The US Economy Is Shrinking

RUSH: You see the stories on the US economy, the first quarter. I predicted this.  I predicted there'd be a revision. What was the original report of the first quarter?  Two percent, .2% growth or something. I said it's not gonna be that when they revise it. They're gonna revise it three or four months from now when everybody's forgotten it.  Here it goes.  The US economy fell.  It went backwards.  It slowed down, 0.7% growth rate.  That's not growth, folks.  That's a contraction.
