Vice President Joe Biden had this to say today about whether there's a "depression" in America:

"The unemployed are in real trouble," Biden said. "My grandpa used to say, from Scranton, he’d say, ‘Joe, when the guy in Dunmore - the next town over – when the guy in Dunmore is out of work, it’s an economic slowdown. When your brother-in-law is out of work, it’s a recession. When you’re out of work, it’s a depression. It’s a depression for millions and millions of Americans."

But the last bit is particularly curious since it sounds an awful lot like something President Ronald Reagan said.

"A recession is when your neighbor loses his job," Reagan said during the 1980 presidential campaign. "A depression is when you lose yours. And recovery is when Jimmy Carter loses his."

Neither Joey or Barry have an original thought between them.... unless It's a Big F*****G deal that they found the 57th state.
