Good economic article

Highlights the last three swing periods, the 60's/70's; the 80's/90's and the post Clinton era.
For those wishing for some insight, it is not too long a read and well worth your time.
Quote from Cypress:
"Scientists don't use "averages". Maybe armchair supertools on message boards ascribe some meaning to "averages" between two random data points. And maybe clueless amatuers "draw a straight line" through two random end data points to define a "trend". Experts don't.
They use mean annual and five year means in trend analysis. Don't tell me I have to explain the difference to you. "
