Prosperity is roaring. Stock markets have not seen three down days in a row for two years. GDP sets new record highs with each report. National unemployment is at record lows. By every national measure, these are happy days.And yet ...Food pantries and soup kitchens report new records as well, and not just the perennially poor. States are exhausting their unemployment funds. Factories are closing and those states with effective monitoring programs report rising unemployment. Local governments are closing recreation centers and implementing hiring freezes to avoid tax increases. Out of public view, cities and counties are even replacing their 911 workers with new robotic call center machines.At some point, the disconnect between the national picture and the local can no longer be reconciled, and the blame games begin, soon descending into national violence.How long before the true picture becomes clear? When the truth is revealed, how resilient are we?What If They Lied (just a little)? chronicles a time of deception, collusion, discovery, integrity, and redemption. Do you believe in our economics numbers? Do you believe the authorities? What if they lied (just a little)?
