Trickle down economics has proven to be smoke screen. Bush's tax cuts pitifully created 4.6 jobs per million dollar cut. That's it. In Obama's first 4 years, twice as many jobs were created than in all of Bush's 8. According to the CBO, Obama's stimulus alone created over 2 million jobs that still exist to this day.

Obama’s Numbers, October Update

Here is a non partisan thorough look at what the stimulus accomplished which is staggering. It literally saved the country from another depression.

Was the Obama Stimulus a Success or a Failure? - NPQ - Nonprofit Quarterly

Here is WHY Obama's stimulus worked:

Extended Federal Unemployment Benefits and the Economy

I just don't understand what republicans have to show for. Obama's tax cut for the middle class was the biggest since Reagan. Seriously what has any republican president since Reagan done that has benefitted the country as a whole?

It seems as though all the average joe republicans want to hear are flowery speeches about freedom and warm apple pie. They don't want to hear the truth which is that republicans have nothing to offer.

Extended Federal Unemployment Benefits and the Economy

Thanks for the hilarious link. She cracks me up!

And yet you can't explain why she is wrong.

Sure I can, if I can stop laughing long enough.
How many errors should I point out?

As many as you can handle. Quit stalling.

Here's the best one:

Reductions in the tax rate actually hurts the economy. That's because every dollar in lost tax revenue only creates 59 cents in economic growth.

Creating growth of 59 cents while saving taxpayers $1 hurts the economy? ROFLMAO!!!
Of course for a socialist, more freedom, less money in the hands of the government and more money in the hands of the people is a bad think. So I can understand why she is against it.

Are you saying Americans got to keep millions more of their own earnings AND jobs were created?

That's awesome!!! Let's do that some more!!!

Umm those millions saved were primarily the rich's money. Also, those cuts greatly contributed to our national debt.

Umm those millions saved were primarily the rich's money.

Define the rich. What level of income?
Define primarily, as a percent of total money saved, if you can.
Thanks!

So you don't know who his tax cuts were for?

He cut taxes for everyone.
Got those definitions yet?

[Toddsterpatriot]

Republicans are getting elected less and less because their tired two-tier plank that hasn't changed in a generation,

1) deregulate [let polluters run wild & workplace violations go unchecked]

2) shower tax cuts on the already wealthy whilst redistributing taxpayer-wealth to defense contractors for their ill thought-out foreign adventures

I know, just awful!
Don't forget, resisting Obama.
That'll probably win back the Senate.

Nothing has been proven other than liberal policies which are anti business pr tax, pro big government have scuttled our economy. You can shit can the lib blog crap praising Obama for any alleged job creation.
Oh anyone that claims expanding unemployment benefits stimulates the economy is part of the Chamber Band playing on the Titanic.

I feel the republican party should be the party of efficiency and work. There's no place for libertrianism as it doesn't work in the real world.

Revenues would sky rocket!

Perhaps Republicans keep getting elected because many people see that all Democratic policies seem to do as keep the poor where they are. Democrats seem very good at pushing policies that give the poor the basics but don't do anything to get them out of poverty the cynical out there might think that is so they can continue to claim to be the party of the poor and maintain that part of their voter base.

The only jobs Obama created were government jobs paid for by confiscated taxpayer funds. Now we have double the useless government drones than we had during the Bush administration. The median income for a typical middle class family dropped 7% since Obama took office.

No 2 million private jobs were created. The proof is in the links. Try reading them.

Those links are horseshit. In neither link is any information that defines a "job"...
All we have to look at is the aggregate number of people actually classified as "working".
It is 20 million less than 10 years ago. Next, the Obama admin in it's parasitic undying hunger for political points and power decides the BLS figures are making it look bad. So they change the parameters.
People collecting unemployment are considered "working".
tell us some more jokes.
