...just stop.

Take out housing for the first 5 years of Bush 43. Take out the tech sector during Clinton's time. Take out military growth under Reagan. Take out the savings and loan crisis under Bush 41. What do you get? A different picture.

If the economy grew last quarter, it grew. If you're looking for text book health in every sector, go take an economics class and stay there because that's not how the real world works.
