And finally, exports are barely up because we continue to debase the dollar. Prices have risen steadily, commodities are up, foreclosures keep increasing, etc. This is a depression.

While this doesn't mean that things are great, it means that things are improving. There are many economist who now say there is almost no chance of a double dip recession happening and that unemployment will slowly come down over the next couple of years.
These are the same moronic mainstream economists who suggest throwing money at the problem will actually fix the problem.

So a more accurate statement is that the economy has leveled off to some degree and is slowly improving.
That's not what the numbers say.
