actually mean much of anything in terms of american quality of life.



Don't know where this is coming from. In post #5 you seemed to dismiss my position because my "life is not so bad." I then attempted to implicitly say that if the relative quality of life was the bar by which economic success is measured, then we wouldn't need supply side economics. We could just use any old economic system and then, regardless of the outcome, take comfort in the fact that compared to other countries our quality of life wouldn't be that bad. It's a flawed notion, i know, but you're the one who brought it up.



So being able to take out a loan to buy an automobile is now a sign of a glowing economy?



But you don't understand how the other side thinks because i speak for myself and myself alone.


Your problem is that you're completely myopic when it comes to relevant economic indicators. I already knew this about the "other side".
