I have a bridge in Brooklyn that I would like to sell to you...
That sounds really nice.
If you don’t factor in national debt, Obamacare, and the Fed printing paper money by the trillions, happy days are here again.

I have sales reps visit my office and they all say the same thing: “things are even slower lately. How’s your business?” Freight reps tell me “companies just aren’t shipping much freight these days”. I always tell them it’s because the economy is in the toilet, and has been since Obama took office. People are surprised about how slow things are because they were told there was a recovery when there isn’t.
