Jobs improving? Apparently you haven't looked at the Raw data on that. Labor Participation is at record lows.

Rhetoric.

Leave the tail end alone. The car looks better with the polygon lights. The round lights are done. They're old. Give that a rest too.

I think we should call the lights what they are: polygons. They're not square, they're not quite trapezoids, and I'm not even sure they don't have more than 4 sides.

Rhetoric? You sure showed us. What with your facts and all SCM. I mean, how could we argue against that?

You guys are just repeating U6 stuff. But you're not admitting that the U6 rate is based on numbers that INCLUDES people who DO have jobs but are unhappy with them and also INCLUDES people who aren't looking for jobs (which INCLUDE people whom are retired.)

What facts do I really need to state. You have repeated U6 "real rate" over and over. But the U3 rate is really what matters because that is the rate of people actively looking for jobs but cannot find one.

I'm sure that U3 rate also includes people that have the opportunity to pick up a job that they don't want. But that's speculation. Unlike U6 which explains that it's purpose is to show the rate of people who are unemployed at any level of interest AND those that are unhappy with their current job for whatever reason (although I'm sure that it's counting the people whom are unhappy with their wage).

Regardless, it's still rhetoric. Do you have a job? Does anyone who says they're buying a C7 not have a job? I have a job. I have a pretty GOOD job that I'm happy with. I'll be purchasing a C7. Does the U6 rate include me? No. Does the U3 rate include you? I don't know. What I do know is is that I don't care about the U6 rate since it's not accurate in what percentage of people cannot find a job. It's accurate in trying to make an administration look like it's not doing its job. Funny thing is that even when you go by the U6 rate, unemployment has STILL dropped since 2008. But don't let that fact stand in the way of your rhetoric. Keep yelling "Unemployment is at an all time high." Maybe if you keep yelling it loud enough, it might come true.

There's a reason those rating levels exist. If only one rating was considered accurate, they wouldn't have the other 5 measurements.

The car looks almost as good as the berlinetta.

The berlinetta is a regression - the 458 is a much more attractive vehicle. It's ok from the front, but from the side, the berlinetta looks like a Viper - which IMHO got my vote for "all world ugly"

And some people are not only infantile, they're incredibly callous. Not only are the unemployment statistics widely recognized to be understated the amount of jobs created in a month barely covers the amount of new laborers entering the labor force. It's great that you and I have jobs, but I know plenty of people who are very skilled and very employable, yet they have no jobs. But I guess as long as you and I have work, then who cares about the millions of perfectly employable, skilled people who can't find any work, eh? I hope if you ever become unemployed that there are more sympathetic people around to raise the issue of why a country with plenty of resources, both natural and human, and plenty of things which need fixing, yet can't find a way to employ them.

at best the unemployment was at 5%. There will always be unemployed people. It truly unfortunate but a sad fact of modern life that some of the industry jobs will not be coming back. No one here is being callous. But its time to stop complaining about the last few years and move forward and try to be more optimistic about the future rather than complaining about the past. If more people had the mindset of being optimistic they would take more risk, which I believe will help.

sadly there will always be unemployed. There will always be poor people. It is important that we contribute to their well being. It is also important to provide for ourselves and our families as best we can. I contribute and I enjoy the good life. No shame in that.

It will sell at a rate that far exceeds the sales of the c6. It's a look that many people are comparing to the f12 berlinetta. Which is viewed as one of the most beautiful cars in existence . There is no maybe about me needing glasses. This is now a world car. All age groups are liking it for the first time in years.
Wanna bet? Maybe it would if it looked like this...but in it's current state,not only but

With the Dow at 14,000+, I'd say Wall Street appears to be pretty optimistic about the economy. And they're the crooks who got us to 6500 in the first place.
