Anyone who claims we’re not in a depression is deserving of an officer slot in the Ostrich Brigade.
But I don’t understand.. I was told and told during the two year long election that if Democrats were elected.. We would immediately get a better economy. But now the great leader.. I mean the president is saying that its going to get worse before it gets better..... his vice-leader.. I mean president is saying the same thing... Imagine my shock and surprise.... We are in severe recession.. the bottom has not fallen out yet.. but we are WELL on our way..

I think we have a lot of those officers on Free Republic... :-)
Hey, I heard all last summer and fall that we weren’t in a recession. I was given statistics on what constitutes a recession and I doubted them then.
I don’t doubt now we are in the beginning of a Depression.

I will say this, we are nowhere near the depression my grandmother went through, a 50 year old widow with 5 children, and that my father grew up in. If we don’t return to sound business practices and compendent governmental policies we may get there. Does this make me delusional?
