Unexpectedly, National Gross Domestic Product Grows At All Time Record, Doubling Previous Record Set in 1950

A usual rate of growth for a good quarter (annualized) of growth is 3%.

The US economy grew by 33.1% in the third quarter.

U.S. GDP accelerated at a 33.1% annualized pace in the third quarter, the Commerce Department reported.

That was better than the 32% estimate from a Dow Jones economist survey.

A surge in business and residential investment along with stronger consumer activity helped the economy after its worst-ever quarter in Q2.


...

The gain came after a 31.4% plunge in the second quarter and was better than the 32% estimate from economists surveyed by Dow Jones. The previous post-World War II record was the 16.7% burst in the first quarter of 1950.

Meanwhile, Democrats, and NeverTrump Traitors, are pushing Lockdowns Forever for a respiratory illness which, while bad, is only twice as deadly as the flu we get literally every fucking year.

Earlier in the campaign slow Joe was talking about a K shaped recovery, without understanding what he was saying. I think he was trying to say the rich get richer, the poor get poorer, which is stupid.

Well, the "K" means that the rich get richer and everyone else flatlines. Think of the K tipped over on to its back.

but what IS happening could be described as a K shaped recovery as applied to different regions. Leftist shitholes are headed even further down - states that are opening up and allowing growth are not only getting their own natural growth, but also the growth from all of the business in the shithole states that is moving.

Posted by: Tom Servo

Also: the shitholes' primary industries seem to be arson and looting.

And you just can't build a future on that.


Unbelievable: So, as I mentioned above, the 33.1% growth rate is annulalized. That means, the single quarter of growth is multiplied by four to tell you how much we grew if this same rate of growth continued for a year.

This is literally how GDP is always reported -- taking the one quarter rate and multiplying by four to get an annualized figure.

When you read that a quarter's growth rate was 3.2%, that's the annualized figure. The actual number for the growth in just this quarter would be 0.8%.

But this is how it has always been reported.

Except now. Now the Washington Posts decides to, for the first time in history, report the GDP growth rate on a non-annualized basis, to make it look smaller.

However: The 31.4% contraction we saw in the second quarter was also annualized, or multiplied by four. The actual rate of contraction was around 7.5%.

So: Does the Washington Post reduce the second quarter's contraction in a consistent way, to compare apples with apples?

Answer: No, of course not. They claim that the growth this quarter was 7.4%, which of course barely compares to the second quarter's 31.4% contraction.

Un.

Fucking.

Believable.

22 Well, this is what happens with an artificial strangling of the economy.

There was nothing wrong with it.

There was a lot right with it.

The government forced an artificial shutdown, and most of the country lifted that, so we're just returning to where we were.

But, CA, NY, MI, and PA are still largely shut down.

This is without a couple of the largest economies in the US.

This represents real growth for the rest of the country.

57 And this is with essentially all sports shut down (most have no fans in attendance or 25% capacity), restaurants and bars in most states limited to 25% capacity with ridiculous "social-distancing" and mask-mandates in effect, air travel and hotel accommodations very limited, all concerts and mass-gathering events cancelled, etc.

It would be interesting to see the livelihood of the nation's small businesses. Because that was the big worry. That a large amount of small businesses were going to collapse, even with the government loans.

It would be interesting to see if the loans stopped the bleeding in that area or if small business success simply is not that important to the nation's GDP.

This is without a couple of the largest economies in the US.

This represents real growth for the rest of the country.

agreed, I was thinking about that myself. Earlier in the campaign slow Joe was talking about a K shaped recovery, without understanding what he was saying. I think he was trying to say the rich get richer, the poor get poorer, which is stupid.

but what IS happening could be described as a K shaped recovery as applied to different regions. Leftist shitholes are headed even further down - states that are opening up and allowing growth are not only getting their own natural growth, but also the growth from all of the business in the shithole states that is moving.

Trump is going to win Fla. by about 200,000 votes. the Dems cannibalized their election day turnout by pushing vote by mail. They had a 300,000 vote lead in early voting, but the Reps have been eating into that lead about 50,000 votes a day. By election day Rep turnout will outpace Dem in early voting, and Rep election day Turnout will exceed Dem by about 200,000. Florida is Trump's. Penn, Mich. and Wisc. are another story. Still looking for an inflection point.

41% of Trump supporters plan on voting on Election Day, per The Economist.

Only 16% of Biden supporters say the same.

Therefore, 84% of Biden's votes will have been cast before November 3.

Ds have cast only around 35M votes so far according to TargetSmart with 5 days to go."

I can do some math.

