A Banal Sign of Economic Hardship...


Three weeks ago I went to my local library and found its electronic book catalog. After searching for a "Start Your Own EBay Business" book, I wrote down four books' call numbers and went to find them.

Much to my surprise, three out of the four books have already been checked out.

And what was left was not a good book, at least that's what I gleaned after skimming its pages.

Yes, signs of mass unemployment and a protracted economic crisis.

And I don't expect to see these books back on the shelf anytime soon.
