April 2010 saw a rise in home sales over the previous month. More homes were purchased as the recovery begins a long recovery process. A clear sign the economy is expanding & not retracting.
In a few states government programs have been created to subsidize lost wages & keep employees off unemployment benefits. Illinois is a great example of this program. Putting Illinois Back To Work is program enacted by the governor Pat Quinn.
Question for you: From your perspective, do you see the economy growing? What signs do you use to see the recovery might be working or isn’t working?

For me as of now, our state is struggling for economic finances. the management did not able to achieve what is expected.