If Biden gets, let's say 45mm votes by midnight Monday, and that number represents 84% of the total vote he'll get, then Biden is looking at around 53mm votes.

If Trump gets, let's say 40mm votes by midnight Monday, and that number represents 59% of the total vote he'll get, then Trump is looking at around 68mm.

Re Tucker's missing documents: This thing has to be intel agencies. Only they have the means to do this in such a clean manner.

I'm sure they have moles working for all the major carriers, like they do just about all the big companies of any import.

There are legitimate reasons you'd want this. For example, suppose some spy managed to send something really really sensitive via UPS or FedEx. You'd want some means to get in there and be able to intercept it, or monkey around with it.

But power corrupts, and the Deep State is now using that nuclear level spying apparatus for domestic political purposes.

And this is why all these agencies need to be cleaned out and we start over.

So I think they've been brainwashed into this for a few specific reasons.

1. So they are as angry as possible - good for "mobilizing" and keeping up division

2. So they can carry on the Trump Cheated narrative until the next narrative comes along. If it's 4 years it's 4 years. If they need a special prosecutor and an investigation so be it.

169 Thankfully, the shock was synthetic and so the bounce was significant. But we need to finish reopening and get rid of this lockdown shit. Entire sectors are still in a lot of pain, and there has been massive employment disruption in those areas.

188 ace, to have any meaning, the mortality rate for C19 has to be age-stratified.

For healthy people under 50 - even under 60 - it is either same as flu, or, when one gets to the younger cohorts, far far far less a mortality threat than influenza.

This is one central fact that needs to begin every discussion.

The next one is that it is very unlikely that *any* "policies" or meaures, from masks to lockdowns, alter the final score, except that as one moves further up that scale, the collateral damage grows commensurately (economic loss, social damage, and yes excess deaths due to missed medical screenings and treatment, stress, drug abuse, and suicide).

All of this stuff since March was a RADICAL EXPERIMENT that the actual science and observational history indicated was pointless, a position so far completely validated by experience.

Trump's surprise win scared the pants off them. They became afraid that he might undo their "progress" towards complete subversion, and started throwing everything they could at him.

In doing so, they took off the mask and revealed their true selves for all to see - megalomaniacs with a messianic complex.

Their reaction is what is destroying them, and their efforts to circle the wagons and protect their criminal dealings have only called more attention to them.

240 "As long as the rest of the world does the same, currency swaps will keep
inflation under control. Welcome to Modern Monetary Theory."

a lot of the flood of money flows in to support markets, making the rich incredibly rich, and guaranteeing they keep getting richer by providing government insurance, underwritten by every citizen and their children.


Inflation may be kept in check, because the billionaires reinvest, so we get inflation in markets, maybe in housing, but they are not buying more food or more computers or cars. So most inflation in prices is low, though "hedonic adjustments" hide some real inflation. (e.g. base level car might cost twice as much, but they say there is no inflation, because new cars have twice as many cool new features ... this adjusts away a lot of inflation)


The lower half that are not carried along by the magic carpet of stocks, have to work or depend on charity and government for a little trickle down, as Romneys hedge funds extract wealth via corrupt stock leverage games.

These businesses have become the public square now, like it or not. After benefiting from decades of telecom infrastructure that were already quite regulated and subject to public purview, they must be subject to regulation themselves.

Twitter is not some lemonade stand or a local furniture store. It is a beneficiary of much public subsidy, and 230 itself is a gift granted by the government; now Twitter must "give back" to the public.

they see it, and they don't care. There is a contingent (I'm sure you know some) of people who are in Deathly Fear of the Corona, they think we are ALL Going to DIE! They think the entire Country should have been locked down, should STILL be locked down, that there should have been a national mask mandate, and that anybody who opposes them and opposes these ideas should be transported to a re-education camp. Fauci is their Patron Saint. he's their figurehead. Criticizing him just means that you are one of the people who need to get sent to the Re-Education camps.

Don't look for any deeper thoughts than this. They are deeply stupid people controlled by their own fear, you can't talk to them.

367 One thing to keep in mind when we talk about states that Trump "barely lost" (New Hampshire, Nevada) or "barely won" (Michigan, Pennsylvania)...

Look at the county by county maps that show different shades of red and blue for intensity (how big a candidate wins a county by). What you'll see are a lot of pink counties. Trump barely won in a lot of counties, which was enough to flip some states and almost flip others.

The reason those counties were pink is not because they didn't have a lot of potential GOP voters, it's because many GOP voters either didn't trust Donald Trump or were forgotten voters that had long-since rejected the fecklessness of Romney, the ineptitude of McCain, and the ideological polarization of GW Bush.

