Always believe everything you read & hear from politians! Sounds like the President’s statement “the private sector is doing fine”. News 4’s question to viewers several days ago was how is the local employment & housing doing? Last I saw was over 20% not improving and over 44% getting worse. Who do we believe, the people who live here or the media & political leaders?

A News 4 survey would be considered at best, anecdotal evidence. There seems to be ample evidence that the local economy has begun to stabilize (taxable sales, median housing prices, unemployment statistics). Turing a corner? Thay may be a bit of a stretch.
