Anyone calculate the “misery index” lately? I'm sure it's still in the single digits and nowhere near where it was during the Carter years. Obama is just painting this as bleak as he can in order to make us accept his draconian “solutions”.
Well, I went to get gas Friday morning at one of those "Car Wash emporium type places. They have car washes ($12-$25 range), Starbucks, gas, convenience store, etc. It was 8:30 am and not only were the gas stalls and the coffee sales packed but ALL the car wash stalls had at least two cars in them. Mind you, this is 8:30am on a work day.
Then yesterday, I waited in a line 50 deep at Kohl's department store.
We haven't touched on misery yet.
