All my savings are in my stock account, so I pay very close attention to every economic data report that comes out. The claim that our economy is worse than ever is a complete lie.

Economic Calendar - Bloomberg

Bloomberg, you can view all the past, present, and future economic data reports.

We are MUCH HIGHER than early 2009. I wish people would do their research. Unemployment and Housing are the only things worse than before. Everything else is MUCH HIGHER.

Obama 2012

or

Ron Paul 2012 (but we know Republicans won't nominate him)

If groceries and gas and other things that you spend money on regularly are 30% higher than they were 2 years ago and your stock portfolio has netted a 30% gain that you are FLAT EVEN with where you were two years ago

If your stocks didn't go up that much you are farther behind than you were in 2009.

You have to look at it from the perspective of what your money could buy today vs what it could buy 2 years ago. We have WICKED inflation going on now due to the RAPID expansion of the money supply that Ben Bernanke has been doing at the Federal Reserve (which is not a good thing for us) which drives prices up and makes the purchasing power of the dollar less and less.

If you don't like it, vote for Ron Paul for president in 2012. He is the only one with a plan to stop it,

I do think things are much better for the rich. The rest of us? Not so much.

Yes, jobs and housing, the two most essential items for our survival are down. But rejoice! The stock market is slightly up!
