It boggles me that it's not countered with the real data more effectively. I know Obama has made the point repeatedly, but the media buzz seems to follow the out of control deficit meme.

they are Losing. Of course, that means the media as well, but I get the sense it's running out of steam just when states and individuals are reporting in with success stories. I think there's a website for stories somewhere. My sister is definitely one of them...the first day...she was ready to go. Less than half what she was paying with lower deductibles.

Nobody pronounces the n anyway!

But it's also why the economy continues to be a disaster for the 99%.

Now back to work at the job I don't have because the recovering economy is such a disaster, Manny.

Or would you call it an "economic development plan" or some such euphonious claptrap rather than austerity?

because they hate the President... because he's black.

However, in the real world, the actual economy is recovering. Just ask the half dozen or so IT headhunters who call me every week with good job offers. That hasn't happened since 1997.

My Mom keeps telling me the economy sucks as well, the problem is Faux Newz is lying to her about it.

And you're right: anecdotal evidence is way more important than "statistics" and "facts".

People are getting it and speaking out! AWESOME!
