Employment rates mean little, the median salary is down since 2000. The stock market is high because everyone is taking money out of housing and putting it into the market. Plus, it's not a huge accomplishment, it was bound to grow their eventually. I mean it took them a week to go from 10,000 to 11,000 in the 90's. And gas is gas, it's always higher in the summer. It'll go up around Thanksgiving and Christmas like it does every year.
