Some encouraging stats;

Total tax collected from the sale of guns and ammunition, in 2007 $287,836,000, in 2009 $452,582,000 so it seems the right wingers raising the gun confiscation scare are helping with the deficit.

I 2008 Sista Sarah's approval rating was 40% as of oct 2010 it was 22%, probably proving the old adage "T'is better to remain silent and have people think you a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt>"

Daily consumer spending dropped from $91 in 2008 to $62 in 2010.

Active militias rose from 43 in 2007 to 127 in 2009.

Sleep well.
