The US economy grew at a “red-hot” 3.5 percent clip in the third quarter according to the US Commerce Department.The growth was the best boost in two years.The growing economy has been aided by government-supported spending on cars and on homes.
Although the US economy is still fragile with unemployment being at a very high level and the national debt being at record high , the Commerce Department's report on Thursday sent a sharp message that the economy is getting out of its “funk” of being in the worse recession since the Great Depression
The increase reversed the direction of four straight quarters of shrinking economic activity not seen since 1947
The economist expected a 3.3 percent growth rate.
Consumer spending went through the roof.Big-ticket manufactured goods climbed at an annualized rate of 22.3 percent in the third quarter.Economist are suggesting that the jump is due Cash for Clunkers program and that the housing market growth due to housing purchase incentives of $8000 tax credit for first-time home buyers and unfrozen markets.Spending on housing projects jumped at an annualized pace of 23.4 percent
The positive GDP report is another sign that the economy is pulling out of the deep recession that started in December 2007.
Yeah that 3.5% IS FRICKEN GREAT!!!!! I went to taco bell to buy a burrito only to find out the price of them had risen 10% and the amount of food in them dropped 14%!!!! WE ARE DOING (AS KJ MIGHT SAY) FUGHIN GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Written by

It is comforting to know we can spend $500,000.00 per soldier to be deployed overseas... I know of several mercenaries that can be had for 60K... And if you go shopping, you can even get them for $5,000.00... Just a little more than the cost of an M-16 with a grenade launcher attachment......

Consumption does not pull the economy, consumption burns money…… And when you have no more money to throw on the bonfire, guess what? You don’t get to have a BBQ… Sort of like those clueless gals, you start off with a brief flicker of cogneti ve reasoning and then, well, the train done left the station and you are still standing on the platform with your ticket in hand….. For example, you go on to say…. . - - - what's happened is that with this country going well into the post-industrial phase ……………….- - - - NO FOLLOW THROUGH THERE STT………………….. You were about to hit the nail on the head and then whoops!!!! You took your eye off the mark and banged your thumb!!!! It has nothing to do with rich folks getting richer, what it has to do with is middle class folks, wanting to get the lowest price, bought foreign goods instead of homegrown goods, and guess what, they were cutting their hands off to satisfy their pocket books.. Manufacturing shifted overseas, and then our politicians and foreign policy makers started favoritising flavor flav style other countries as the premier foreign trade partner status…. Jobs disappeared, folks couldn’t afford homes, had to rent, moving didn’t help because wherever they moved to, they took the jobs that locals could fill and on and on and on it went…. We need rich people in America so that those rich people can create industry and jobs.. We have insurance hobbling us, DEQ, EPA, DOT, HUD, Dept of Agriculture, the State Department, and on and on and on…. We got rid of the jobs!!!!!!!! We got rid of the industry!!!! We quit manufacturing!!!! Everyone thought they were going to sit in front of a computer, punch some buttons and earn 100K a year!!! Surprise – Surprise – Surprise!!!!!!! And some folks figured they would sit at a desk so people could look at them while they make 300K a year, you know, like the CNN groupie gals…… It is crazy……… Want to know something even crazier? The dumbing down of America has been going on for over 3 decades now….. Right now, across the nation anywhere from 100,000 to 200,000 books in our public libraries are being removed and for all practical matters, burned on a daily basis….. Day in, Day out.. Unbelievable… But then of course I suppose if you are in the teaching class, and you don’t want nothing taught or give anyone the opportunity to discover anything but your view points this makes perfect sense… I think the 3rd Reich had that tactic down pat…. Just yesterday I watched a hardback edition of Gray’s Anatomy get discarded… Mint condition… Probably a 2 or 300 dollar book.. Oh no, we wouldn’t want the common person to be able to reference anything like that, they might get too smart….. This is happening in just about every library in America… This is insanity… We not only dismantle our industry, but we throw away the books that showed us what we had and how to do it….. You all are screwed… Enjoy your new reality, you worked hard for it, you deserve it……………………… Your insipid attitudes are quite trying…..

