It's unbelievable how you guys can rationalize being 100% completely wrong. And pretend like you are right.
I picked the Panthers today. I was 100% correct but it was camouflaged by the 2 TDs from Capernick.
One of your problems is that you conflate things. Football does not have any thing to do with economic depression.
Malinvestment absolutely gives the appearance that things are better. This is the same thing that Japan is doing and destroying the Japanese people's savings in the process.

And you have a very difficult time with analogies. Obviously football has little to do with the economy. Wrong is wrong, however. Which is the point.

OK--give me a few examples of current "malinvestment". And how it's making the economy look better.
What specifically is Japan doing that is destroying people's savings?

Hmmm... I wonder why that is???
Yep--labor force participation rate is part of it. As is job creation.

Overpriced houses, GM, Solyndra, TBTF banks and AIG
And how it's making the economy look better.
The price of housing, stocks, and treasuries are overvalued
What specifically is Japan doing that is destroying people's savings
Printing money out of thin air.
Unemployment has been falling for at least 2-3 years.
Hmmm... I wonder why that is???
Oh come on CIC haven't you been listening it is caused by inequality...
OK--I'll actually agree that GM, AIG and the TBTF banks could be considered malinvestment. Houses and Solyndra are not. Bailouts are often poor investments.
Stupid Liberal to the core... to say "Housing and Solyndra are not malinvestments"..
LOL! how stupid...

They are not. Look up the definition of malinvestment and get back with me.