Those potential voters are being targeted by Trump's GOTV campaigns. They are being contacted, registered, and are ready to vote en mass.

This country is center-right. We're a land of normal people with cities run by fanatics and left wing baby eaters. All it takes is someone with the charisma, the drive, the populist mentality, the non-ideologue appeal, and most of all the record of accomplishment to bring those would-be voters to the polls.

New York is no different than anywhere else. It's a land of mostly normal, non-political people, and a city of whackos that the normies are tired of being embarrassed by. The same is true of Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, Oregon, California, Illinois, you name it.

And Donald J. Trump is the man of the moment to wake up the sleeping giant that is the "normal electorate."

It's way too late for some of them.

The New York Times just simply stopped polling a few weeks ago, leaving their final national poll at Biden +10.

This is a strategy to invalidate Trump's win. You don't do this if Biden eeks out a legitimate victory.

It will only work in the leftist Twittersphere, though.

One thing I expect to hear next week is the Left screaming that X number of mailed-out ballots were not received back in states A, B, C, D, and X is larger than Trump's vote margin over Biden in those states, so, there had to be...

Cheating!
Voter Suppression!
Russians!

So...
The results in States A, B, C, D are invalid!!!

Some people really like being told what to do. Pretty much everybody I know in CA will go along with anything if their friends are going along with it.

Hell, I was with an idiot lefty client yesterday who got the coof back in March. And there he is, wearing his mask. Seriously, WTF? Nothing would make me happier than telling people to GFO. I had it. I can't get it, I can't give it to you. Yet, I believe the CDC is saying even if you've had it, wear your mask, because... we said so, that's why.

These are the people that told us in no uncertain terms it wasn't airborne. Then, it was airborne. Then, it could hang in the air for days. Then weeks. Then it turned into the tardigrade of the virus world.

I guarantee you will see massive amounts of ballots after Election Day that are frauds and will throw that state into chaos. The fact they will be allowed with no postmark or any ballot integrity is perhaps the worst decision to come out of SCOTUS since Dred Scott.

422 342 CT your description is not accurate. The courts declared Whitmers EOs were invalid because they were unconstitutional. But the court did not address the health departments ability to regulate public businesses so they seamlessly picked up Whitmers Covid restrictions. The health department has the ability to shut down any public business for non compliance and masks space limitations etc are part of their regulations. Hence why people are still wearing masks in public here.

426 NM update:

Dems lead in all ballots has fallen 4k; now only lead by 46k.

2k less mail ballots than the day before; 2k more in person ballots than cast the day before.
D expanded their lead in mail, from yesterday's 100k to 104k.
R expanded their in person lead from yesterday's 60k to 68k.

50/37 split of 2016 independent gets D roughly an 18k lead.
Hillary won by 27k.
There are 3 more early voting days left; with Friday typically doubling the prior days.

It's going to be basically tied on election day with the dems having no more voters left "in reserve"

* "surprise" flips, incl. CO, not that much of a surprise, as many factors are at play that make such things quite possible

Still think Trump should do a western swing, one day (Saturday). NV morning rally, then a mega-rally in Orange County CA for House races, then CO on the way back east. Instead he'll be in MN/MI/WI/PA, but I think it would be worth a western swing-for-the-fence.

I've told the story before:

Most of the principal photography for Casablanca was wrapped when director Michael Curtiz asked Bogart to come in for one more scene.

Bogie didn't want to do it. "All you have to do is stand here," Curtiz said, "and nod."

"That's it?"

"That's it."


So Bogie came in, hit his mark, nodded and left.

It wasn't until he saw the movie that he realized the nod was for the band to play La Marseillaise.

I was pretty convinced Romney would win (and I think a lot of people here were too) and was looking at tea leaves like that there were people that didn't want to admit they were voting against First Black President, etc.

And I just remember those states coming in and having the life sucked out of me.

And just to show how wrong I usually am, I thought Hillary would probably win (but I always maintained the polls had VASTLY overstated things, which they did)

These are the people that told us in no uncertain terms it wasn't airborne. Then, it was airborne. Then, it could hang in the air for days. Then weeks. Then it turned into the tardigrade of the virus world.

493 but what IS happening could be described as a K shaped recovery as applied to different regions. Leftist shitholes are headed even further down - states that are opening up and allowing growth are not only getting their own natural growth, but also the growth from all of the business in the shithole states that is moving.

508 For everyone horrified by regulation, remember that everything in life is a trade-off. I wonder how many people would be willing to eliminate all regulation of any kind from the pharmaceutical industry. The aeronautical industry. Zoning regulations. Be honest. That will never happen. Ever.