The private sector has to pay for government. The cost of government can be expressed as a percentage of the private sector economy. How can the private sector expand when it has a downward trend while paying for ever-expanding government? Instead of government "tightening its belt" as those in the private sector must do it instead resorts to inflation (expands the money supply). This is supposedly done to "increase liquidity" but it also allows government to fund any and all programs without having to resort to being responsible and cut unnecessary waste. This devalues ALL of the people's money: payroll, savings, etc. and hits hardest those on fixed incomes. Thinking of "wasteful spending" in this way (devaluing the people's money) what federal outlays are so sacrosanct that they cannot be cut? Would this include subsidies for businesses that cause prices to be artificially high (straining consumer's wallets even more)? Money sent overseas in direct payments or loans? Money spent on overseas troop deployments and military action? The private sector can handle a short-term deflationary period, it is government that cannot; and so they resort to inflation to fund themselves at the people's expense. Deficit spending is not only done to provide Keynesian liquidity for the benefit of the private sector economy, it is also a means to allow government to grow unchecked by any responsible restraint by eliminating unnecessary expendatures.

Consumers are clearly still very uneasy and everyone needs to understand well that consumption by the broad mass of middle class consumers is what pulls the economy. Without that, businesses will not be spurred to invest in property, plant and equipment and in people. Without that there will be low or no economic growth. The basic problem is that over the past two or three decades or so what's happened is that with this country going well into the post-industrial phase the working class is seeing more and more of a squeeze on their pocketbooks as their earnings have stagnated. Phenomena such as the dot-com bubble and the real estate bubble helped to mask that effect but those have run their course. To truly get the economy healed we've got to find some way to ease the strain on the working classes and also let them get to receive their "piece of the pie" of economic growth that they have not been receiving as data unquestionably indicate that such benefits of what economic growth that there has been have gone disproportionately over the past few decades to the few at the top of the income pyramid. What's troublesome is how economic reactionary conservatives would want to do just the opposite, i.e. increase the strain on the pocketbooks of the working classes, an action that would probably plunge the country into long-term economic depression.

It seems as though both George W. Bush and Barak H. Obama share the belief that money should be taken from the middle and lower class to be given to Wall Street barons - under the guise of "necessary" bailouts of institutions "too big to fail" - so these tycoons can keep their enterprises afloat and maintain their extravagant lifestyles. In that regard Barak Obama is certainly not a "socialist" as he is moving earnings from the lower classes to the upper class. Just another lackey for big banking and the multinational corporate interests I guess. I don't know much about Hoover (did he invent the vacuum?) or conservatism vs. liberalism, but I would like to see this country 1) bring all the troops home, 2) stop spending the taxpayer's earnings on foreign governments and banks, 3) stop giving the taxpayers' earnings to businesses by either direct payment or subsidies, 4) legalize drugs as the "war on Drugs" is an abject failure and is responsible for the majority of homicides (but I guess "some people" are making a profit on it, and of course kickback some of this profit to politicians), 5) legalize same-sex marriage - generally, what I'd like to see is government be as small as possible, quit propping up those who are already wealthy and basically get the f^&* off our backs. I don't know if that earns me the label of "liberal" or "conservative" - but these labels are meaningless anyway. There are two types of people politically that I see: individuals who form opinions on each separate issue and those who follow the (either) party line. As far as "investor/owner class" - wtf is that comment referring to? "Tycoons" or "Joe and Jane Doe" who choose to own a home instead of renting? People who invest their earnings for retirement instead of pissing it away on gambling or drugs? Just what are you referring to by investor/owner class?

True, there won't be a real recovery until the benefits of whatever growth that there is accrue to everyone who's been working hard and not so disproportionately to the few and the barons of Wall Street et al., as has been the case for the past couple of decades, but unemployment and job creation and the economic security and well-being of the working classes are and have long been the least of conservatives' concerns as long as business profits remain strong for the owner/investor class.

