4 Things That Were Supposed To Happen By 2016 Because Obama Was Reelected

[AceRothstein]

I'm still waiting for all of the Racial Healing, International Respect, and Honesty-Ethics-Transparency that he promised.

Just sayin'.

So is the 90+ million out of the work force

Waiting for silly asses like you to stop lying. You are simply counting everyone above the age of 16 that does not have a full time job as unemployed. That would include high school and college students, stay at home mothers, retired and disabled people. Stunningly dishonest of you.

Reading comprehension is clearly above your pay grade, bub. She said "Out Of The Work Force", not unemployed.

Why even bring that number up? It is basically useless and there's a reason nobody ever brought it up until unemployment started going down a few years ago. It is an intellectually dishonest way to criticize Obama.

B'loney. The Labor Force Participation Rate has CRATERED during the Obama era. It is a perfectly valid criticism to point this out, and to question how how longer Big Government can continue to teeter on the brink as the ratio of Payers to Parasites collapses.

It was predicted to go down 15 years ago. Anyone pretending this is a surprise is a retard or a hack, possibly both.

 

[AceRothstein]

Not to mention unemployment is over 8%

Or do you actually believe the U2 numbers as much as they've been corrupted to paint as rosy a picture as possible?

U6 is a far better judge.

U6 numbers are used by those that oppose the administration. U2 numbers by those who support it. However, U2 is the mostly cited measure of unemployment by economist and financial writers. It doesn't matter which measure you use as long as you're consistent.

U6 which includes unemployment for almost any reason is always much larger than U2 and thus more dramatic. U6 is currently 9.9% down from it's high of 17.4% in Oct. 2009 and is approximately where it was when Obama took office.

All those U charts, graphs and statistics are a joke. The best indicator of unemployment is the WE factor. WE: If they ain't Workin', they ain't Eatin'. See how simple that is?

If that's the case, I don't known anyone who has been unemployed for around 4 years. Guess unemployment is 0% by your method.

Oh no! Real unemployment is around 17%. How the Libs whittled it down to 5% is a mystery.

LOL

What an illiterate boob you are. The biggest increases in non-participation are among young people and middle aged men. That is hardly good news for the economy. But it's what happens when a President declares war on fossil fuels and grossly expands the reach of government into every sector of the economy and private life.

2016 just began....give Ears time to phuck it up

More and more young people are going to college. A 30% plus increase over the last 15 years.

Lame lame lame. The ones who manage to graduate are having trouble finding jobs, especially ones that enable them to pay off their enormous Obama Loans for crappy gender and skin color studies degrees.

 

[Arianrhod]

so it was up to the government to pick there plans at a higher cost?

No.

Is this a good thing? It would be if large numbers of them were not getting useless degrees.

What makes you think large numbers of college graduates have useless degrees?

Do you guys just make shit up?

Don't have to. Life is stranger than fiction. Pick a college, any of them and I'll illustrate.

 

[Clementine]

Obama failed to implement his agenda, whats your point?

Yup. Once the voters put all those Repubs in Washington, Obama had to rely on his pen and phone. Slowed him down.

No REAL unemployment is 5%. How the CON$ jack it up to 17% is a lie.

The Labor Force Participation Rate has CRATERED during the Obama era.

BULLSHIT!
Boomers are retiring in record numbers during the Obama recovery. Adjusting for retirees the LPR has held steady since Clinton.

See chart 4:

1. Gas was supposed to cost $6.05 per gallon.
In March 2012, on the floor of the United States Senate, Mike Lee (R-UT) predicted that if Obama was reelected gas would cost $6.05 per gallon by the start 2015. Lee said that gas prices would rise 5 cents for every month Obama was in office, ultimately reaching $6.60 per gallon.

Lee was not alone. Newt Gingrich, running for the GOP nomination, predicted that if Obama was reelected he would push gas to “$10 a gallon.”

2. Unemployment was supposed to be stuck at over 8%
In September 2012, Mitt Romney predicted that if Obama is reelected “you’re going to see chronic high unemployment continue four years or longer.” At the time, the unemployment rate was 8.1%and had been between 8.1% and 8.3% for the entire year.

What would breaking out of “chronic high unemployment” look like in a Romney presidency? Romney pledged that, if elected, he could bring the unemployment rate down to 6% by January 2017.

3. The stock market was supposed to crash
Immediately after Obama won reelection in November 2012, many commenters predicted that the stock market was toast.

Charles Bilderman, the author of the “Intelligent Investing” column at Forbes, wrote that the “market selloff after Obama’s re-election [was] no accident,” predicting “stocks are dropping with no bottom in sight.” Bilderman said that the policies the Obama administration would pursue in his second term would “crash stocks.”

Donald J. Trump

✔@realDonaldTrump
The stock market and US dollar are both plunging today. Welcome to @BarackObama’s second term.

On Bloomberg TV, investor Marc Faber predicted that, because of Obama’s reelection, the stock market would drop at least 20%.

4. The entire U.S. economy was supposed to collapse
Rush Limbaugh predicted that “the country’s economy is going to collapse if Obama is re-elected.” Limbaugh was confident in his prediction: “There’s no if about this. And it’s gonna be ugly. It’s gonna be gut wrenching, but it will happen.”

CREDIT: RUSHLIMBAUGH.COM

The economic freefall would begin, according to Limbaugh, because “California is going to declare bankruptcy” and Obama would force states like Texas to “bail them out.” California currently has a $4 billion budget surplus.

Limbaugh added, “I know mathematics, and I know economics. I know history. I know socialism, statism, Marxism, I know where it goes. I know what happens at the end of it.”

Limbaugh said the economic apocalypse could take “a year and a half, two years, three years.” It’s been three years and two months since Limbaugh’s prediction.

There is probably a parallel universe where conservative pundits pronouncements come to pass, but it sure isn't this one.

You're talking to a Republican Party that still believes Carter spent more than Reagan, and Clinton spent more than 43.

Obama's job growth has outpaced Reagan
Obama Outperforms Reagan On Jobs, Growth And Investing

Obama's deficit reduction has outpaced Reagan
The GOP’s entire identity is based on a lie: How the Obama presidency exposed Republican deficit delusions

This is why the Republican Party keeps their voters sequestered in the FOX-Rush bubble - because their entire party rests on a lie. Of course they condition voters not to trust the main stream media. With all these lies, what choice do they have?
