I don’t listen to economic forecasts anymore. The “experts” always say the same thing, that this coming month is going to be better, more jobs, more cash flow, yada yada yada. Whatever. It’s like the climate change scientists always saying that the climate is going to get hotter.

Don't worry. All the numbers will look better as soon as Julia and I get a chance to revise them.

I guess that’s why the media is pouring out those “Everything is looking up” stories.

Everything is fine. Do not adjust the horizontal. Do not adjust the vertical.
Relax, and for a time (countdown to Jan 2017), relax and enjoy the diversion into the......................Twilight Zone.

Their goal is to get us to give up on the Capitalist system in general. Seems to be working with the young people.
To: Theoria
Have they restored the import tariffs yet? No
Are imports still increasing? Yes
Are jobs still going overseas? Yes
Why am I not surprised?

Blaming on the port strike on the west coast. Yeah.

“The key reason not to worry too much: The contraction reflected a drop in net exports related to the resolution of a labor dispute at West Coast ports, the firm said.”
I have a real difficult time believing that our whole economy is based on a labor dispute at West Coast ports.
I think this guy is grubering us.

I’m not worried:
Unemployment is way down - just read the reports from the Obama Administration.
The federal deficit is way down - just read the reports from the Obama Administration.
Health care is way better - just read the reports from the Obama Administration.
The world is full of unicorns and Skittles, and everything is perfect except for those bitter racist clingers.
