Consumer confidence has quite a bit to do with the economic growth/stagnation of a Country.
You do not see consumer confidence, when the President is not willing to make the correct economic policy.
Bush made the correct economic choices, consumer confidence kept the economy afloat, after 911. Tax cuts, raised tax revenue.
Barry's economic policies do not instill much consumer confidence, so the economy is stagnated...
Thanks for reminding us Kola.
Anybody taken a look at food price inflation lately?
The all-items Consumer Price Index (CPI), a measure of economy-wide inflation, rose 0.6 percent from February to March and is 1.5 percent above the March 2013 level. The CPI for all food increased 0.3 percent from February to March, increased 0.3 percent from January to February, and is now 1.7 percent above the March 2013 level.

.6, in a month? What does that work out to, per annum?
