I was actually surprised to see you last this long. Once I nailed you to wall by hammering you on your bogus "middle class is shrinking" claim, I knew that eventually you'd find a convenient excuse to justify fleeing from me in terror and shame.
Only in your dreams, Southack. Your key statistic has been proven counter to your position. Net purchasing power, the only statistic that really matters, went down last year. And that does not even reflect the millions of unemployed.
Can I cite hard statistics for something that is currently happening? Of course not - the Census Bureau only has data up to 2001. However, anyone but the most jaded, asinine political spinner can see that net purchasing power has dropped, in the private sector it dropped even further, in IT, once touted as the future of this economy, it dropped by nearly seven percent, and the unemployment rate is 6.2 percent, with many more people having just given up on finding work and not even factored into that. So let freepers decide - who is making more sense here? You or me?
