Doesn't all this media emphasis of a slowdown seem irresponsible?

We need to add Blaming the Media to the Kubler-Ross 5 stages of grief.

1. Denial
2. Anger
3. Blaming the Media
4. Bargaining
5. Depression
6. Acceptance

I am sure the perception of how our economy is doing will change in the media just as soon as Obama gets in the White House. The media has lost its credibility as far as I am concerned. I used to believe these people before I got a chance to read more and look at the real situation. The biggest problem in the United States is lawlessness and not the economy. The lawless problem is really causing the economic problem.

How is the lawlessness problem really causing the economic problem?

Of course, it's a nosedive. It has been for quite some time. There is no way to cut taxes, go nation building and have it any other way.

None of this is rocket science, and yet the average Joe is now starting to wonder what's up.
