Economic News:..........................by Rico.
Rejoice and celebrate!!!!!
Wotta guy! Only one month on the job and he's already helped the IRS collect over $150k in 'back' or 'unpaid' taxes...and that's only from his cabinet picks! I can only HOPE for more of this.
Meanwhile,
- jobless claims set a new record (the worst job losses in 50 years are still to come)
- the Dow closed at a six-year record LOW yesterday
- inflation is UP (big shocka there!)
- Ahnold's Kalifohnia is broke, causing them to raise taxes to record new levels and is considering a return to the muni bond market (I wouldn't touch them with bernie Madoff's money)
AND THE PUBLIC REACTS.....errrrr, ENTHUSIASTICALLY.
Let's ALL sing the praises of the HOPEy one now!!!
Hey, c'mon! What's the WORST that can happen when government "runs" things?

Aww, from the Daily Journal (LA's Leading Legal Newspaper)......
'Among those hit hard is the American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California, which is confronting the worst budget crisis in at least three decades. For the first time ever in January, it laid off two staff members - an organizer and a fund raiser - according to Ramona Ripston, its executive director since 1972.
Ripston said the group's senior management team of about seven people took salary cuts of five to 10 percent for the first time since 1979. Staff members, who previously received full health coverage at no cost, have also agreed to begin paying $50 per month for their insurance, she added.
"People come to me on a daily basis and say, 'Will I have a job next week?'" Ripston said. "I just don't know."'

News....
The Audacity of Irony. VDH on Obambi.
£2trillion - the terrifying total of our national debt... that's £33,000 for every man, woman and child in Britain. That's a lot of money we don't have.
Some Muslim schools 'make children despise the West': Ban on cricket and Harry Potter. Banning cricket. Deport the savages!!!
£62,500 payout for gay airport guard after woman colleague wobbled her breasts at him. Oh for f**ks sake.
Smears, lies and spin - how Labour reacted to my 100 ways to cut council tax. It how the left deals with anyone who dare speak the truth.
Under this rule, even Osama Bin Laden is British. And I am a chinaman!!
Pupils told to think like a suicide bomber. Whoever thought this up should be flogged.
Iran has enough uranium 'to build a nuclear bomb'. Mainly thanks to the UN's lack of testicles.
US demands for more troops in Afghanistan ignored. Time to weed out the wets and bring in those with balls. Who cares if Australia isn't anywhere near the North Atlantic NATO should become the worlds peacekeeper because the UN is a joke. How many millions have died whilst under 'UN Protection'
Zimbabwe stock exchange opens for business in dollars. It's a start.
Georgia Eurovision entry to poke fun at Vladimir Putin. Expect a power blackout during their performance, if they live that long.
Iranian builders win contracts in city that Shias helped to wreck. So we liberated Iraq just to give it over to Iran.
Robert Mugabe packs 61 people into Cabinet. Crooks and cronies the lot of them. Mugabe has to be killed to save a nation.
Commandos target drugs labs where Taleban and mafias reap $100m profits. There must be a GM way to covertly nobble the poppy crop.
The mystery of Ireland's worst driver. Priceless.
