Everyone in government keeps trying to suggest what fantastic shape the economy is in because of $4 trillion worth of excess spending that created almost no new jobs - just elevate commodity prices. They want us thinking the economy is on some sugar high and things will come crashing down if we don't continue to overspend, even though it's not creating any growth. Business leaders don't want to see tax reform, so they can't be trusted any more than the politicians. Much the same kind of bad cop, worse cop than when GM was going down the tubes when labor and mgmt. would continue to overspend to accommodate the interests of the other side. Nobody wanted to see their benefits get cut. Fast forward 2 years since they came back from the dead, they are one of the most profitable companies in the US again.
