             This article is about the concern of Sen. Richard Shelby about Europe's Financial situation. HE says that if Greece defaults in its debt then it could put the US of A in another recession. HE says that we are connected with the European economy no matter what. HE says whatever happens their effects us. He also says that's Greece is just the tip of the iceberg. He says that Europe's instability is going to effect us in some way.

         This connects to what we are studying because the senator is part of the senate which is part of the legislative branch. The senators job is to analyze the economy and create laws that will benefit the economy. This senator is looking into the future so he can pass laws based on what will happen. The senator is trying to explain how the European economy is going to effect ours. The other senators must agree to pass a law.

           This effects my life because the economy effects every ones life practically. My mom also owns two private business and clients often leave because of the economy. This effects the income too and the amount of privileges we can afford.This effects young people like me because the school cant afford a lot of supplies for the students. Also this effected me because recently my dad quit his job for another job that was hard to find because of the economy.

            I believe that the senators should focus on our own economy instead of focusing on other countries. For example, Our economy is very bad right now and the government is focusing on other countries like Greece and Libya. This mean that the government is ashamed of our economy and is trying to avoid the problem by trying to fix other problems. But OUR economy is most important to US at the moment. Even though is sounds selfish it is true. We need to fix our problems before becoming a hero.
