You should have said an economy in declined combined with a massive terrorist attack that wreck havoc on almost every sector.

I have no problem with this statement.

It is amazing we are doing as well as we are, by that, still the best economic numbers in the world!

I will agree that it is amazing we are doing as well as we are with so many of the Clinton economic policies held over by the Bush administration but stating our economic numbers are teh best in teh world is far from a factual statement. China is having an 8% growth year. Us economic growth byy the rosiest estimates will be arround 2% without any increases in employment. Some economists put that figure well below that number.

Further when you take out imports from teh picture one may even find negative economic growth but any such projection necessarily involves estimates that are not reliable as the hard statistical data is not provided. In short it can not be easily proven so is subject to question and is an unprovabe assertion on my part.

China is having an 8% growth year.

Move to China then if you think it is better! You guys are so funny, not! China 8% growth is from an economy is pitiful by our standards. According to Tang, 75 per cent of impoverished urban residents are laid-off workers, unemployed people and employees in troubled enterprises. However, an incursion of rural workers into the labor market in the cities have made prospects bleak for those seeking to return to the workforce.

The country has 53 million Internet users with a population of 1.2 billion (the United States has a lot more users). Half the population has never even touch a phone, they have no infrastructure, no cars, no computers, vast majority of Chinese live in adject proverty, 18 percent of their population is illiterate, they have 6 times the population and a tenth, I repeat, a tenth the GDP output of the United States.

Us economic growth byy the rosiest estimates will be arround 2% without any increases in employment. Some economists put that figure well below that number.

Most, not some say growth for the remainder of the year will be over 4%. Several economist predict a growth rate of 6% or over for next year.

Well, I have a problem with that statement: It's WROUGHT, not wreck, that is the past tense of the word wreak. Wreck is what you do with a car, wreak is what you do with havoc. ARRRGH!
