(Reuters) - Three flight attendants and a number of passengers were injured after a United Airlines flight encountered severe turbulence as it approached a Montana airport, an airline spokesman said on Tuesday.

Regardless of the nit-picking in the mainstream media about whether we're in a "recession" or a "downturn" or a "recovery", for the American public, we're living in a straight-up Depression. There's 10% unemployment, and many of those lucky enough to hang on to their jobs are seeing their hours and wages cut back. Foreclosure rates are sky-high and people who are managing to hold it together stay up at nights in fear that the bottom is going to fall out any day now. Our Village idiots seem to take arguments about how it's more important to avoid taxing the rich than to keep our roads paved and our lights on. But Americans know that things are bleak.
