It’s gotta be C—seems like every time I turn on the news, someone’s waving that $400 stat around! I had to laugh at A, though. If small businesses are anything like my neighbor’s garage sale operation, the plan goes as far as “hope it doesn’t rain.” Now, if only the Fed would interview folks who have a cellar filled with canned green beans, maybe those numbers would look different!
