You bring great dishonor on both bulls and sh!t. This is the foulest of garbage and it gets fobbed off on the American people every month, every quarter, by changing the arithmetic each time, adding in a “finagle factor” to make the answers come out exactly right for public consumption.
Behind the scenes, they know EXACTLY how bad it is. Not since the depths of the Great Depression have the real numbers been so bad. This stopped being a recession LONG ago, it has been a full-blown depression running on fumes and hype since about 2010.
