This model focuses on the American Economy and the reasons behind its stagnant recovery. My inspiration for this model came from an article I found in "Time" magazine titled "What U.S. Economic Recovery? Five Destructive Myths", by Rana Foroohar. Foroohar uses a series of five "myths" about the U.S. economy to prove her point that the U.S. economic recovery will very likely not be a quick one. I compiled factors from this article that Foroohar mentioned and included some others I thought were also important. Below is a link to the article.
