Re: No Political Arguments Please
said by Matt  :but aside from the financial industry and the car industry (that has always teetered on the brink of failure), the majority of other industries are doing just fine. This is further proof of that. Historically, this recession is no worse than ones we've experienced throughout history. Although it is creeping toward being one of the longest recessionary periods we've had, it's nowhere near being one of the deepest. Yes, since the financial industry not being too important, the fact that is just one that is not doing too well is not of concern. Hey, don't let a heart attack stop you, it is just one organ and all the others are doing fine separately. That leg twitching there looks really healthy and those teeth are blindingly white and shiny scattered all over the floor when we fell due to that small heart attack.
Yes, this recession is not worse than others. Maybe as it gets worse, we will hear is not at bad as the 1929 one, then as we pass that level, hey we are cool, we survived the 1929 one, so it is not that bad...
I still remember idiotic articles wondering in 2008 if we were really in a recession while most people were struggling.
Does disconnection from reality and short sightedness mean anything in your world ?

Heh, if you think it is no big deal that it is in such shambles makes me wonder if you are in a leadership position ? How's that bonus ? Six figures ? Cool, all's well then !

We lost several customers, but gained several more back. As I said, the recession is not as bad as most would have you believe. It is a bad recession, but depression-comparison worthy it is not. | |

Maybe you're the idiot for not understanding that you can't know you are in a recession until you have already been in one for a minimum of 6 months. Maybe those articles aren't so idiotic for wondering something that was IMPOSSIBLE to know at the time. | |

Maybe those articles aren't so idiotic for wondering something that was IMPOSSIBLE to know at the time. I do happen to know what the DEFINITION of a recession is. However, trying to create questions for POLITICAL reasons regarding something that was obvious at the time given the RATE of financial collapse is hilarious.
Are we in a nosedive in this plane ?? Not at all, the definition of nosedive is 75 degrees for 2 minutes and we have been at 73 for only 110 seconds, what kind of idiotic question is that ???
