Not only do the moron voters prevail apparently, but even today Ras has Bama by 1 pt. I just sit and wonder, how can this be? The US is collapsing and the takers are winning the battle. With dunces like Aiken, we may not even get the Senate. For 70 yrs., the NEA, MSM, Dems in general have so dumb-downed America that the non-producers all seem to be sprouting from the womb of dependence just as America needs producers and makers. Very sad for seniors like myself.
Isn’t that the $64,000 question.
Seriously, you can have an economy in this p—s poor shape, and they can’t even call it a recession? Without that designation, the worst economy, job situation, housing situation, unemployment underemployment and workers having given up, in 80 years is considered what? Normal?
I hadn’t considered this point until responding to you, but isn’t this just one more evidence that our government leaders are so out of control, they don’t have a single fricken clue?
There isn’t one chance out of a billion I could ever accept this as normal, or not some designation of a recession or even a depression. If I held office, I would buck the trend and reference in these terms.
I realize there are certain criteria that have to exist for there to be a recession, but it seems to me that this situation calls for some rethinking of what determines one.
If this isn’t a recession, the term is meaningless. Frankly, I think there’s an argument to be made that it goes beyond recession too.
I appreciate you raising the point. It is something that needs to be discussed IMO.
Gerald Celente is not a pathological liar and he uses the word recovery a lot! “There IS NO recovery,” he says quite often. If some of my late aunts and uncles were still among the living they might say, “They ain’t no such of a thang as no recovery goin’ on an’ ain’t agonna be no time soon so you might as well not waste yo’ time alookin’ fer it.” They didn’t exactly use the standard English as taught at Harvard but they danged shore knowed what wuz agoin’ on.
The powers that be know that it is a recession, but they think they can lie their way out of it.
The Democrat bunch who have made all sorts of disparaging remarks about Ryans Budget are the ones who haven’t had a budget in 3 years.They just spend to suit themselves.These same people who are helping the ill by adding a tax to
the cost of a wheelchair.The same bunch who took 716 Billion dollars from Medicare and accuse Ryan of trying to ruin Medicare.
They know we are in recession, but as long as they can keep the checks going out to those who aren’t working, keep the Food Stamps going out,the voters who vote for democrats do not know there is a recession,they believe the lie.
When the Greek style bankruptcy comes in on them they will be wondering what happened.They will say “Things were going so well, we were recovering weren’t we.’ Obama told me we were and Harry Reid, and Nancy Botox, swore to it”.
” Kind of like saying the blown transmission on your car recovered overnight, so let’s go for a ride. “ forgetting that half of the transmission’s parts and case are scattered all over the road a 1/4 mile back.
I agree with your comments. Thanks for the response.
