Hard times: An unemployed man in an old coat lays on a pier in the New York City docks during the Great Depression, 1935.
I remember this. I was 10. I hope America does not want to see its citizens like this again.
Those damn businesses. We should tax ‘em more. They aren’t paying their fair share. Those fat cats are sitting on their money and not spending it. We should take their money and create fair trade, green industry government jobs. Government doesn’t have to worry about profit so it is more efficient.
Why are businesses going to spend any money when the incompetent socialist welfare queens agitator is threatening 24/7 to take their profits and the other producers money to give it to the parasites?
Turns out there was an earlier story on the GDP posted here. I searched on GDP, title, and nothing came back. Sorry.
no “unexpected” in the article? lol
And on the news the DJIA is up. [13213.06 +8.44 (0.06%) Apr 27 10:20am ET] Apparently being informed that the economy isn’t growing, inflation is eating away at what already exists, and that lenders aren’t lending is just what the market wanted to hear. Go figure.
Expansion? lol
What is really scary is the fact that for every $1.00 increase in GDP 1st Qtr. we had an increase of $2.52 in national public debt! What does that tell you about this recovery?
The good news in the report is that residential investment increased 19.1%, mostly apartments.
