Funny, you only get that type of real economic news from non-US based media...

Why is that??

Cause they don't know shit. You would think the Brits had other things to worry about besides our economy which is doing much better then theirs. They should worry about their PIIGS - Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece and Spain.
It's always us who come to their rescue.

It's the bottom of the boat completely falling out...

The Fed has cut its bond purchases from $85bn to $45bn a month, and is expected to halt quantitative easing altogether by October as it pares back $10bn at each meeting. The taper is clearly chipping away at a key prop of the economy. The stock of narrow M1 money has not grown for four months, and M1 velocity has fallen to an all-time low of 6.3.

Oh come on now Bubba - Obama and his band of liars explained that it was just that the weather sucked. Now that he is going to cripple coal and increase the price of electricity - the pink unicorns should show up any minute now.
