The recession is here. Our economy is in the shitter and will stay there for quite sometime. The government figures get a bit of the curve if you ask me. All I know is that everything is more expensive and people can't afford to buy it. The avg family requires both spouses to work just to stay above the poverty line.
I am not wrong on this. Having never met you I would say you have a college degree, probably post grad too. you invest heavy and smartly.
You are a strong supporter of Bush and will vote McCain this yr.
I do this stuff for a living, so I usually try to keep my mouth shut on these topics because people get invested in their own ideas (me included). But when I see good Rangers draw bad conclusions from data sometimes I can't stop myself.
We are not on the verge of economic collapse. Things have been waaaaaay worse in the past, its just that Americans have had it so good for so long we got forgot what bad really is. Lets hope we don't relearn it.
One thing you got right, I'll vote for McCain. National Security, Supreme Court judges and economic policy are my primary filters, and I lean right on these issues.
