This chart can’t be shown too often
Remember when Obama’s crack team of economic advisers said “Give us a trillion dollars and we’ll keep unemployment under 8%”?
They also said that the unemployment rate would be about 5.2% right about now.
Well, we’re at 7.8% … a mere 50% miss.
Wish I’d been held to those accountability standards when I was working in corporate America.

I used to be a big Southwest fan.
I used to perversely enjoy watching the clock tick so I could get in the “A” boarding group by hitting the enter button exactly 24 hours before flight time.
Then the jabrones at SWA took the fun out of the process by letting online slackers buy their way into the A group for 10 bucks … an “early bird” check-in.
Worse still, when my friends would flaunt their AMEX black cards, I’d charge everything to my SWA-Visa … earning a free flight for only a gazillion “flight legs”.
Then, the SWA jabrones changed their credit card program … making it less lucrative and way more confusing.