I think the Democrats will lose 20 to 40 seats in the House, and probably keep their majority. I don't gamble, no visits to the "casina" for me. I do think disgust with both parties may work to the Democrats advantage the same way Nader's candidacy worked to the Republicans advantage in 2000. Stocks have rebounded somewhat; however with the dollar losing its value vis-à-vis foreign currencies, many foreign investors are finding our stocks c bargain. With a 14% devaluation vs. several foreign currencies, this means a stock that was worth $1000 before the crash (and deficit spending) that now is "back to" $1000 ("face value") is actually only worth $860. Pensions and savings have also been devalued similarly. Written by kpf ... but, keep that sunny outlook

KJ, KJ, KJ, I see a glass with filled halfway as either "half full" or "half empty" - as they are one and the same thing. What is significant is why we have "good" economic indicators. Many companies are showing increased profits, not because of a rise in sales but rather due to layoffs. That is not "sustainable" - it is a temporary uptick. Likewise although we ARE seeing "economic growth" due to the "cash for clunkers" and the $8K credit for first time homebuyers, these too are temporary gimmicks that looks good for a short term, but do not actually create more jobs long term and in fact have negative long term consequences (added debt, added annual interest payments on the debt, devaluation of the dollar) - again, not a true sustainable uptick in the economy. Good economic news will be when the government does not have to resort to such inflationary means to prop up the economy, when the Fed can raise interest rates and when unemployment drops down below 7 or 8 percent. None of this is anywhere in sight. Even with a record setting 1.4 trillion dollar deficit we have an unemployment rate that is the highest in 26 years, neither of these economic indicators are anything to be "happy" about. Not "doom and gloom" - just (or so one would think) obvious facts. Written by kpf

Kp, I understand the money printing pyramid problem…. But we have no choice… And the facts of the matters are that higher taxes in lieu of increased production and export is the reality not considering the already tremendous amount of hard dollar currency that is currently sitting in foreign coffers… But instead of throwing good money after bad, perhaps we can throw bad money after good….. Yes, we do need to print more money here in the United States, but its circulation must be constricted…. Without cash circulation it is the poor, and the middle class that suffer….. And yes taxes need to be raised, that way this ‘excess’ paper that is floating in the domestic sector can be hauled in and shredded at some point in time… preferably on a percentage basis with regards to short term and long term schedules…. Preemptive health care starts with a preemptive strike or plan… I remember when Snickers finally won the argument that it was a “Snack Food” instead of a candy bar so that folks with food stamps could buy them….. O.K. reel that stupid type of scenario in…. And I hate to say it, but I don’t give a sh^t because a pack of smokes is costing me almost 5 bucks now (I only smoke my preferred brand, and if it gives me cancer or whatever, oh well, that’s my business, and a 6 pak costs me almost 7 bucks, again I only drink my preferred brand and I like to get a beer buzz to break the boredom of the day to day bullsh^t all the conscientious rooty pooties that aren’t really doing anything except screwing things up can kiss my arse if they think I am going to give up beer) and the point I am making is this; A lot of it has to do with taxes… The dollars need to be available for small business entities to utilize, and what is to be taxed should be products that originate in foreign countries… Specifically to start off in the foot ware/textiles section, pots and pans, electric kitchen appliances, video games/electronics, heavy equipment and machinery, rebuilt/refurbished automobile parts, aircraft parts, steel, ……. And produce from foreign countries… These taxes can be calculated on a state by state basis, segregated from the receipts and forwarded to the U.S. Treasury… In other words, empower American consumers to empower theirselves….. You want to buy yen, euros, rupees, yuan, go ahead, and pay a tax on it while you are doing it……. This does not violate interstate commerce laws, this does not violate NAFTA treaties because each state has the sovereign right to levy its own tax base and milage. When the printed money has been collected and shredded it should have had a multi-level effect on domestic production, unemployment, and with continued use of this method, health care problems and social security problems can be self fixing as a result of empowering the American consumer, and American concerns….

May I respectively disagree. If the economy is growing due to sales that is artificially created due to government's inflationary dollar devaluing unsustainable schemes .... well .. you get my drift.
