    Watching the MSM evening news tonight the anchor made reference to the unemployed numbers going down. The way they report made me laugh when I thought back to when unemployment was going up. Their reporting goes something like this . . .
    Today's unemployment numbers have gone UP from 11.9% to 13.5%. Experts say the number could be higher.
    Today's unemployment numbers have gone from 13.5% to 11.9%, but can we trust the numbers.

    The stock market went up almost 900 points last Friday in case you numb-nuts didn't notice. It's all good times from now until Trump gets sworn in for his second term.

    Of course. When I got my stimulus check I purchased an Apple watch and put the rest in the Stock Market. I love watching that money double.

    The government has pumped in over $3 trillion dollars of borrowed money to keep the stock market high, they can't keep doing that month after month.

    By the end of 2020, Trump will have pumped over $7 trillion borrowed dollars into the
    US economy in just 4 years. Obama only managed to spend $8.9 trillion borrowed dollars in 8 years.

    It's both the dems and the repubs that keep getting us further and further in debt. Smart people don't take sides they blame all the people in the swamp.
