ace...."facts" are not without contexts. you cannot simply bite a graph, paste it up without situating it and then congratulate yourself on having established a "factual" basis for your absurd interpretation of the ongoing economic situation.

you are working with factoids, which are less than facts---more arbitrary bits of infotainment.

look at it this way--the self-evidence of your basic claims are counter-intuitive enough that you might consider making a serious argument in favor of them. of course you don't have to do it, any more than i or anyone else has to read any particular thread.
but if you think you're making a claim that might obtain for people who do not inhabit your skull, you might present a more complete case for it.
