If people in this country want the recession to end, they need to start buying. If they want more jobs in the USA then they need to start buying USA made products. You can’t continue to send your dollars out of this country and expect jobs to grow here!Look at the industries we have lost in America.When you purchase goods from China, you support a Communist country. China is actually buying more and more of American companies and the American people are giving them the power to do this.We need laws in this country about how much any one country can import to us.We need a law that states the USA government can only spend taxpayers money on USA made goods.Instead of giving other countries our money the government should purchase USA goods and send those to the other countries.We cannot continue to support companies that end USA jobs and move to China or any other countries so they can avoid paying good wages and increase the profits of the already rich. We need to BUY AMERICAN products to get our country back. WAKE UP AMERICA! PUT AMERICANS BACK TO WORK!

I disagree completely. During recession people from the neighborhood I serve came into the a convenience store with lots and lots of loose change. When the economy started getting better neighborhood residents came in with notes of ten, twenty and fifty.

Now we regularly see a note of $100 even into the night. The very reason why I think the recession issue is over. The trend will indicate that people have confidence on the economy and their earnings are trickling in.

Cutting tax for middle class will seal it up the economy is headed towards recovery is the Common Wisdom we can all share without sykepticism. It is no rocket science to have such an observation.

TO;bob livingston first i want to say thank so much for having this site,it has given people that still believe in the UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION AND BILL OF RIGHTS,a place to state what they think,but like every person,including myself,mistakes are made when we get off the mark,the article at hand,myself i sometimes go to the extreme,but thank you again bob.hopefully the nation can be saved.

I’m sure the results of this poll have nothing to do with the fact that the recession is still going on. After all, Oblama said it was over. I’m sure it is just a misunderstanding by those questioned.

ITS only starting,better start victory gardens in the back yard,dug up your lawns plant foods that will grow on your areas,take out the fancy shrubs in the yard plant fruit trees,and stop spending the little money that means the differance between life and losing your home,when the boys and girls that caused this mess try to sell the lie that everything is getting better,the gardens will tell it all,better than news,then how can they hide the truth,when gardens pop up all over the nation,they will look like liars,to the whole population here and to the world,then let them try to sell the (NEW WORLD ORDER) to anyone,better than bullets and better than protesting,more ways to skin a cat,a little sweat goes a real long way,in november the eletions will tell the story,i am voting tea party ,why? sick of the mess.

WOW, now only 74% think we are in a recession, well that explains just how stupid many are, we passed recession a long time ago that was just before we hit “DEPERSSION.”

But hey what ever floats the media’s boats.

Question…. Concerning those historic “rapid recoveries following severe depressions”…. Do we have any precedent for recoveries in which government spending is approaching 50% of GDP?

As loathe as I am to being the “turd in the punch-bowl”… wasn’t the USSR in a severe depression just before they became a foot-note in the history books?

Lincoln once said,”You can fool some of the people some of the time and all of the people some of the time but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time.” Obama is basically dishonest and follows the practice of saying it loud enough and long enough that people will forget the truth just to stop the argument. How are the job opportunities? Are people gwetting raises or promotions because of expansion? People see these things. These lying Politicians through their professional promoters in the media need to have their wings clipped for being dishonest and should be subjected to the same Judicial rigors that they use to curtail religious freedom. If in fact our country is in the toilet, they are the stuff that floats on top!

Patrick; I agree with you 100% Obama, the ILLEGAL, Anti-American in the Presidents Office, along with the help of Pelosi, Reid, & others are sending the USA down the tubes as fast as they can. The only groups that have benefited are the banks, Unions,& Congress. They all got more money, while everyone else had to bite the bullet.

Wow, do we really believe Obammy boy and his crew of crooked czars? NO!!! What Obammy boy has done was a crime: stolen property. Obammy had his idiots say that there was/is no inflation, then he puts a hold on Social Security cost of living raises for 2 years. Just ask anyone anywhere if gas, food, taxes, insurance, entertainment, clothing, cigarettes, alcohol, or just about any products we buy if the price has stayed the same? NO! everything has increased, How can Obammy get away with these crimes? Of course with the billions saved by no SS increases, he then sends our money to the Unions, Muslims, terrorists, Acorn, Black Panthers, community organizations, communists, Jhadists, etc. Do you not see what is happening in our great country? Since we don’t have a criminal conviction or an impeachment proceeding at this time, we are simply left with the only means of change…. vote them all out of office in NOV. 2010.

That is what you get when a book trained marxist muslim moron macaroon who feeds onstop lies to the citizens. He doesn’t have a clue what reality is. When you look at all of his advisers he surrounds himself with, it doesn’t take a brains surgeon to reach the conclusion this idoit has never had a job, worked as a business owner, or done anything in life. But scam the systems programs all of his life. His marxist communist beleifs go counter grain what has worked for decades in the USA, as he try to employ total government control over everything. Government jobs a joke and there is a lot of srupid citizens that think is growing the economy. A government job costs taxpayers on the average $120,000, in real world the same job citizen makes $50,000. Government job cost taxpayers $100,000, real world job taxpayer gets back $15,000, no taxpayers money spent. The government job cost taxpayers to create the postitions, real word jobs some one putting their money and hope to creat something productive, Governemnt job usually is to impede production in ever phase of producing something. The idea government jobs are cost effective, is B–l s–t, but there is a lot of over educated and well as the bottum feeders that cann’t grasp the facts or understand a few facts.

I live in South Florida. We still have a large amout of foreclosures, people out of work, and students with an 8th grade education. To me if it wasn’t for unemployment, food stamps, food banks and medicaid it would be called a depression.
I am still working and do my best to help out. I donate to almost all the animal organizations. I hire handymen, lawn men, and try to pay them a fair wage for the job. However some of the handy men want me to pay them $50.00 an hour. I do not manke $50.00 an hour and I am a Registered Nurse.

How sad that our government lies all the time! Maybe it will never happen, but wouldn’t it be nice to be able to believe everything they tell us? Also, it would sure be great if common sense attacks would happen to this administration.

Remember in November!

THE RECESSON HAS NOT ENDED JUST MORE LIBERAL LIES SO THEY CAN HOPE TO HOLD ON IN NOVEMBER, DOWN WITH THE LYING LIBERALS.

Most people will tell you that if 75% of the people are convinced about something, they just might know what they’re talking about. In this case, we have a ‘leader’ who thinks he can do everything “his way,” and I have no reason to give him any benefit of the doubt.
Consequently, unless or until I learn otherwise, this, folks, is truly a recession we can believe in. This prez can believe whatever he wants. It’s
probably the only talent he’ll ever have.
