Correction: Economy's rebound did not hit 3.5 as first thought

The economy grew at a slower pace last quarter,  far slower when one includes stimulus funding for car sales.

There was no business growth. Consumers bought nothing. Jobs were lost. As mentioned, the taxpayers funded new car sales, somewhere in the neighborhood of $24,000 per car.

Government spending was government growth yet they attempt to brainwash America into believing the economy is back on track?

Besides government, who is buying homes?

The economic rebound numbers had to readjust downward, it is a government economy.

Large retailers are creating nearby warehouses to stock for multiple stores as well as lower lifo/fifo costs. It's too expensive to maintain an inventory and too costly to order what is not in stock.

The economy does not turn around until the government gets out of the picture.
