    That's Warrens way of saying:
    "I know that FWM's large number of positive economic indicators...which are the strongest Bureau of Labor Statistics measuring tools we have...point to a steady US economic growth pattern over the past 7 years"
    "I don't have any real facts to contradict it...but this red beverage prevents my from admitting it".

    Norm,
    Turn off the AM radio...take a chill, check out the price of gas ($1.30 to $1.70 per gal) which is keeping everything pretty cheap, even those unaffordable off-season tomatoes (they'll be even cheaper in a few months). You'll be OK. We're all doing much better with these prices than when gas was $4/gal in 2008.

    My friend...only you have the answer to that question.
    Perhaps when you turn off the AM radio, listen to some soft music...go for a peaceful walk to the store and enjoy all the low prices.

    Yeah and with the price of gas so cheap you can afford to drive out to the country and pick it off the vine unless you want to drive to Mexico!

    In your zeal to say...I'm not sure...what was it you were trying to say? Keep oil what?
    Oil has been going down for quite some time, and the US has produced record amounts of oil the past few years...are you saying that an administration tried to make more domestic oil, making it cheaper so that we would go to green energy?

    I think everyone would agree that our increased production, combined with OPEC increased production over the years, have exceeded our consumption for so long, that its taken up all of our storage. Big Oil and OPEC typically manipulate the price of oil to their benefit (and our detriment) but at some point, the law of supply and demand does catch up with them. The longer they try to artificially manipulate the law of supply and demand (storing oil under every nook and cranny) the stronger the law kicks them in the a$$ets when it catches up with them. That's what we are seeing now with the recent oil bottom of near $25/barrel.

    You're making about as much sense as your strange "price of tomatoes, steaks and jeans going thru the roof" example a few posts down.

    Sometimes...when you have nothing to say...its best to just...have nothing to say.
    Or man up, and admit when you're wrong...because we all are at times...admitting it builds character.

    It was originally meant for mainstream, but since people like you and a few others had nothing substantial to add to the discussion, you ended up going to your "political brainwashed dogma".
    There is a "*"version also (Tom split them in two) so since you RMI, have nothing intellectual to offer here, go to the other one and spew your brainwashed ideological worthless nonsense to your hearts content.

    You might be totally wrong, but you will feel better about yourself.

    But if you want to talk about Bureau of Labor statistics...real ways (not imaginary) of how we measure our economy...then stay here...and try to keep up.

    I found the following article on Zero Hedge. Not exactly the kind of picture I like to see for our country.
