Economy UP

“You'll know when a real recession hits when more traffic is going south than north accross the southern border. Now that's is standing in some really high cotton and wipin' with the top leaf.hehe”

“Bernanke was once on that NBER panel. Just another rung on the ladder to fascist perfection. Not even the Swedes have an NBER.”

“John McCain phoned me yesterday, and told me all was well, no recession!”

“the economy is fine. the fed just needs to admit they can't control it and stop trying to play safety net. they have no idea what they are doing.”

“

"The economy is fine. There is no reason to worry. You will be receiving your free, borrowed money in short order. Please go about your business of consuming and grazing."”

“As usual Vile's (you blithering self demented New Castrati) is WRONG....

A significant decline in activity spread across the economy, lasting longer than a few months. It is visible in industrial production, employment, real income and wholesale-retail trade. The technical indicator of a recession is two consecutive quarters of negative economic growth as measured by a country's gross domestic product (GDP).
Recession is a normal (albeit unpleasant) part of the business cycle. A recession generally lasts from six to 18 months.

Interest rates usually fall in recessionary times to stimulate the economy by offering cheap rates at which to borrow money.

Huh? What does that mean? 'Splain please.”

“So, one basis point(%) of growth for two quartes determines the cover story on 'New Administration' magazine? Let's spend a few more days on this thing, yahthink?”

“-233.73”

“Hey XL -

The Business Cycle Dating Committee is the recognized authority. I have an degree in economics and currently hold a senior position at a Fortune 100 company. The courts have qualified me as an expert witness hundreds of times.

Go google up whatever you want to try to support your originally mistaken contention all you want - it won't change reality. Its OK to admit mistakes.”

“Tell you what... I won't try to teach you about blowing donkeys and you don't try teach me about economics.”

“V shoots. He scores!”

“Ahem..WHOOPTIE FREAKING DOO...when the HELL would an economist be needed as an Expert Witness (and how the HELL could you do it under Daubert?)(Since Economics is like Psychology and more or less opinion based there is NO real way you can develop a Scientific basis under Daubert(..but then you KNOW that (LOL)

I don't care if your dating service says your are right or if you work as a Mexican laborer in some Fortune 100 company....(not that I really believe you) regardless you are still a negative, spineless New Castrati, you are so stuck on the fact that your bunch couldn't steal the election in 2000 you will do anything to destroy the country to "teach us a lesson"

I refused to participate in the last three liberal cooked up Recessions, as a result I made MORE money, I refuse to believe in the negaitve of the ability of the average American to rise above ANYTHING.

If Brains were gunpowder you couldn't blow your freaking NOSE. So, Senior, get back to weed eating the flower bed...”

“Stop digging XL.”

“XL, you get that fire out? hehehehe”

“Because Violink knows about blowing donkeys.”

“bacpac we have no absolute proof of it.....since the Donkey refused to comment we let it go...(LOL)”

“Keep digging.”

“I know its horrible out there...just last week I decided that rather than just evicting the people in my apartments. I will spend evenings driving around to get them the best options in shelter. I have found that Best Buy has the best cardboard boxes.”

“A man was walking down the street when he was accosted
by a particularly dirty and shabby-looking homeless
man who asked him for a couple of dollars for dinner.
The man took out his wallet, extracted ten dollars and
asked, "If I give you this money, will you buy some
beer with it instead?"

"No, I had to stop drinking years ago," the homeless
man replied.

"Will you use it to gamble instead of buying food?"
the man asked.

"No, I don't gamble," the homeless man
said. "I need everything I can get just to stay
alive."

"Will you spend the on greens fees at a golf course
instead of food?" the man asked.

"Are you NUTS!" replied the homeless man.
"I haven't played golf in 20 years!"

"Will you spend the money on a woman in the red light
district instead of food?" the man asked.

"What disease would I get for ten lousy bucks?" exclaimed
the homeless man.

"Well," said the man, "I'm not going to give you the
money. Instead, I'm going to take you home for a
terrific dinner cooked by my wife."

