Consensus Economist Estimates Don't Suggest a Recession

What Bar do those Economists drink in ? Every state is having a drop in employment, housing forclosures are at an all time high, Gov. spending has placed us so far in debt that paying it off is impossible to imagine and even most peoples credit cards are maxed out and those Card Companies are worried sick, ..but these brilliant Economists think that thngs are's so bad , huh ?
I can't imagine that any one of those Economists are going to replace Bernanke,...but who knows, maybe Bernanke drank at the same bar ! Also, am wondering when they got out of "Rehab" ? LC

Things Appear So Evident in Retrospect

Andy,..Where the hell have you been for the past 5-6 years, on a vacation or just unconscious ?
I am not a CFP or anything but a college grad. who reads the paper and sell Real Estate and I saw this coming at least 5 years ago , people buying homes with mortgage applications that have NO DOCUMENTED INFO, and Big Banks taking these loans,..Husing prices way over valued,..It was insanity ! Add the Gov. spending on wars, by the trillions of dollars , and importing so much from China, and every third world country, and exporting nothing, every item in WalMart from overseas, and,.....You didn't see this coming ???
You have lost all credability !!! LC
