I'm So Happy the Recession is Over! Aren't You?

I'm so happy the recession is over. It was a tough one..,but based upon multiple press releases this week from leading economists, politicians and even business news sources...they were all on the band wagon in chorus saying the recession is over. So it must be true. It does not matter that consumer confidences is still dropping, and that unemployment is still on the rise. It also does not matter that many states will suffer major budget deficits in the coming months, air travel is down, and that post offices are closing. All those signs are irrelevant. The stock market closed today over 10000 on the DJIA. Even the price of a barrel of oil is rising on the hopes that happy days will be here again soon! That is all we need to know.
