<<From Business Week magazine as posted by Original Mad Dog....

"The economic statistics collected by the U.S. government are probably as honest and accurate as any in the world. Perfect, though, they're not. Collecting data about the American economy is a boundless challenge on a limited budget. And it's even harder in periods of dramatic change -- like today.""

Thanks for printing that story, Mad Dog. I'm reposting for Amy J.'s and Elroy's benefit, just to make sure they see the point I was trying to make in some earlier posts.

Attempting to appeal to common sense when people are claiming their government is "cooking numbers" seems to be a losing battle. Glad that a national magazine sees it the same way I do, for the small amount this is worth.
