In spite of current woes, most say no.

All governments face economic difficulties, although few have claimed credit so much for the good times while blaming the rest of the world for its current woes.

That puts our current woes in perspective.

The principal cause of encouragement was a rare movement in the right direction on both the two great sources of our current woes - financial instability and oil prices.

Apologies that this cannot ease your current woes, but it will help to make next year's return more straightforward and less prone to postponement.
