Same sh*t, different day. This bunch never expects what's happening, to happen.
And as usual, the economy is worse than whatever they "expected". Not once has it ever turned out better than they expected.
After three years, don't you think they would have started noticing the pattern, and make a few adjustments if nothing else?
Remember, these are the people who believe they can run the economy much better than the people who actually ARE the economy - working Americans.

Jobless Claims, Inflation Rise, Manufacturing Gets Weaker

Applications for unemployment benefits continued to rise in the past week, while inflation pushed higher and a key manufacturing index weakened.
The weekly jobless claims number, which is closely watched as an indicator for employment trends, unexpectedly rose 11,000 to 428,000, well ahead of estimates of 411,000.
The consumer price index, meanwhile, gained 0.4 percent when including volatile food and energy prices, after an increase of 0.5 percent in July. The so-called core CPI, though, gained 0.2 percent, which was in line with expectations.
Consumers paid more for a range of goods and services last month, pushing up inflation and squeezing Americans' purchasing power.
