PHONY SALES? GM Channel-Stuffing Surges To All-Time Record.“Because when economic growth at all costs is needed to demonstrate just how viable America is, and a semi-nationalized car marker is one of the only conduits to ‘generate’ economic growth, it does not matter if the end product is actually demanded or will simply corrode and rust in some dealer showroom in perpetuity. After all it is the act of building the car that matters for various monthly PMI, CMI, regional Fed and GDP purposes.”

Related: GM willing to buy back Volts.“General Motors will buy Chevrolet Volts back from any owner who is afraid the electric cars will catch fire, the company’s CEO said Thursday. In an exclusive interview with The Associated Press, CEO Dan Akerson insisted that the cars are safe, but said the company will purchase the Volts because it wants to keep customers happy. Three fires have broken out in Volts after side-impact crash tests done by the federal government.”

BUT DO WE BELIEVE THEM? Energy Dept. defends air pollution regulations, says new rules won’t crash power grid.“The Energy Department said Thursday that upcoming air pollution regulations will not threaten the reliability of the country’s electric grid, the latest effort by the Obama administration to counter claims by Republicans and industry officials that the rules could cause power outages.”

This rule replaces EPA's 2005 Clean Air Interstate Rule (CAIR). A December 2008 court decision kept the requirements of CAIR in place temporarily but directed EPA to issue a new rule to implement Clean Air Act requirements concerning the transport of air pollution across state boundaries. This action responds to the court's concerns. Why do you want all these people to die??

Who was president in 2005? Who enacted the CAA? Who appointed the judge that issued the 2008 ruling?

I'll wait

The 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments mandated EPA to control toxic air pollutants more than 20 years ago.
20 years... 20 years!!!!

Pretty shitty business model if it takes 20 years to comply with the law.

So the EPA is implementing rules, as directed by a court, to comply with the Clean Air Act (signed into law by Nixon) and it's Obama's fault.

Got it.

The last time vette had to put me on iggy was when he threw a hissy fit about the EPA then I reminded him "his side" created it and signed off on it.

And this thread makes me sad seeing all the people who really have no clue how the economy works. Public schools? Fuck, I don't know how the even public education system could fuck these twats up so badly.

12,190 posts in an economic thread, about about 10 of them are actually about economics. The rest are mindless political posturing posts - which in and of itself is a perfect example of why the economy is in the tank.

Well said. As soon as we politicize the economy, we lose sight of what it takes to do right by the country as a whole. The problem is that the politicians run their campaign on economics so the pissing matches ensue and we all lose out.

I'm sure this is a call for a celebration by the obama regime

Like I needed you to "remind" me. The Good Humor Man and his ice cream truck will be doing wheel stands in Hell the day your dumb fucking ass ever has to remind me of anything. I put you on Iggy because you're a mannerless punk, and a keyboard coward.

Keyboard coward? Remember when your fat-ass challenged me to a fight? To meet me somewhere and put up your dukes? That was in true LT fashion. You are the coward that hides behind the iggy button when someone calls you out on your numerous bullshit posts and then hits the "view post" button every time I post in a thread.

You post with various racist alts and keyboard cowboys -- those are your friends and they are the ones you share ideologies with. People like you are the ones bitching about the Occupy Movement as you sit in your Lazy-Boy collecting funds from our government.

So fuck off you cowardly piece of shit.

ETA: Oh yeah, someone quote me.

Unemployment rate falls to lowest since March 2009

WASHINGTON (AP) — Small businesses and startups that were skittish about the economy this summer started hiring in bigger numbers this fall, helping drive the unemployment rate down to 8.6 percent in November, the lowest in two and a half years.

Unemployment went down to 8.6% because 315,000 people gave up looking for a job.

It;s mostly because the BLS went back and revised jobs data upward for each of the last four months,

Labor Department's own figures.

Which your extremist sources filtered and cherry-picked for you and told you not to read on your own.
