1* Generally
speaking, is it good for the economy or bad for the economy when individuals
set money aside in savings?
2* Suppose that everyone in America
cut back on their spending a bit, reduced their debt, and saved a little more
money. Would that be good for the country or bad for the county?
3* Is it
true that every time you save money rather than spend it, you help increase
unemployment?

economy?
