Recession Is Over!

Fed chairman Ben Bernanke said earlier this week that the recession is over. Keep in mind, the Fed is the same group that mismanaged the economy into the Great Depression. These are the same people that declared we were in a recession after it had been going on for a year. I'm no economist, but even I could tell the economy wasn't all that great at least 3 years ago. But, go ahead and spend, spend, spend now that the economy is back to normal. Just don't expect unemployment to hit single digits again for at least another year. If it turns out that somehow our economic gurus who led us into this mess are wrong and the recession isn't really over, one of my first orders of business (I have many) will be to replace your worthless Federal Reserve Note with something that has real value.

Do you even realize how much currency we have out. The Gold standard would have been great if we stuck with it but now it is a pipe dream. Under Obama alone Trillions have been printed! Where are you gonna get all this gold and store it? Or are you just gonna devalue the dollars that everyone holds now to introduce an new currency? I'll tell you what we will raise unicorns and sell them to buy the gold, and we will have dragons melt it into huge blocks that we can make a magical pyramid with! So listen to yourself: "I'm no economist"

  3. Don't be ridiculous! Everyone knows we already sold our unicorns in 1792 to get the gold and silver used to establish the US Mint.
