If they were just going to fake numbers, why would there have even been such terrible Q1 numbers to start with?

The GDP is calculated by a 40 year old virgin Obama staffer. He was probably trying to cover for something.

With this great 4 point growth we'll need some new fresh faces to inject into the labor force...




After all, if the economy was shit, we'd have no reason to open our doors.

...when you break down the growth in GDP, it’s clear that car and light truck purchases played a major role. And subprime loans, in turn, are financing those transactions.

In the second quarter, motor vehicle and parts spending grew an annual 17.5%. Put another way, cars made up 3.7% of all consumer spending, the highest rate since the first quarter of 2008.

Subprime loans make up about a third of new car-sales and two-thirds of used cars, according to data from Experian Automotive, at the end of last year. The New York Times, in a story about the subprime loan sector , pointed out that growth has climbed more than 130% in the five years since the crisis.
