If you have a grasp of macro economics and want to read a well written, non-jargony, compelling essay about the US economic crisis (and by extension, the world), I would recommend that you give this a dekko: 11th Hour.
IF the article is correct in its facts and conclusions (and I have no reason to believe that it is not), then we are in for a deeply troubled time, and the world economic situation is not going to quite recover by 2010.
