Wow! Yet another big storm heading to Puerto Rico. Will it ever end? Congress approved 92 Billion Dollars for Puerto Rico last year, an all time record of its kind for “anywhere.”

I have never understood why it is “greed” to want to keep the money you have earned but not greed to want to take somebody else’s money.

There has NEVER been a recession with consumer confidence this high. Present Situation Index is at a 19-year high, and the Expectations Index eased only slightly, moderately less so than the Present Situation rose.

Recession obsession is a delusion.
