June Home Sales SOARED 24%!!! but.... May's number was revised downward to a rate of 267,000, the slowest pace on records dating back to 1963. Sales for April and March were also revised downward. Are you really being too negative if you read the fine print rather than falling for the BS? I worry more about those who get excited over the hype and those who disseminate and sell the lies. If the shysters see their deceitful tactics are working, they'll continue using them. The lies and scams are what's created this mess. Don't need to make it worse by further enabling. The bigger the lie, the bigger the fall from grace

tejek, If you think the unemployment rate is really as reported, well, that is really sad. You are grossly mistaken. And if you bothered to read any of the countless articles and papers as to why this is, you would not make a fool of yourself defending a data point that is clearly flawed. Or maybe you consider discouraged workers to NOT be unemployed. That is how they get the number that low. Very solid data would indicate the true rate of unemployment is probably between 15-20%. GET IT? Doubtful. GT TH
