   It's already been a year of manufacturing decline....and you're happy as is.   
   Same with spiked housing mortgages.  You're happy as is.   
   Same with energy prices....actually Joe is working to raise them even   
   more....and you're happy with that.   
   Same with food prices....which energy will raise even more to make you happy.   
      
   Joe could put everyone on rationed bran flakes to survive....and you'd be   
   happy with that.
