Any fool can juice an economy by borrowing and spending 500+ billion per year. The myth that this is a strong economy is shattered once you ask two questions:

- Who's going to pay off the Bush debt and when?

- If you don't have Exxon stock, are you better off than you were five years ago?

People these days, I mean real people not guys like you with a million in Exxon stock, have to borrow more and more money to make ends meet. real estate, health care, education and health care are all costs which have skyrocketed under Bush. Which means you're only better off if you previously owned the real estate and can easily afford $3.50 gas and $2,000 a year health insurance.
