Well frankly I've never heard a major media outlet ever even talk about Deutsche Bank, good or bad.
We also haven't even mentioned that the stock market has been on a 15% rally in the last month. I don't see how you can spin that as a bad thing.
Not to mention unemployment numbers are typically the last thing to come around in terms of recovery. Stocks and GDP have historically bounced back quicker. It is entirely normal that GDP growth can be positive while unemployment can rise (see the U.S. economy in the early 80's). The mere fact that the labor market is stabilizing is GREAT news from a short and long-run perspective.
I don't doubt that there is still some bad blood to be beaten out of the economy. But does even a prosperously growing economy never have any problems? I've yet to see one that does. That's just not how economies work.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
