"people are terrified of Hillary bringing back Hillary healthcare. "

The specter of socialized medicine certain is not inspiring of confidence. As the probability of her anointment increases, consumer confidence will fall reciprocally.

You buy a BMW and American auto makers are struggling.

My attitude????

I bought mostly American until my BMW.....and it was mostly junk. I finally gave up when I bought the Beamer. And now I will probably never go back. So don't expect me to walk in lock step with your faux patriotism. You want to support companies that have bled jobs for years because of their incompetence, then go for it.....it would be typical of your misguided attitudes. If it wasn't for foreign companies, this country would barely have an auto industry.

Same people with your attitude don't buy Caterpillars.

How come they are buying Deere but not Caterpillar.....why don't you get informed:

Deere Posts 23% Rise in Net On Strong Equipment Sales

The economy is doing great.

Those of us who are not automatons have posted article after article detailing why this recovery is not great. I just posted one about WA state's recovery which is one of the best in the country but is still producing mostly low paying jobs. In other words, this recovery is made up of sh!t jobs. Jobs that don't pay a living wage.

So you're hanging your hat on a feel good poll of "consumer confidence".

See sh!t jobs up above.

Whoop-dee-do. Gas prices are high and people are terrified of Hillary bringing back Hillary healthcare.

You are the one who is terrified of Clinton bringing back national health care coverage. Well get over it because it should happen in the next ten years.

And Harris stop playing stupid. You know damn well that things are seriously screwed up and that the GOP way is no way to go if this country wants a positive future. Things have to change and change now, or the US will be third world in 50 years or less.
