Default Recession Where? -- Paid Requests -- Recession How?

I will preface this thread by saying "blablablablabla and bla" in hope that I have offended no one...

A LARGE amount of money is exchanging hands in the Paid Requests section... bla and bla and ka-ching.... It's sweet considering the turmoil that some politicians would have you believe...

Question: How many of YOU think the law makers in the US and abroad are overusing the words "economy" and "recession" in the same sentence? Perhaps they have yet to be abuse by PayPal chargebacks? LOL --- Perhaps they don't care? As long as it's not their money in question - doesn't matter?

What do you think?

Jacquii.


((mumbles - I feel so free of bla-chunks now...))

Recession isn't a subjective term. It means something very specific, typically two consecutive quarters of falling real gross national product.

Some things do well in recessions, pawn shops and pizzia deliveries will probably do well and some of us think, because people will go out less, there may be actual gains in some online areas.

Looks like walmart isn't suffering the economic woes of the great deperession we are currently experiencing. So much so some poor guy got stampeded upon by a herd of hungry customers. It's crazy, but we live through crazy times in a world of crazy type folk.

Anyway, yeah.... poor guy but when buisness is this good the economic strain isn't much of a strain.

Paul edited out the sentence about your mother's private parts because I found it highly offensive and I complained about it, that's why.:down:
