Nice try, but these days it’s not like nobody shops until the day after thanksgiving.

I didn't say that. It's not like EVERYBODY begins their holiday shopping before Thanksgiving, either.

After 8 years of Obamanomics and 1.8% growth, our economy should be growing at 7 to 10% to actually recover. What's holding us back?

4. -- which really should be #1 because it has a bigger impact than #1 through #3 combined ... A demographic disaster with retiring Baby Boomers removing more and more people from the productive population.

“Fantastic news for Christmas shopping!”

online shopping this year is so robust that the package delivery services are so overwhelmed that NO ONE, ranging from amazon and the rest of the online retailers to the delivery services themselves, is now guaranteeing that stuff will arrive by Christmas.

looks like a result of economic optimism being through the roof ...
