So, We Weren't In A Recession...Can We Now Stop The Fear And Loathing???


See the photo? These are people - - Americans - - engaging in "economic activity" (buying and selling stuff in a mall). And yes, this kind of "economic activity" has been happening, even this year....and yes, the economy did grow between January and March of this year. Only 0.6%...and that's an economic slowdown, for sure...but it's still growth, not decline.
So can we accept this fact, and move forward? Apparently not. "Experts" still see doom and gloom. And according to polling data, Americans are increasingly believing that the road to prosperity is paved with tax increases.
More on this tommorrow morning.
And by the way, thanks to Jackie in Arlington for the very flattering call tonight on my program @ 630 WMAL (glad my website photos met with your "approval" - - and yes my wife did hear your remarks about her being a "lucky woman"), and to Ray in Gaithersburg for your very honest, very candid comments about the values of Black America, versus the "values" of Barack Obama.
