The seven most shocking, in my opinion, are the following:
...The actual share of the the population with a job has collapsed and remains low.
... The size of the U.S. labor force has also collapsed, partly due to discouraged Americans giving up looking for a job...
...Those without a job have been without a job for a long, long, long time...
This recovery has lagged others in terms of economic output or GDP growth (via the Minneapolis Fed)...
The result of the weak recovery is a huge gap between where the economy should be, in terms of growth, and where it is...
The slow, anemic recovery has contributed to keeping the housing market in a depressed state...
The White House itself admits that its new budget plan would keep the national debt on a dangerous and unsustainable trajectory (source: The White House)...
The next time I get a "Stimulus Package", I want the Democrats to buy me flowers first.
