We are not in recovery, nor were we ever.

2. What you never heard of a "jobless recovery"?

On the other hand 95 Percent of Recovery Income Gains Have Gone to the Top 1 Percent, so who knows.

3. There is nuance here that may be overlooked.

"Part of that drop was in response to the economic crisis that started in 2008, and part of the drop comes from demographic factors like the aging of the US population and the retirement of the baby boomers."
We also have to take into account the amount of people who no longer have to work to have health insurance due to the ACA.

5. The grave danger, in the eyes of the politically conservative, is that in an effort to stimulate

the economy, the government will give someone something they do not deserve. You know, the citizen must work to the sweat of their brow or go hungry because wealth is God's way of saying, "You are worthy."

People of color never deserve any assistance. It's right there in the bible and the book of Mormon.

Oh yeah, it's also spending other people's money.

We would rather have a depression.
