  • On September 20th, 2010, an article appeared on MarketWatch that started out with this paragraph: “WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) — The U.S. recession that began in December 2007 ended in June 2009, making the 18-month slump the longest since the Great Depression, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research.” This morning, I came across some numbers…
