Obama Administration created more jobs in one year than Republicans created in eight

PolitiFact Ohio | Sherrod Brown touts job growth during Clinton presidency vs. Bush?s jobs record



1.08 million jobs in EIGHT YEARS !

And the Republicans claim they can do a better job than the Democrats???

See how easily you are fooled by spin?

You must be quite embarrased right now.

What is the spin?

Republicans are claiming they would do better in creating jobs than Obama is doing. The record shows they managed to create a measly 1.08 million jobs over eight years.

They are proposing the same policies they used before....why should we expect better results?

Hey dude, its not the Federal Governments job to create jobs. Stay out of the way and it will happen.

They can't do better, Democrats can't do better, government is the problem;not the solution and the economy will grow sometimes in spite of government such as the Dot Com bubble, it will grow too fast because of government such as the bubbles caused by artificially low interest rates and it can't heal because of government, get government out of the way, let the cards fall where they will and ;had that been done; chances are good that we'd be coming out of the recession by now.

See the 1921 recession in my sig on how to NOT do anything will do more to help.:cool:

CBO finds 3.7M jobs created by stimulus - The Hill's On The Money

Imagine that!

Republicans took over a strong economy with a budget surplus and only managed to create 1 million jobs while they were in power.

Obama took over in the worst recession in 70 years and created 3 million jobs

A report by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office shows the Recovery Act has increased the number of workers by between 1.2 million and 2.8 million. The CBO also projects that 3.7 million jobs could be attributed to the stimulus by the end of September.

Just so we are absolutely clear.... The only jobs that any government creates are government jobs - federal employees. Government is NOT responsible for creating jobs. Government is responsible for keeping the economy stable and create good conditions for business.

You think Obama's done that? No doubt you do. But you're an idiot.

LOL!

leftwinger buys ANYTHING said by any entity provided that it glorifies his deity, the Obamessiah!

:rofl:

In the interim, maybe "rightwinger," the poseur with the false username, would give some honest thought (unlikely for obvious reasons, of course) to the FACT that Presidents (whether Republican and sane or liberal Democratics and insane) do not "create" jobs. They are incapable of such things.

They do not cause the seas to rise or fall, either. Fucking Presidents. Not one Godly power in the entire lot of 'em. :lol:

They may take lots of blame (some of it earned) and they may try to take lots of credit (little of it earned), but the truth is: they are just big old administrators with some perks and some additional powers (like being "Commander in Chief").

But Presidents don't create jobs (well, maybe they do hire a dick-weed press secretary now and again). They MAY have some influence on economic POLICIES that influence the ability of the private markets to "create" jobs. Like, President Bush DID seek the lowering o f taxes that leads to economic growth. And yet, no President has ever raised OR lowered taxes, for that matter. Who woulda thunked it?

What do you do? Not read other posts?
I will lay it out for you.

Clinton was creditied with the dot com jobs....they were millions...and not real jobs
Bush was debited with the loss of the dot com jobs...not policy fault...dot com bubble burst
Bush did not have a "job creation" agenda.
Yet despite millions dot com jobs lost, he netted out over 1 million jobs gained without the need or policy to create jobs. We had normal unemployment

Obama spent a trillion dollars tro create 3 million jobs....estimate is 166K for a 50K job.

Creating jobs at a cost to the taxpayer of 166K per job and a net loss to the taxpayer of 110K per job when you have 10% unemployment is not difficult to do.
A monkey can do it.

And unemployment barely budged.

You believed trhe spin of the numbers.
 
PolitiFact Ohio | Sherrod Brown touts job growth during Clinton presidency vs. Bush?s jobs record

Number of jobs as of January, 1993, a week before Clinton took office: 109.725 million.
Number of jobs as of Jan. 2001, a week before Clinton left office: 132.469 million
Net Gain under Clinton: 22.7 million jobs.


Now for Bush, who succeeded Clinton in the White House. As already noted, the nation had 132.469 million jobs as he was taking office.

Number of jobs on Jan. 12, 2009, a week before Bush left office: 133.549 million.
Net gain under Bush: 1.08 million jobs.

1.08 million jobs in EIGHT YEARS !

