Right, blame the weather not the
idiot socialist we have for president
the moronic people that populate this country
the terabytes of regulation
and the anti-business and anti-success mentality in this country.
Nope, it's the f*cking weather.

Apparently GDP would've been negative if it weren't for the increase in health care spending due to Obamacare...
Of course... Everything is the fault of Global Warming... Come on... You should know that by now...
Anything below 1% is essentially negative as the U.S. population generally grows by 0.7-0.9% per year, so realistically we're still in a "great recession" if no depression.
No worries. All wee need is some stimulus. Maybe lower interest rates. More social programs. Borrow some more money. That will fix it.
What? we're already doing that you say?
Maybe we can start a program called myRA where people can only invest in the govt. Perfect!
Canada just posted data showing a 2.5% rate for 1Q14 growth.
Good thing there was no winter there.
expect that to continue, i'm thinking for another 5-10 years considering obamacare is going to have employers automating everything they can and the debt load the country carries.
over 100 years ago, there was an era called the long slow depression that lasted something like 30 years, i think we're in another one now.
The Soviets were always suffering from bad weather, too.
When I was buying a bottle of whiskey the other day, I asked the guy behind the counter "Isn't it wonderful how - with technological advancement, and improvements in industrial processes - everything keeps getting cheaper and cheaper?"
He looked confused. I hope this triggered a cascade of thought.
Captcha: chronic tlocto. Yup.
I expect the baby boomers to come out of the woodwork in the near future and start blaming all these young people for "destroying the economy" even though they are unemployeed or underemployed at low paying crap jobs. What is the statistic.. only like 3 out of every 10 generation y males even has full time employment and nearly 2 out of three of those FT jobs pay around minimum wage?
Yup - America got what it voted for.
As did Canada - we voted for prosperity.
Canada didn't vote for prosperity, but they did choose the best of three bad choices. If Canadians really wanted prosperity they would have voted for a party that promised to gut government and entitlements. The fact there is no place whatsoever for a party like that on the Canadian political landscape shows Canadians don't want to be prosperous they want to be parasites. Things look OK in Canada now because commodities are still OK and the various governments have been pumping up a huge housing bubble. When those tank, and they will, all hell will break loose in Canada.
