You've proved it for me bill. Your just to dumb to realize it. And your use of troll is wrong. As per your usual Modus operandi.
Instead of draining the economy and crying about how bad it is why don't you go work a little more and a little harder and actually try to fix it by partaking in it.

Uhh yeah.. and you are a troll who flames the forum but you havent proven anything.
You just made up some bullshit and climbed up on your soapbox and made a bunch of accusations about me. You havent proven a damn thing and the simple reason for that is I haven't dis proven it because quite frankly Skanc it's non of your business or anyone elses for that matter.

Uhh yes you do. Skanc.
This topic was going just fine until you and your sidekick Spaceboy came along and decided to whine and complain about others and not the other way around.
For some reason you two superheros cant seem to keep a single line of thought and instead wriggle and twist things around until the essence of the topic has been so distorted by your Ad Homenim it doest even resemble the original topic at all.
This topic is about the economy... Skanc.

Speaking of lies... Skanc... You portray yourself as if you are without sin. But by all means Skanc hurl those rocks around and watch what happens to your glass house.[This message has been edited by 84Bill (edited 01-06-2008).]

I'm still waiting for your reply to this Phranc.. or are playing the role of Skanc by proxy?
No need to answer because either way I'll know all I need to know.

Space produces nothing for the people at all, he isnt even a public servant doing something for the public. He is in essence a worthless tax dollar drain sucking up money from the treasury who can easily do the same job a a fraction of his current salary.

Crying about what? What am I crying about that is so important that you feel the need to flame and troll every thread with your pitiful attempts to humiliate me. If anything all I ever hear out of your mouth is whining and complaints about welfare and those unfortunates who are on it.

How cleaver of you bill. You got me on a typo. I meant skanc isn't a word. The one you use all the time. I bet you are real proud of your self now.
I don't complain about about the "unfortunates" on welfare bill just losers like you who don't really need it but take it any way and then brag about how you don't need it and take it as an "entitlement" and how your sticking it to the man. The man being those of us who work hard for a living. Your words bill. Your hole.
Why don't you have anything to lose bill? You are right I do have a lot to lose. I have lost it all before too. But unlike you I didn't cry about it and leech of others I worked hard and made something of my life. You're just a sad pitiful little loser who blames every one else for his failures.
So bill when are you going to help the economy out buy putting more then you leech out?
I don't try to humiliate you bill. You do it to your self with your own words. Now stop crying about how bad you have it and work harder to make it better.

Leading Indicators Adding to fears of recession. Next report Jan. 18
Economy faces weak winter
Conference Board index of leading indicators falls by 0.4 percent in November, adding to fears of 2008 recession.
December 20 2007: 10:32 AM EST
NEW YORK (AP) -- A gauge of future business activity fell last month, indicating the economy could be dragged down further amid rising costs and housing woes, a business research group said Thursday.
The Conference Board said its index of leading indicators dropped 0.4 percent in November, after falling 0.5 percent in October and rising by a slight 0.1 percent in September.
It was at 136.3 in November, versus a revised 136.9 in the previous month.
Last month's drop was close to what economists surveyed by Thomson/IFR had predicted, who on average said there would be a drop of 0.5 percent.
The index is watched as an indicator of where the U.S. economy is headed, and persistent weakness can signal a recession in three to six months. Many economist believe the current slowdown could mean a full recession in 2008.
Ten indicators make up the leading index. Seven of them fell: stock prices, average weekly initial claims for unemployment insurance, index of consumer expectations, real money supply, building permits, interest rate spread and manufacturers new orders for consumer goods and materials.

 Lets see.. 7 - 10 = -3
Yeah  I can see how you would believe that most indicators are up... Skanc.
As far as the rest of your drivel...

OMG less then 1/2 a %. What was it for the quarter bill? You picked up one almost insignificant negative area to make it look bad. And it was from 2 months ago. Oh and bill thats not a negative growth its a drop of .4% from the previous positive growth. Its still growing just not as much. So I didn't lie. Leading indicators do in fact still show growth. You don't even understand what your posting.
Dumb ass that would be 10-7 = 3.
You can't even get that right.
3 is still positive.
What other links do you have that you don't understand?[This message has been edited by Phranc (edited 01-06-2008).]
