    my favorite quote relating to all this went something like: 'the media has correctly reported 80 of the last 5 recessions.' basically the media loves to tell us how bad things are now and how the past was always better, but it's never true. you have to remember, they don't get paid to be right, just popular.

    Yeah ianhunn, Haiti is messed up. I lived there for 2 years. If Americans could see what it's like over there, they would appreciate what we have a lot more. Kembe jdam!

    When your neighbor loses his job, it's a recession. When you lose your job, that's a depression.

    Once the Messiah is elected the Media will stop singing the blues and then start praising how well things are going to be under the new leadership... LOL.

    I personally think that quantum physics is actually easier then macroeconomics. With quantum physics, laws still apply... we just don't know all of them yet... With macroeconomics, everything is up in the air with a guess here and a though there and a statistical anomaly all around!

    Great vid! That was the first explanation of the Dow that made sense. Your darn right that macroeconomics is about as simple as quantum physics. I liked the toilet flushing too :-).

    This video should be used on Glenn Beck again (the Global Warming video on his site is what got me started watching you guys anyways!). I don't believe we are in a recession, but we aren't raking in the cash anymore. I am a believer in letting the market sort itself out. This isn't the first 'downturn', but we are America and always come out on top. Just my 2 cents.

    If people want to see a recession they should look at Haiti.

    My 1st answered question!!!!! Yay!! (jayman90 was my old account that I forgot the password to) I've entered so many questions and I thought I was being ignored lol Sadly, this vid didn't really teach me anything I didn't already know...but my 4 min and 20 sec of fame was SO worth it!! Now if only you could do the one I requested on Mormonism...lol

    The toilet flushing was very funny! I totally agree with you about the economy, opinion or not the facts do show that its not quite a recession but just a slow down. So many people just believe were are in one because the media (including Obama) sayes the economy is in recession.

    Nospinplease

    I am surprised I followed all of that too! Easier to follow than that find the error video. Oh yes! The media is VERY reliable! lol just kidding. Nice video yet again!

    No confusion here. I followed all of that! Thanks for the facts. One thing is for sure. Everyone will never be in complete agreement on whether it's a recession or depression. Or whether we are collectively doing well or not, economically.

Sorry, we're getting way too much spam.
