Zone1 Hey, everyone! Newbie here with a question to the forum vets.

[Moonglow]

I did that though! I even posted the thing above that got me banned? I'm swear I'm not trolling here. Can you tell me the part of the post that got me banned? My only goal here is to figure out why I was banned so that I can go back to Politics and make my post (edited so it isn't bannable) to start a discussion.

Post-pandemic inflation was due to supply shocks, not fed policy. But is this really the place for this discussion? I'd like to create my thread over in Politics, but doing so last night got me banned.

Probably not.

I have no idea what got you banned. I don't even know what name you were under when you got banned.

You have to have a link, put in a minimum of two sentences related to the topic, and don't make it a flame thread.

I did that. This was the post that got me banned (below)

GDP growth is currently at 5.2% - historically high. Unemployment (U3) is currently at 3.7% - historically low. The stock market is currently at an all time high - historically...record breaking. Pandemic-related (supply shock) inflation is now getting under control as a result of interest rate hikes from the central bank. Economists are now saying we will get a soft landing out of inflation as opposed to a recession. Here in FL where I live, there are 176 infrastructure projects queued up and backed by $8.1B in funding from Biden's historic infrastructure bill to build and repair roads, bridges, public transport, ports, airports, clean water, etc. This will ensure economic prosperity for the next several years during the building phase at the very least.



And yet if I talk to any of my republican voter friends, most tend to disregard all of the economic data mentioned above and instead declare - without any supporting facts or data - that we're actually in the worst economy in 50 years. So with that, I'm curious what republicans voters (I'm including libertarians here as well) here on this board think about the economy?



Here are the facts one more time. 5.2% GDP. 3.7% unemployment. Record high stock market. Solid growth in output. Solid stability in the labor market. Solid value in investment. And as things like the Infrastructure bill and the CHIPs Act play out, there are solid economic prospects for the future for years to come.



I'm going to add in some historical jobs numbers as well, since Joe Biden was also VP in the Obama administration. Quite literally all private sector job growth in the 21st century happened under democratic presidents. The numbers below are from BLS databases (B tables on seasonally adjusted private sector jobs).



Clinton - 2000 to 2001: 1.4M jobs created

W Bush - 2001 to 2009: 373k jobs lost

Obama - 2019 to 2017: 11.8M jobs created

Trump - 2017 to 2021: 2.1M jobs lost

Biden - 2021 to 2023: 12.8M jobs created



GDP expansion and the labor market are some of the most commonly cited data points used by economists to explain the economy, and they always seem to do quite well under democrats, but no so much under republicans. So there is the data for the 21st century.



Putting all of this together, what do republican/libertarian voters of this site make of all of this and Bidenomics? I'm interested in hearing about how you think the economy is doing today, and what data it is you're looking at that leads you to that conclusion. Also curious in what you have to say about the current state of GDP, the labor market, and the stock market. Also curious about what you think about jobs results in the 21st century.

Well, now you're good to go in politics.

OK. I'm about to try creating a thread over there again. Fingers crossed.

Looks like an over achiever.

O.K., let's see if I've got this right. The post in question was a long-winded paean to an old dotard crafted in such a way as to invest in him a sense of sagacious leadership, when the reality of the situation is that he doesn't even know what day it is.

Was that it? If so, it is a shame it was taken down because I always rather enjoy the pieces people post from the Babylon Bee.

 

[marvin martian]

Is it that my original banned post was too wordy? Is there a word limit to posts that gets you banned? As in, anything beyond XXX words is bannable?

Your OP reads like a Biden campaign bot wrote it.

I read through the guidelines, but I still don't see where I violated any rules

Welcome to our world.

I suggest you first look at the regulations and guidelines for the board. It may save you from getting
banned.

Hell, i know the rules, but sometimes my passion gets the better of me, when i see a dumbass Democrap (But i repeat myself) saying something stupid, which is very frequent on this board, as the OP has proven his stripes.

Not that Pete Buttplug and the Californication dock workers strike had any reason for a supply issue.. Funny how the Marxists always forget what happened in the past...

 

[Votto]

Seems they just don't like you. Can't like everybody.

That can't be the reason since you are still here.

 

[petro]

Hey, everyone! As the title says, I'm new here with a question for the forum vets. How do I post here without getting banned

Stick to the Taunting Zone.

Still a couple rules there, but more of a free zone and more free thinkers exist there.

Upstairs is....
Well, Welcome to the Jungle

 

[strollingbones]
