C'mon, that was way too much effort to be a serious attempt at an argument.

I think the GDP is a better indicator of economic trends than two isolated examples
No, I was simply giving two examples of why people have a hard time believing that the economy is getting better. These two announcements are on top of numerous layoffs and bankrupcies EDS, K-Mart, etc.

Personal bankruptcies are up 24% over last year in Michigan. This area is still recessed and our unemployment has been at 7.4% for the past two months. Things aren't looking up here.
