Did you know that the U.S. has the fastest-growing economy among all of the rich nations?

That's funny. Last week the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (who, admittedly, do not always adhere to such high standards of reportage as the Washington Post) told me that Australia's growth outstripped the U.S.'s.

Not trying to be jingoistic, just trying to say that you can read statistics just about any way you want to.
