The Economy Can't Be That Bad if Thousands Can Pay $100 for a Ballgame

Just because you're unemployed doesn't mean you are not spending money. I know a few unemployed people who are buying fancy new cars, motorcycles, boats, clothes, dinners, movies, landscaping, home improvements, etc.

Basically they are spending their severance, savings, and unemployment checks. They have lots of spare time to start new projects (landscaping/home improvements/hobbies). And in my state, unemployment pays a lot more than most available jobs.
