I am following now statistics released on both sides of the Atlantic and I am slowly arriving to the conclusion that with all the drawbacks of Europe they are at least straight forward and honest in their statistical reports and comments in stark contrast to the US establishment which makes every possible move to put a rosy twist on any statistics and even "adjust" or change the statistical numbers to "meet estimation" only to revise them later down / more negative .... but by then they are "old news" It is amazing to me that a government will twist and turn it's statistics for political gain and embezzlement of people relying on fix income and those depending on their pension or social security for their living. Disgusting is a to modest word. Was hoping that after the previous administration left so were his scam bags but it seem they are strongly rooted in DC and WS. ....... not to mention CNBS who curn lies to death as long as they are interpreted bullish for the markets
