The economy is improving. The Stock Market is up. Real Estate is rebounding. Unemployment is going down.

The economy is improving. The Stock Market is up. Real Estate is rebounding. Unemployment is going down.

The economy is not improving in most of the country. The Stock Market is up, but it's really just keeping up with inflation, for investors. Real Estate is not rebounding for most of the country. The unemployment rate is going down, but the number of unemployed is going up.

In the spirit of keeping things light-hearted, maybe you two could stick to the joke thread?

You dont seem to comprehend - ppl no longer eligible for unemployment are no longer part of the statistics - but not necessarily working.

AND back ON to the jokes.
