The Lost Decade

A Reprint for Tierra Grande by James P. Gaines

For those who wish to live in “interesting times,” the past ten years have been a dream come true. The first decade of the new millennium produced the highest economic highs and the lowest economic lows the country has seen in more than 70 years.  The swings were so broad that in many key aspects the decade ended about where it began. With all its trials and tribulations, this period may go down in economic history as the “Lost Decade.”
