Are we in a recession or not?

"A declining housing market means many parts of the economy begin to stall. Already the job loss is spreading from housing and construction industry to manufacturing and financial sectors. A housing collapse means housing-related purchases, such as furniture and appliances, will decline. At the same time, banks are tightening credit."
Post your comments. Are we in a recession or not?

I don't believe the economy is in recession right now, rather i believe the economy is in inflation. Prices are rising such as gas, consumer products etc. I hope that the next president will do something about this before it drains a hole in many peoples wallets.
