  1. I suppose America gets their recovery after the next republican administration cuts off the funding.

      So they still haven't had a recovery? I tend to concur.

      I don't believe any future increase to GDP growth will last more than a few months. As for measuring economic growth, it's always a sham game, since unemployment and jobs numbers can be fudged, at least in the short term, as noted here:

      Since when the military ever requested a financial bailout?

  3. I don't know what 'Americans need,' but they don't need the latest Frank Luntz slogan to divert attention from taxing the rich!

    Thanks for the kind words kimmy! On an unrelated topic, I notice you're into boxing...I boxed a little when I was young, mainly because my older brother wanted a practice target when he wasn't at the gym. I still practice on a heavy bag in my basement, but the fill has pretty much settled at the bottom...good for a workout nevertheless.

  5. Fascism should rightly be called Corporatism, as it is the merger of corporate and government power.
