Certain statistics are manipulated by whatever administration is in power. For instance, I believe in 2008, they no longer reported M3(money supply). Now yes, technically speaking(as in GDP growth), we're not in a depression. But when you factor in everything I've already stated, plus the fact that the growth comes from stimulus plans and companies restocking inventory, you get a depression.
