the September 20th fiscal
year approached. The borrowing ability is at risk where we have already reached
$18.1 trillion in debt. Republicans are taking away funding such as Planned Parenthood
which is an essential program needed in our economic environment.
The purpose of this article is to tell how the hourly wage earnings have dropped slightly and the jobs
created by the private sector were only at 118,000 and rising interest rates by
the Federal Reserve Board. The need t boost the economy needs to be at a faster
rate and the presidential nominations will need to be more closely watched as
we wait to see what is in store for us as Americans.
The purpose of this article is that the U.S.economy is headed for a recession the U.S.
would be in for Americans being unprepared to take economic fighting measures
and the confidence in the U.S. economy would rapidly decline at fast rate. Economic
spending would take a down side with consumers being very cautious and not
spending as before..
Reflection
I posted to
Deborah Ortega AIP Style and
Andrew Daniel Rocha's OSA Style. Each had totally different style that was very unique to their own discipline. Their summaries were very easy to read and very nicely annotated.
