Good point. The massive economic collapse happened right after the Democrats took control of Congress. Things were going pretty good up until then. Of course the corrupt MSM doesn't report this because it's always all about cheering for the Democrats and bashing the Republicans with them. You can't trust the MSM at this point. The collapse began as soon as the Democrats took control of things. This is fact.
Not to mention the first year the dems were in control they lived under a budget created by a republican congress.

Are you trying to say that tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% of Americans do NOT create jobs????

Yes.
I would also hazard to say it probably cost Americans jobs. Most of the people targetted by the tax cut are CEOs which jump from company to company. Since they are pressured to show good results over a short term, and get a great deal of compensation for doing so, they fired lots of people to show profit. Then they collected their bonuses and moved on before the real damage was apparent. Not only that, many of them came up with complex schemes, like credit swaps and derivatives, to make it seem like they were wildly successful. When in fact, what they did was to damage the world wide economy in some very real and awful ways.
The financial crisis was the result of years of bad programs regarding privatizing profit and socializing risk in the mortgage market. Both parties share blame - but the Dems efforts to protect Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac make them the guiltier faction.

The heartbreak of economic illiteracy on parade ^^^
Most people targeted by the tax increase are not CEOs. The top 2% comprise over 2M filers. The ratio of CEOs in this mix is a minority - more are small businesses.
