What's Wrong With This Chart?
Presented with little comment...
via Bloomberg's Consumer Comfort Survey
As Bloomberg reports...
Compare This:
The fewest Americans in almost a year say the economy is getting better as faster wage gains remain a missing element in the expansion.
“Confidence still is subpar, marked by deep and persistent concerns about the national economy overall,” said Gary Langer, president of Langer Research Associates LLC in New York, which produces the data for Bloomberg. “Stagnant incomes and lingering weakness in the job market are real challenges.”
To this:
A pickup in hiring this year is brightening spirits for the jobless. Today’s comfort index showed sentiment among unemployed Americans increased to 34.3 last week, the highest since the end of 2007, from 31.5.

It seems it's good to be a rich asset-owner in America... and to be an unemployed welfare recipient... Mission Accomplished Fed/Obama

Consumer Comfort for the Unemployed???? WTF...thats like saying Consumer Top TV Shows for the Blind.
Yeah the current middle class has 2 choices....Join in on these rigged markets to become the 1% or do nothing, live your normal life and regress to join the 99%.
Famous American Benyamin Franklin is once say, "Poverty is should be uncomfortable so as poor citizenry is not want to be poor".
... or maybe is Yogi Bera?
or may is be Russian Bera?

Nice to see you Boris ;-)
Boris probably just came back from a covert op in Ukraine. He can probably tell us what really is going on over there....the truth I mean.
Everyone knows the Russians have invaded the Ukraine in an act of aggression. After all, they wouldn't say on the news if it were not true...
Nyet!
Is Russian invited to visit Ukraine to boost lagging economy !

They don't need a vote to audit the Fed. Any committee has the right to issue subpeonas and conduct investigations as part of their oversight role "BEFORE" making law. The House or the Senate can do this audit as an investigation now.
And pretty soon we will only have unemployed welfare "recipients" and rich asset owners. The circle back to feudalism is almost complete. It's so close the NWO can taste it.
Gotta keep the free shit army well-supplied! Midterm elections coming up, and Diebold can't do all the work.
Diebold or die trying. New Amerika mantra for liberty.
Sounding like new Boris Willis filming.
How does one say Yippie Ki Yay Motherfucker in Russian?
Wait till the dollar dies, the FSA here will morph into ISIS and tear this place down.
pods
I think the real ISIS is in much better physical shape than the FSA ISIS.
Last time I checked I could outrun a little rascal....and that model had overdrive.
I'll be the one dangling my fishing pole from the roof with a twinkie or hotpocket on the hook.
What's wrong? In a society where collecting SNAP and section 8 housing (to keep up the appearance that JPM and other corporates are solvent) is considered a full time job...
nothing.
Looks to me like the MIC wants their pound of "taxpayer" flesh now too...
and JPM has the mortgage on that Section 8 housing.....they keep making money even as they lose customers..
That is a very accurate take on the current conditions except for the fools that are still working.
As long as you don't have to work for a living and pay taxes, things are great!
Michelle Obama says it's hard.
She sure as hell isn't talking about POTUS when whe said that.
That's Reggie's job!
What difference does it make.....
and I would have been able to get away with it, if it wasn't for you meddling teenagers!
i believe it. working people are the ones hurting. the free shit army is doing great.
Government.subsidized.demand.for.food.phones.and.gasoline.
maybe my son's tshirt slogan was right after all..."jobs are for suckers"
My, but the acts of desperation are clearly getting more noticeable by those that run it with each passing day!
I wonder how many SNAP cards I can get....
Yea, like Jesus was allergic to fish.
Time to move to Ireland ???
http://abcnews.go.com/Business/wireStory/irish-economy-bounces-back-strongly-77-pct-25589955
Time for Ireland to secede.
Fucking bullshit, maybe in Dublin only. The rest of the country is in the shitter!
Obviously the pollsters aren't asking the right questions....
Boris-
Is good to be seen by you. Missed you we did comrade.
I've seen variations of this movie before, of which none ended well.
This will end well
as in
a deep hole in the ground
with water in the bottom ..
You have to remember - these are Americans we're talking about here. The same people who can hold the idea that they are "free" in their minds at the same time that they hold all kinds of anti-free ideals.
Freedom. Just another word for nothing to lose.
You butchered Janice Joplin's line.
I have a better saying, from Axel Rose...
Remember what you see, You'll take it eventually. You can have anything you want, but you better not take it from me.
the dollar will soon be
a free currency ...
This chart is a classic example of a prelude to a revolution by the people against the inflexible TPTB.
.... Everything is fine, why else would gold be going down every day for a few years? Its a peach, hon.
This chart looks a lot like some others that have been overlaid and been posted recently...a divergence from reality.
Free shit army! Join now and collapse the system.
