The U.S Bankruptcy Courts' computer system for numbering system doesn't count past 9,999 filings per District per calendar year. Yet the U.S. Government says the economy is healthy and growing. Congress is in over-time session to decide how to spend a projected surplus in the Budget. If they are, the U.S. Government is not paying attention to them. This is the Age of Good News.
Nobody pays attention to reality.
You're surely not going to hear about reality on the Six O'Clock News. Besides, nobody understand economics. Reporters certainly don't. Bureaucrats certainly don't. The dumbed-down U.S. citizen certainly doesn't.
