The Great Recedepression of 2009 might be chewing up many of us, but readers of New Orleans CityBusiness seem to be rolling in clover -- clover as in four-leaf hundred-dollar bills. In the publication's daily newsletter this afternoon, the paper published the results of a poll asking "How is the economy affecting your vacation plans this summer?"
Gambit posed a similar question a couple of weeks back, and this is what our readership had to say (obviously in between mouthfuls of ramen and cat food):
9% - leaving the country
40% - leaving the city
9% - staycation at home
42% - what vacation?
Not so City Biz readers. The answer "No effect, because I am doing really well this recession" was chosen by 100% of their respondents:

how many people took citybiz's survey? surely not a statistically significant sample.
I'm sure only one person voted on that one. Their choices of answers to these questions are asinine anyhow.
I think what happened was Kevin posted the image of the poll right after it was activated and sent out on our Daily Update. Since it's only an image, it won't reflect updated voting. Visit www.neworleanscitybusiness.com for updated totals and to cast your vote.
