Weakening of economic recovery?

The FED says there is a weakening of the economic recovery. Well, I feel that we never came out of our recession. Sadly, our gov told us all that we were fine and that prosperity was just around the corner. Do you still believe our gov? How much more evidence is necessary. Things keep getting much worse.

What we need is a lie detector to be turned on. It would flash red every time a politician tells us one more wopper. Stock market is manipulated and then some. People, we need to wake up.
