I know my corner of the country may be different and I'm fully aware that things could reverse tomorrow - but in the Pacific Northwest things are roaring.

I live in the Pacific Northwest and there is nothing like what you said anywhere I look.

In Oregon public pension expenses are exploding, tax revenues are way down, unemployment is still 10%+ and people are taking big pay cuts to get any job. Business is weak, including the Portland Metro area.

Where is this roaring economy that you claim to see?