The question is what level of regulation is prudent; what trade-off is acceptable. Perhaps some revised approach to big tech is needed. Eliminating 230 is hardly equivalent to turning big tech into the Soviet Ministry of Calculating Machine Industry.

I was pretty convinced Romney would win (and I think a lot of people here were too) and was looking at tea leaves like that there were people that didn't want to admit they were voting against First Black President, etc.

And I just remember those states coming in and having the life sucked out of me.

And just to show how wrong I usually am, I thought Hillary would probably win (but I always maintained the polls had VASTLY overstated things, which they did)

I've already voted, I just don't want to be "gutted" emotionally on Tuesday. I had prepared myself for a loss in 2016.

If this were a normal, fair and straightforward election Trump would win in numbers never seen in this country. But when I see shit like that Project Veritas video of TX election rigging, I get worried. I mean, this one stupid bitch is claiming she's created tens of thousands of ballots. That's just her and her "team" in San Antonio. What about the rest of the state?

They're pulling out all the stops, and don't even care about doing it in broad daylight. They know they're not going to go to jail, which makes it even worse. This has gone beyond the mail-in states. The possibility of losing TX to voter fraud makes me physically ill. If Biden won fair and square I'd say we deserved it and pray for the Rapture and/or SMOD.

541 They are not political nonentities, all large businesses are political. That is reality. So either their politics serve the people well or they serve us poorly.

If you regulate them, the best case scenario is that the industry will capture the regulatory authority, all accompanied by further expansion of the administrative state, which will ensure that no one is ever accountable to the public in any way other than the kind of periodic shakedowns regulatory authorities periodically run. Or you could just repeal 230, resulting in this special group of publishers being treated the same way all publishers historically have been.

They can probably track which center it came to, easily enough, and find out who was working that night. But that's it.

575 For everyone horrified by regulation, remember that everything in life is a trade-off. I wonder how many people would be willing to eliminate all regulation of any kind from the pharmaceutical industry. The aeronautical industry. Zoning regulations. Be honest. That will never happen. Ever.

The question is what level of regulation is prudent; what trade-off is acceptable. Perhaps some revised approach to big tech is needed. Eliminating 230 is hardly equivalent to turning big tech into the Soviet Ministry of Calculating Machine Industry.

Yes. This is a good first step. However not necessarily the last. Regulatory capture is real and not ever going away. Again, the question is one of trade-offs.

629 I'd be fine eliminating the FDA.

I think it does far less than people realize. When Dems are in power, it is traditionally staffed by scientifically illiterate crackpots who mercilessly shakedown the industry. When the GOP is in power, it is traditionally staffed by industry insiders who give as free rein as possible to industry. We're talking at the policy level; people who come and go with administrations. Then there's a cadre of day-to-day folks who stay no matter what; they're really just bureaucrats with fancy letters behind their names and generally, as one would expect, not the brightest, because if they were they could make more money outside government.

And even when the FDA does good work, it's usually lost on the public. Most people cannot read an FDA label in an informed, intelligent way and blindly rely on whatever their doc says (and docs vary in quality pretty dramatically).

If Newsom/Garcetti/Breed/Liccardo and the rest of the blue ticks actually enforced the laws they're inflicting on us on their pet illegals, the state would flip red in a heartbeat. But as I keep complaining, they've been totally exempt since this started. Their bars and restaurants operate as if nothing was different, and are completely ignored by LE.

I just saw 50+ in a park in downtown San Jose having a BBQ party, 5 generations, almost none wearing masks. They were impossible to miss at one of the larger parks in SJ, plenty of cops saw them. But one family at one picnic bench off in the corner? You're fucked.

I'm pretty sure that the Black Hebrew Israelites are a significant presence in the "BLM Protests". You know the crazy bastards who say they are the real Jews and that Yaweh Ben Yaweh was the second coming. The guys that were yelling at the Covington kids.

One of them is a Democratic congressman from Southern Oregon whose been in office since 1987, in a 50-50 district.

He's won easily through lots of interactions with voters, and being a "moderate" (i.e. he is allowed by Pelosi to be conservative on unimportant votes).

He's normally gotten 10-20% of the Republican vote since is "a good guy".

Well, this time around, he's running against the guy who overcame the terrorist on the train to Paris (helps to be the hero of a Clint Eastwood movie), not the usual perennial Republican candidate who always loses; the University of Oregon isn't in session; and he voted to impeach President Trump, which has destroyed the "good guy" image he had among many Republicans.

702 More and more polls are solidifying behind Biden pulling out a victory in Florida. I find it hard to believe but you can't ignore the ability of the American people to reject peace and prosperity.
