Nice article, not spam at all!

If everyone I know is working full time, the economy is fine.

If I am working full time, but you are unemployed, it's a recession.

If I am unemployed, it's CLEARLY a full-blown depression!!! :D

Valid!! Don't we all measure the economy based on our own context? If our perception isn't the best measurement, then I don't know how else to measure it.
