Not the 1930s


Brian Wesbury, chief economist at First Trust, puts the economy in perspective.  In the 1930s:

"Real GDP fell for four consecutive years (and by a total of more than 25%) between 1929 and 1933.  Unemployment reached 25%.  Nothing today even comes close.  GDP is now rising and we expect unemployment has now peaked."
