Misery Index soaring under Obama

Just tell her the truth... that you got pissed on and it soaked your shirt and got in your eyes.

How am I going to explain this soaked shirt and my red eyes to my wife?

Yes, I certainly did get pissed on. Thank you for bringing that to the forum.

Public sector payroll is down at least 120,000. At the very least you recognize that the census workers are no longer on the payroll, right? So it only makes sense that even just counting them public sector payroll is down.

Here's an article about it. You guys realize that you're posting on a trading site and that this is business news, of course. I don't get how people would trade without following the business news:

Show me the data which shows real pay rolls not models. And I am talking about Mc Jobs. We are talking about real jobs.
 
And the misery just keeps getting better. Can this be true? This is what happens when you pass it before reading it.

Did you know that if you sell your house after 2012 you will pay a 3.8% sales tax on it? That's $3,800 on a $100,000 home etc.

When did this happen? It's in the healthcare bill.

SALES TAX TO GO INTO EFFECT 2013 (Part of HC Bill)

REAL ESTATE SALES TAX

So, this is "change you can believe in"?

Under the new health care bill - did you know that all real estate transactions will be subject to a 3.8% Sales Tax? The bulk of these new taxes don't kick in until 2013. If you sell your $400,000 home, there will be a $15,200 tax. This bill is set to screw the retiring generation who often downsize their homes.

Edit: The above is not quite accurate. Still, WTF is this doing in a HC bill?
This is inaccurate and needs to be corrected. The truth about the bill is that if you sell your home for a profit above the capital gains threshold of $250,000 per individual or $500,000 per couple then you would be required to pay the additional 3.8 percent tax on any gain realized over this threshold.

Wow. Democrats are toast.

I don't know. They should be toast, but their strategy has shifted to personal attacks for real or, usually, imagined flaws of their opponents. Unfortunately, that works well too.
