"In terms of his data, the economy is far too complex to cherry pick a couple of variables and points in time and draw a conclusion. He makes this mistake over and over. It’s as if he thinks no other variables have changed since the 1950s."

If you think the economy is in such great shape, how do you go about showing that? Certainly, you don't cherry pick some stats to demonstrate that?

And for that matter, the state of the economy is not the point of the article, nor is the article predicting a collapse or anything of that nature. You injected that into this thread, because you didn't read the article first.

The article's purpose is to show that current aggregate numbers of dollar-based wealth are not reflective of reality.
