Deception everywhere. Just voted and the parking lot filled with people handing out “Sample Ballots - here, it’s critical you take this with you into the voting booth” and it’s a Democratic Ticket/ballot and everyone took one as they looked like county officials handing out helpful information…grrr
I'm still troubled by the number of Americans who want full-time jobs but have to take multiple part-time jobs to make ends meet. I don't think that gets enough coverage. The BLS likes to bury this detail. I am also concerned at the number of foreigners who take jobs over Americans.
What's your take on the GDP data that came out? 2.8% growth seems rosy to me. I suspect it's largely because of government spending. I'd like to dig into whether non-government growth contributed to the growth or not.

Haven't looked at the numbers yet, but I will be shortly.
Peter, your witty personality that exudes through your smart writing makes me smile every time. You’re a delight
Actually, I'm saying that to get to the underlying reality you have to look at the underlying data.
But the REPORTING does not reflect the underlying reality. That also I am very much saying.
How big is the gift card? I'm willing to be one of the usual suspects if the gift card is large enough! :D
