Every day, it's doom and gloom. The media, the Democrats, the Supe and Shawn in PPOT. Every day it's how bad things are, how they're getting worse, how America is going to crap. Which of course plays well into politics, but lets avoid that topic. Obviously prices of many things are going up and some stupid people made bad choices and lost their homes. Then on the other hand, unemployment is low, America in general still has an incredible standard of living, and I don't see people starving or dying in the streets.

My question: in your life are things getting worse, better, or is it business as usual? Why? Be mature and answer the question, don't bring in childish political mud-slinging.
