Two Things About The "New Normal"...

1) It is Not Normal
2) It Sucks

I was telling my readers, all 20 of them, that someting akin to this would prevail all of last year.

I was talking to a guy last week who is not a CEO but might as well be, he does the actual running at a company where the CEO is really just a titular head. This guy hires and fires in 100 employee chunks. He said business could justify some hiring - modest but some nonetheless - but he won't do it...yet. He said, paraphrasing, "We've held out this long, might as well hold out a few more months until after the election. No point in handing the current Washington crowd any credit for anything positive. This sentiment is widely held."
