Hmmm the individual in millions (light gray) has yet to reach the 2004-05 levels and deficits are piling up! That does not looks good.

Question however bart, how come the "corporate in millions" (Light gray - bottom graph) looks like a bad case of lie detector test i.e. up sharply then down sharply repeatedly?

Annecdotally, I've noticed the traffic is starting to get worse.

No. The morning commute seems to be busier.

I have two jobs as well: a regular day job and an evening job which consists of learning how to keep what I earned during my day job.

It seems to be due to corporations only paying quarterly, and about 15% of them seem to have a fiscal year that's not aligned with the fiscal year of the government so the payments jump around a lot. There's almost always a big jump in December too.

Me too! Traffic has gotten much worse. However, parking seems the same. I surmise it is the Obama money coming in for road work & other projects that is slowing things down, not more cars.

My morning and evening NYC subway commute has seemed appreciably lighter in the past couple months.

Very nice. Just started a 2nd job yesterday :D Happy as hell to be fortunate to have 1, let alone 2 in this shitty economy.
