simple numbers, The difference is the county pays for the cog, Xcell pays for CR 27. If Xcell didn't pay the county would end up with fixing the mess, how would you prefer to spread the cost? Over the residents of the county or over Xcell customers?
Sbvor, Can you provide us with a link that shows/proves that "the very large majority of those 80,000 have already found better jobs" did get a better job. Other then something that points back to your own opinion, of course.
So your soap box is that we might be but until the NBER declares one we are not. And that the present data your using says we are not but the NBER hasn't determined that so are you any different then the media?
You have also stated that one data point doesn't determine the NBER decision but today your pounding the table about unemployment (a data point that has varied by administrations). Is that ultimate indicator or should it be stock market results? But then again you stated "ii) No, the NBER does not mention the stock market per se in their descriptions of what they evaluate."
Are you really different then the media? A twist is a twist, it only matters if it's in you direction or not. The NBER admits that they often declare a recession after its done, isn't that closing the barn door after the horse is gone? Could the media just be trying to get the door closed before the horse is gone while your trying to add it to your herd?
I stand corrected on who calls the recession but you are clearly declaring we are not in a recession or approaching one when by your own admission the NBER has not stated that. They will make that determination in the future.
Now just where do you stand? Do you know more then the NBER will know in the future? Or are you making statements about the present that please you?
By the NBER's own admission they live in the past but it seems much more prudent to look to the future. Even the FED president recently stated that a recession was possible even through I would bet it didn't please him. If I knew who was on the NBER I might be able to find a similar statement........
Your original and correct premise was that we have not experienced a recession until the Conference Board declares one by looking back at two quarters of negative GDP. That was why you demanded the correction, and a the missing correction 2.
Now your presenting Wall Street data that might indicate a tulip festival is occurring and unemployment figures that the CB does not look at. Neither of which defines a recession.
Please pick a story and stick to it. I understand that by ignoring/dismissing the bad thing it might not happen or be happing but then again I've known many a cuckold that was surprised when the wife told him the truth a year later.

The Recession of 2008 That Wasn't?
So none of your other links are to media based sites?
Watching others and experincing a layoff might be two different reality's. Is it more relevant to be involved or to be an observer?

Charlton Heston dies at 84
I didn't care for his acting but his NRA contribution was memorable. Even with his passing that thought will live on.
