I find this statement amusing, for some reason.
Stop buying imported goods.
Return jobs to America.
Wow, the start of another ‘Bush Resession’!
Stay tuned...
This number will be corrected shortly. Any record of it ever having been reported will then be erased by the Ministry of Truth.
If GDP keeps going down all the time, I would think the last four years of stimulus hasn’t worked. Why does the Fed need more stimulus?
When business owners realized that the Marxist was re-elected by the Takers, the Makers pulled in their chips.

I am guessing that tha MSM and the Administration will find some “plausible reason” that they can circulate to the steeple, and it will be seen as “just a bump in the road.”
Guess they shouldn’t have raised our taxes.
