This Principal's request for aid for one of the school's families carries more weight than any news conference or article by economic experts. I'd add, that the same people trying to convince us that the economy is better are trying to convince of the perception of the American People on the economy. I'd say, people have eyes. People may watch television or read the paper, but at some point they leave their homes and interact with the real world, and that's when reality trumps spin.
