Just in time for Thanksgiving, BMI Director Dan Gainor stopped by ‘Fox and Friends' to remind everyone that the economy is not as bad as people think, and that despite what the media said about your Thanksgiving dinner, it wasn't that bad.

"If you look at the inflation-adjusted number, it [Thanksgiving dinner] is actually 9 percent cheaper over the last 20 years," Gainor said.

BMI has focused recently on the media's doom and gloom predictions of the economy and released a study on the way debt is portrayed by the mainstream media.

 Who in their right mind

 Who in their right mind would think the economy is bad?  Go into any store and you see people spending the hell out of a "bad economy".  Good Lord how is it that all these Chicken Littles get an audience?

 

They just don't let good

They just don't let good news deter them. Even with a good start on the Christmas shopping season, they are pessimistic. I predicted by Christmas the headline will be "Record Spending Despite Crashing Economy!"
