- You want stimulus? Extension of unemployment benefits and food stamps. How's that for an economic stimulus plan? Can you buy a car with food stamps? Lets think about this. What if grocery stores sold bananas for $25,000 and threw in a free car? Could you use food stamps then?
- And no sales tax on food purchases! "Can I help you load these groceries in YOUR BRAND NEW CAR?!"
- Call it a recession already! Nearly 1.2 million jobs have been lost this year. The unemployment rate is at its highest level since 1994. Retail sales were dismal last month and for automakers, October was the worst month in more than a quarter-century. But guess what? The United States is still not officially in a recession.
- Obama to meet with "economic brain trust." Uh oh, the three most feared words in the English language. To paraphrase Ronald Reagan.
- Hey, Pittsburgh Steelers running back Willie Parker is hurt again. Looks like Mewelde Moore will get the start. I still have Mewelde on the fantasy roster! Yewooowowowowo.
- From RevShark via Intuitive Traders, While I’m sure Obama will be upbeat, it is very likely that during the transition phase of the presidency, he will be working to lower expectations about what he can accomplish. Setting the bar low will go a long way in the future perception of Obama’s success.
- Yeah, that'd make sense. Set the expectations lower and exceed them. Okay, Obama is on...
