Good analogy!
> I deal with these struggling young people everyday. I am a landlord of $525 a month apartments. Recently I lost a renter due to the government garnishing 75% of his full time wages( one of the few that have a job)so he could not pay his rent.
We tried to work out a payment plan but in the end he did not have enough money for life after the government seized 75% of his paycheck!! He and his wife and child are now on the streets.
And that’s not even high dollar rent. Therein lies the problem. The government forgets all the differnt ways they tax us (sales tax, luxury tax, phone fees, property taxes, income tax, all these damn regulatory fees we pay when we have our oil changed or receive services , and NOW Obamacare). Its like a patient that goes to several different doctors and they all prescribe him medicine and aren’t aware of each other’s meds so the poor guy ends up taking 5 or 6 (or more) pills a day and ends up OD’ing on them when they kill his liver.
No. The government reports both numbers (doesn't mean that they're not fabricated, anyway, but you should know the facts).
Don’t let your fears keep you from buying. Remember that while the national economy sucks, there are places with booming economies (Texas, ND, etc). Make the decision based on your own economic situation.
and the media reports only one of them.
Inflation Below Fed Target for 22nd Month in a Row, The Wall Street Journal, March 28, 2014.
He’s helping the hard working middleclass, how long is it before this chump is out of office and in leg irons? Not to worry if the GOP ever gets in they will prop him up like clinton and save his a## for the record
He wants to expand his business but he can't draw enough customers with money to do it.
People have bald tires, can't afford heat, it gets cold up here, and are having problems feeding themselves.
He is thinking about a different type of business, he employs about 10 people and it is starting to be a burden.
My rate went fromm $347/month to $879/month and the deductible increased by $1300 to $6300 thanks to ocare. But as a 62 y/o man I can now get free prenatal care, pediatric dental, sex change operations and pregnancy benefits. Is this a great country or what?
Wrong. Food and energy have not been included in the CPI since Clinton was in office.
My timing was about perfect as I turned 65 about the same time zero care got up and running.
We do here but “urban” America and Amish country is where it needs to happen.
I do think the Dems just outright stole the last election from gullible, stupid GOPe’s.
The WSJ in an exception with a focus on high information voters. Usually when we say the media we are talking about the whole industry.

Fed focus shifting to stubbornly low US inflation

No, it is not an exception, and two of your (weak) examples mention it, and the second is about consumer spending.
BHO, living proof that you can destroy the American economy if you try hard enough.
He hasn’t sunk it like the Great Depression. Yet. I believe I observe that a frank fiend is kinder to the economy than a false friend is.
Well he’s got 3 more years so hunker down.
Amnesty will solve this. I heard from yet another democrat that all illegal immigrants will become super rich job creaters but just can’t because some reason.
They’ll create super rich nanny jobs