The homeless man was astounded. "Won't your wife be
furious with you for doing that? I know I'm dirty,
and I probably smell pretty disgusting."

The man replied, "That's okay, I just want her to see
what a man looks like who's given up beer, gambling,
golf, and sex.”

“The wane in construccion will leave plenty of illigrant flop houses up for cheaper rent. I see ICE isn't stopping south bound traffic and north bound is way down- the same success we're seeing in Iraq.....ah?”

“minish...in reference to Sale I am guessing...extensive MJ use? probably some ETOH issues....

You ever have one of your urban outdoorsmen get loaded into a Dumpster Truck? (LOL)”

“You're not going to believe this but I had an Uncle that was drunk in an alley and was ran over by a dumpster truck.”

“Wrong on all counts, just have a keen sense of smell that brings my attention to BS with near Zero parts per billion.”

“Yeah sale...you get those fantasys on that stuff.

minish we had this urban outdoorsman crawl into a dumpster one night and doze off. He woke up as he was being dumped into the truck....(LOL)”

“So you two roll around in the dumpster together, Please send picture.”

“Naaaah. Things are looking up!!!

“It's just the MSM silly libby BS. They're ain't no problem folks if you're a CEO we'll get you more the more you lose.”

“Wouldn't it be nice to be able to lower cap gains rates back down to 15% from the 20% that was raised to slow the enconomy and moderate the raise in fed funds and discount rates? Maybe , real estate wouldn't be foundering on the Rocks at Point Dumb Decision.

Sorry I've got to go unplug the trickle down pump it's clogged again.

“Yaaaaawn.”

“I hope everyone is surviving all of this republican prosperity that the decider is showering us with.”

“Unless they do something to address the fact that trickle down hasn't worked then the effects of the Bush recession could be very long-lasting.

There's no sustainable growth unless you make the average American wealthier. You can give money at the top, but the CEOs of America spend at least half their time trying to see how they can lower wage costs so they get bigger bonuses.

They want the consumer to have more money to spend, but want to get people to do the work of their company for less money.”

“Unless they do something to address the fact that trickle down hasn't worked

It hasn't? LOL!!!”

“Trickled down below the border, yes, otherwise it is much less effective at distributing wealth than those at the top would like the rest to believe. The theory that the rich know better than the gov how to distribute money depends greatly on what kind of rich and what kind of gov.. In our situation neither is worth the CO2 they exhale and should never have the chance to try this difficult task again. This single superpower status is melting like the polar ice and will soon need serious consideration, but not by the bunch guiding this Bully through the dark.”

“Trickle Down Economics hasn't worked any better than Piss Into The Wind Foreign Policy.”

“The idiots are the ones who get screwed over by this system, and yet don't even realize it's happening.
Even worse are the cheerleaders - they don't get a piece of the pie but they are so easily bought off because they can buy a few material goods on credit.”

“y2 hates America and isn't an American. Just like the taliban.”

“Wave your poms poms for the crowd Sargie.

Wakes up every morning with a sore ass and no idea why.”

“Ha ha, the more he gets it the more he wants it.”

“He like many, doesn't hate america, but hates a few very aggressive americans that want to take over the world and run it with the blood and treasure of the american people. You wouldn't be one them would you Sargey?”

“I'm afraid so, Sale.

It's the same as those clowns who forty years ago were saying, "don't knock it, it's the only war we've got".”

“So, baby boomers are down sizing their houses in this little reevaluation period , which is putting more white elephants out there on the market. Twenty years before a turn around this time? Will the IRS be big enough to yank the subsidy to home mortgages? Will building codes be altered to allow many huge single family homes be split as town houses?”

“Let's see, on one hand we have a failed businessman (and let's face it, president) telling us, "Sure, the economy's a little slow but don't worry."

On the other hand, the head of the National Bureau of Economic Research saying we are IN a recession and one that is severe.

Hmmm, who to believe. The guys with the PhDs in economics or the drunken fratboy who put the country in the crapper. Hmmm...

“When you say the country is in the crapper are you literally or figuratively wringing your hands?”
