Social Security now seen to run permanent deficits.
Well ahead of schedule.

Foreclosure activity up across most US metro areas.
“The foreclosure crisis is getting worse as high unemployment and lackluster job prospects force homeowners in an increasing number of U.S. metropolitan areas into dire financial straits.” Hmmm…didn’t they hear our Dear Leader say that we have “broken the back of the recession”?

In other news, the government chocolate ration is being raised from 30 grams to 25 grams.
