Oh, so the economy is bad?Demand for electricity is usually considered a reliable indicator of economic activity.
With the collapse of various major industries in the Carolinas, it should come as no surprise that Duke Energy is suffering.

Well, then.
Nevermind the overwhelming evidence that the economy is roaring back.
Nevermind that the minor recession is long gone.
Nevermind that GDP grew at a rate higher than any quarter in 19 years.
Nevermind that unemployment is falling.
Nevermind that interest rates remain rock bottom.
Nevermind that inflation is still in check.
Nevermind that consumer confidence is increasing.
Nevermind that virtually every economic indicator available shows an ever stronger economy and undeniable growth.
Nevermind.
