It's an election year, so certain people living Washington and New York are going to call it a "recovery", regardless of the facts. Come to California and try looking for a job, then see if you still think there is a "recovery".

The economy did NOT "improve". It added jobs. But we also added population. So the unemployment numbers remained the exact same. That is not an improvement ... that means we're standing still, just with more people.
Also, the number of "unemployed" is a fraud, artificially lowered because of the huge increase in people filing disability claims to get money when their unemployment checks run out. So the number of unemployed people is far higher than the rate reported by the Commerce Dept. They merely shifted all the unemployed over to Dept. of Health and Human Services.

"Ron Paul for American renewal."
I don't see how nuke and pave will be more constructive.

Sarcasm is the [my] lowest form of persuasion, so my earlier posted "Danny" story isn't too nice :) Yet the idea is golden, because only a return to some degree of currency stability followed by monetary reform will open the way for genuine economic revival. Borrowing more [as Barack Obama does] just leaves worse trouble for tomorrow.
The quantitative easing periods of late were focused to favor encumbency for the coming elections, that's just politics. What matters is when thoughtful voters see the whole picture and opt for fiscal responsibility. Repair of our currency system sooner rather than later will bring the best results and economic confidence needed for sustainable prosperity.
Ron Paul for American renewal.

Worked with a guy named "Danny". Every time Danny got a new credit source, he looked happy and prosperous for a while. A third of the total federal debt borrowed in only the past 3 years seems a mighty fine new credit source for any fella doing the federal budget. "Danny" should be looking good at Least throughout this election year, successful Danny. What a nice big healthy debt Dan has now. Go Danny.
