Fox news is at the boat show this morning and interviewed the show manager who went on to explain that sales were up 20% on the first day alone from previous shows and he sees little to no effect of a bad economy. When asked by Doug Meehan "are people really buying boats here or are they just here to kick the tires?" he assured Doug that there is a whole lot of buying going on...

Truth or Propaganda?

Will post again tonight after the show...

A guy I know at one of the displays said "If the money spent this past weekend is any indication, the recession is ending soon. I think people are just sick of doing nothing."
