an tSionna: Seven Optimistic Economic Charts

In the "Things are Getting Better" Department, I urge you to go read this post over at Quartz.com.  It's too long for me to put up here so it's better to go review the original.  The article puts up seven charts that show how the economy has gotten better.   A few of these charts {jobs, autos and unemployment} are statistics we've pointed out before.  A few review other data and themes.  Anyway it's hard not to walk away from the data feeling better about things.
