More bad news for republicans...
 
(Reuters) - The U.S. services sector grew in March at its fastest pace
in nearly four years, data showed on Monday, while pending sales
contracts for existing homes rose in February, suggesting steady
economic improvement.

Housing Market

The Institute for Supply Management said its service index grew in March
for a third straight month, jumping to 55.4, its strongest reading since
May 2006. That was up from February's 53.0 reading and above economists'
forecasts for 54.0 for March.

A reading above 50 indicates expansion in the sector.

U.S. stock indexes rose and the dollar pared losses against the yen
after the data, which bolstered hopes that the economy is recovering
swiftly from a deep recession.

Separate reports last week showed the U.S. manufacturing sector grew for
an eighth straight month in March, expanding at its fastest pace since
July 2004, while U.S. employers added jobs last month at the fastest
rate in three years.

"Looks like the good news continues," said Alan Gayle, senior investment
strategist at Ridgeworth Investments in Richmond, Virginia. "All this
suggests that the economic recovery is spilling over into job creation."

A separate report from the National Association of Realtors showed
contracts for pending sales of previously owned homes unexpectedly rose
in February.

Both reports "are generally supporting the idea that the recovery is
moving ahead," said Tom Porcelli, senior economist at RBC Capital
Markets in New York. "We're moving along here -- there's no better way
to state it."

The vast U.S. services sector accounts for some two-thirds of U.S.
economic activity, and analysts say growth in this sector bodes well for
consumer spending and overall employment.

The employment component of the ISM index rose slightly in March, while
new orders jumped as well.

The Conference Board, a private research group, said the U.S. job market
strengthened for a seventh straight month in March, with fewer Americans
having trouble finding work.

Economists say job growth is essential for continued economic expansion,
particularly as government stimulus spending starts to fade. And despite
improvements in the labor market, the jobless rate remained at 9.7
percent in March for a third straight month.

Good news for America is, of course, bad news for the Republicans.

For those in the know, it isn't expansion, it is currency deflation,
otherwise known as inflation. Check out you gasoline proces. USD has
lost about 5% of its value in the last month alone.

And real estate isn't going to despreciate like USD....

Today, CAD is so close to par you wish you could shave like that.

Waste of time. The panderers have the upper hand. It is not possibe to
bring the United States back to a structure of production, solid, profitable
core industries, a majprity middle class, or civilized social standards. It
likely won't become 3rd world (maybe in 4 to 5 generations) but 2nd world is
solidly in place. No sense in getting upset about it. It's done, and
strangely, enthusiastically endorsed by the masses. 537 scumbags in D.C.

forecasts for 54.0 for March.

A reading above 50 indicates expansion in the sector.


For those in the know, it isn't expansion, it is currency deflation,
otherwise known as inflation. Check out you gasoline proces. USD has
lost about 5% of its value in the last month alone.


inflation last year was 2%.

yeah i love watching the right get bitch slapped. jon chait's blog at
'new republic' has a masterful takedown of right wing puppet larry
kudlow by david frum, who's being expelled by the conservative
movement

not unlike when chait showed that jim manzi, a right winger who writes
for 'national review' was all ****ed up when he said the US economy
grew faster than 'socialist' europe's did.

the right is filled with horse**** claims

And real estate isn't going to despreciate like USD....


Today, CAD is so close to par you wish you could shave like that.

DAMN! *That means pretty soon we'll need even more illegal Mexicans!
(Legitimate Mexicans are building cars, TV's, electronics, home
appliances
etc. in Mexico, doing the jobs "Americans" just won't do.)


You can NEVER have enough low wage retail clerks, car wash attendants and
government lackies.


The problem with the government lackies is that if you were to do a cost
to value analysis (actual hours worked vs paid for) you end up in
$100s/hour. Let's outsourse them all.


Like the military? They're gov't employees. Oh wait, we tried that and got
Blackwater.

Funny, we are still the world's third largest exporter.


All 3rd world countries are exporters - of raw materials, to producer
countries like red China and India..