You seem to be ignoring my question.
Was there a need for job creation during that span?

Furthermore and to ensure you do not fall for the spin of the numbers..

When Bush took over, many dot com jobs were lost...not becuase of Bush policies but because of the reality of the dot com bubble.

And not only were those jobs replaced during the ensuing 8 years, but another million were added.

And finally, and what you seemed to have left out, the recession hbegan in ewarly 2007....and that is from normal market cycles and not to be confused with the credit collapse....

So there was a net gain of 1 million jobs despoite all of the dot com jobs lost, the jobs lost in the 2007 recession...and, of course, not to mention that there was no agenda to create jobs.

When we analyze the numbers THAT way....the proper way.....sounds like Bush did a dam good job.

You want spin? Spin this

US Population increased by 25 million during that time period and the Republicans only managed to add 1.08 million jobs

And they say they would do a better job with the economy?

In the wake of a recession that began roughly seven weeks after President Bush took office, America experienced six years of uninterrupted economic growth and a record 52 straight months of job creation that produced more than 8 million new jobs. During the Bush presidency, the unemployment rate averaged 5.3 percent. We saw labor-productivity gains that averaged 2.5 percent annually — a rate that exceeds the averages of the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. Real after-tax income per capita increased by more than 11 percent. And from 2000 to 2007, real GDP grew by more than 17 percent, a gain of nearly $2.1 trillion.

Now let’s consider Mr. Obama’s record: an unemployment rate of 9.5 percent, with 131,000 jobs lost in July, during our so-called Recovery Summer (Vice President Biden promised us up to 500,000 new jobs a month back in April). The overall unemployment rate, incorporating people who want jobs but did not look during July, is now 16.5 percent.

The left doesn't care if they are spending 166 thousand dollars per job. It's not their money. Only retards on the left would really tout that as being successful.
 
I'd love to see the particulars , a job "created" by public funds on a road in my area for example may have taken one from elsewhere such as the dirt contractor who DIDN'T get a road construction project.

Public jobs are temporary and although some things can be looked upon as needed such as a new bridge being built, they rarely create lasting wealth, of course there are exceptions such as a road or damn that produces electricity.

All construction jobs are temporary. You complete a project and technically have no job until you start your next project. Public works projects have long term economic impacts by improving the infrastructure. Roads, bridges and maintenance are all vital.

The bigger question is where were all those Republican jobs we were promised? What happened to the "trickle down" from the Bush tax cuts? Republicans are supposed to be business friendly and create more jobs.

What happened? Why was 2000-2010 a lost decade for economic growth?


Yea we should all just work for the government, a government that does not produce one single thing. :cuckoo:

Awesome... but.. how does that jive with a nearly 10% unemployment rate vs. 5%?
 
Obama spent a trillion dollars tro create 3 million jobs....estimate is 166K for a 50K job.

And Bush spent $5 Trillion

What do we have to show for our $5 trillion? A tax cut for the wealthy and two wars?

$5 trillion invested in our economy to create 1 million jobs?

Thats $5 million spent per job!

LMAO...

Talk about spin?

You must look at the UNEMPLOYMENT numbers...not the increase in population.
I dont cart if it went up 100 million....if uunemployment is at 4% the whole time, what difference does it make how much the population went up?

You're starting to concern me RW.....You are sounding ignorant in this thread.

It would be 15% or more if we counted UE like we once did.

Yep, the left is starting to get really desparate.

I understand. It must be difficult defending a failure.

Too many look to THEIR Party or government for the solution, that is our problem, not the solution. The solution is for the government to allow the economy to correct itself but that is painful and few want that if it did only last a short time, they had rather embrace their partee'.

True,

Sadly, however, people like RW see numbers and starts to brag at how government intervention is doing great things for the economy..

When, in fact, if you apply a little logic, one will see that government intervention does nothing but allow politicians to blame the other party....knowing dam well that neither party can truly do what they claim they can do..

Unless, of course, they take over private industry.
 
So... we're saying that at a current unemployment rate that is twice that under Bush, there are more jobs? Sounds like Obama has created some seriously lazy people then!
