Boy, that sucks!
[Why does a good economy not feel that way?]
The MSM needs to realize that they are misleading the nation.
The MSM should have a long look in the mirror.
Because the Liberal MSM won't report the good news? Imagine that.
Maybe because that "a good economy" completely contradicts what we read everyday in the papers? Could that have something to do with it?
Maybe it just doesn't feel good for the Journalism sector... given the drop in newspaper last two quarter...
Well, it may be "unpopular" but it's gotta be done sometime in the course of human history...
...unless the Liberals, Democrats & Peace/Environmental activists actually wanna have a US-Islam war right her in the continental United States and/or be governed by Ayatollah & mullahs..
The intelligent ones are.
I think the answer is deeper than just the MSM midleading the public - which they are, certainly, but a lot of us are now savvy to being mislead, and that should take the sting out of the propoganda. Here's what I see: a lot of my colleagues are middle-aged people between 30 and 60. These are the prime earning years for most of us. Some of us spent time being broke or in poverty, and we save and spend our money wisely. We don't max out the credit cards and go deep into debt. On the other hand, I know people who are just buying things left and right and running their debt right up to their limit to pay off the bills - in other words, they're choosing to create their own financial problems. I know people earning $60,000 annually who have four times that in debt with homes, boats, trucks, new cars, and cards filled to the limit. No wonder that person feels like "it's not a good economy." That poor slob gets fired, or the price of gas moves up just a little, and they've got no room to adapt. Personal choice plays a role in all this. Just my two cents.
Because when you take a poll outside a Neil Young concert those ar ethe numbers you are going to get. Perhaps they should try polling outside of a Nascar event I bet they would get more realist numbers
It's like Rush says - history starts for most people the day they were born.
I was laughing when they talked about "rising interest rates". Most kids voting today don't remember gas lines and house mortgage rates of 18%.
My liberal sister is 10 years younger than me, and thinks Carter was wonderful. She doesn't remember these things. I do.
