The Main Street - Wall Street Bout, Round Two

@constructe <--- do you have some numbers on consumer loans rising compared to bank-to-bank loan numbers falling? I'd love to use some of this info on a piece I'm writing

The Main Street - Wall Street Bout, Round Two

If we go by the governments own numbers, we're not in a recession, have positive GDP growth, and low inflation. Am I missing something? I mean, this sounds really terrible. Growth, stability. Oh, you mean that they lied about those things. Ah, yes, I'm sure they'll be much more forthcoming when they talk about wanting a trillion dollars with no oversight, immunity from possibly prosecution in the case of misuse of funds, and the person in charge of spending the money having over $400 Million of his personal wealth surprisingly in the last-company-standing in this whole mess. Didn't Paulson just say that everything was fine and that market fundamentals are strong just a few weeks ago?
