President Trump is ending the war on business. it doesn't get any better than this!

[basquebromance]

Trump is ending the punishment of investment. That’s what this tax bill is really about: the return on capital will go up after tax. The cost of capital will go down after tax. And that will lead directly into new business projects, and more hires, and better wages and productivity. It doesn’t get any better than this.

Just like Bush did. The trickle down theory and all that. How did 2008 go for you? Oh, yeah, some of the rich got massively richer taking a punt on the lives of real people who lost fucking EVERYTHING.

Just like Bush did. The trickle down theory and all that. How did 2008 go for you? Oh, yeah, some of the rich got massively richer taking a punt on the lives of real people who lost fucking EVERYTHING.

A very thin sliver of people did well in 2008/2009, betting against stupid rich people who thought they could make money selling crazy loan schemes to the middle-class. To use that as your example of how the rich did well through the GFC is like pointing out that there were some free blacks in 1820.

There was one guy, I forget his name, he made something like $3 billion in a couple of days. A lot of people lost a lot of money and this guy could buy himself enough houses for all those people who lost theirs. And why did these people lose money? Because their fucking president went and did stupid shit and believed in the trickle down theory, but the money never trickled down.

It always trickles down. Sometimes it gushes down, but you have to get out there into the stream.

It won't reach you if you are in your mom's basement.

5 Top Investors Who Profited From The Recession

Here are 5 who made immense amounts of money, it trickled DOWN to them.

 

[Jomama]

. And why did these people lose money?

Because they acted irresponsibly with debt. What, Bush was supposed to make the economy magical so that unqualified liar-loans would never meet reality? amazing how far you will bend your view of the world just to make cheap political point.

There are lots of different types of people who lost money.

The first lot of people who lost money where those people who lost their jobs. Millions of people lost their jobs. Losing your job can have much wider ramifications.

There were people with stocks and shares, trying to make a little extra money, and they lost a lot of money. Why were the markets allowed to get so volatile? Because the checks that should be in place the govt decided to get rid of.

You have people who just want a home to live. Some people maybe spent too much money, maybe there were stupid people, but one of the biggest problems was the banks. The banks were doing risky shit and they took a lot of people down with them.

You can pretend it's just individual people's fault. But the reality is the recession should never have happened like it happened. Bush wanted to pump the economy to make himself look good, he wanted to reward his friends, he wanted war, he wanted a lot of things that were BAD for the people, and it wasn't Bush who suffered.

Yeah, if liberals like your boy Obama would leave our economic system alone, we would all be fine.
When they fuck it up most of us survive to fix it.

So...... economy wise of presidents....

Unemployment

Eisenhower in 2.9, out 6.6 = +3.7
Kennedy in 6.6, out 5.7 = -0.9
Johnson in 5.7, out 3.4 = -2.3
Nixon in 3.4, out 5.5 = + 2.1
Ford in 5.5, out 7.5 = +2
Carter in 7.5, out 7.5 = 0
Reagan in 7.5, out 5.4 = -2.1
Bush snr in 5.4, out 7.3 = +1.9
Clinton in 7.3, out 4.2 = -3.1
Bush Dubya in 4.2, out 7.8 = +3.6
Obama in 7.8, out 4.8 = -3

Worst post WW2 president is Carter with a 0 difference in unemployment when started and when he left. Best is Clinton at +3.1
Best Republicans is Reagan at +2.1 the ONLY post war US president to see unemployment lower. Now, he saw lower unemployment but also holds the record for the highest unemployment rate at 10.8, only one other time has it been above 10 and that was just after Obama took over. He holds the longest period of time for +10% unemployment and +7% unemployment for a post war president.

Every other Republican US president saw unemployment HIGHER after they left office than when they got it.

And yet you somehow manage to criticize Obama. Go figure.

 

[Jomama]

Yeah, if liberals like your boy Obama would leave our economic system alone, we would all be fine. .

Not true because there are many soft-headed liberals who are like sheep on the govt teet and there are wolves, maybe only 1% but they go to the power centers and they can take the soft-headed liberal sheep for all their money. I know, work and socialize with these wolves. There needs to be regulations because the wolves will eat through the economy like locusts.
