America, Seriously ... Can I Ask You Something???
Are we in a recession, or not?
If we are, why did you spend $64.8 Million on Paul Blart, Mall Cop in just the last two weeks?
Not to mention handing over $120.2 Million to Madonna and $106.8 Million to Celine in the last year? Yes, you heard that correctly ... CELINE ... a hundred and six point eight million dollars!!!
Are we nearing a depression or not?
If we are, why is Tampa, Florida positive that you will drop $400+ Million to attend the SuperBowl this year? Not including travel (God only knows how much that might cost) or tickets (which are worth tens of millions). It's one weekend ... for one day ... one game ...
Is our credit frozen?
It probably is, because VISA is spending an average of $3 Million (of our frozen credit dollars) per thirty seconds of airtime for SuperBowl commercials.
Total SuperBowl advertisements will likely come in at over $250 Million. They better be damn funny ... super-freakin' funny!!!
Don't get me wrong ... I LOVE the SuperBowl ...
I could go on & on & on ... but what difference would it make ~ you get my point ... we are all spending like crazy ... dumping cash into the system ... Mall Cop ... really??? Dumping cash & all we hear is that things are getting worse. I just don't understand.
I have a few questions:
*******************************
Does anybody else see a disconnect?
Are there (actually) two Americas or three or four or twenty?
Are our realities so different that nothing, NOTHING makes sense anymore?
Does anyone know what these terms really mean? I looked 'em up ... they have real definitions.
Do they mean different things to different people? If so, isn't that a problem???
Does it matter what they REALLY mean or is everything relative at this point?
Is our impending or supposed depression supposed to be somehow less than, worse, or just different than the upheaval and hardship of the Great Depression?
Spending is good, right? 'Cause I'm good at that ...
Right now? Spend now ... I can do it ...
Spending will jumpstart the economy? Yes!!!
Seriously though, how much more can we spend?
Somebody??? Anybody???
