I am just wondering how you Obama supporters view the U.S. economy over the next four years. Unemployment rate? GDP growth? Inflation? If you had $100k to invest, where would you put it? C'mon, help me out!

If you had $100,000 and wanted to keep it, get it offshore and turn it into some other stable currency, Swiss Francs, Euros, or Yuan. That way the devaluing of the dollar won't hurt as much.
 
I'm not an obama supporter but here is mine :
- $22 trillion national debt
- 25% unemployment (using original methodology)
- 40% youth unemployment
- 60 million on food stamps
- we are still in Afghanistan
- fighting half a dozen proxy wars in Africa
- the drug war continues
- weaponized drones flying over American cities
- the CPI will breach 5%, with real inflation closer to 20%
- gold will be over $3500/oz
- oil will reach $150/barrel
- selective price controls will be imposed, resulting in shortages, lines, and rationing
- the top marginal income tax rate will be at least 45%

Wow- kind of a doomsday scenario, but if you extrapolate current trends...

Those are exactly the markers Republicans should be demanding of Obabble...tell us where your policies will lead us...give us your goals and predictions...and then own them like a MAN.
 
How many times are you people going to do the whole "Doomsday Scenario" thing?

4 years ago, you all said the EXACT same things.

Don't you all ever get tired of being wrong?
 
What economy, by that time Lady Gunslinger, mud whistle, and Daveman will be leading the forces of the Revolution against 3rd term elect Obama and his army of Socialist, Marxist, Keynan Nazis.
 
Predictions made by Right-wing pundits in 2008:

The economy will fall into a depression in the next few years due to Obama's economic policies - Rush Limbaugh

Obama will institute Nazi-Style eugenics - Glenn Beck

Obama plans to resettle thousands of Palestinians in the United States - New Media Journal

Obama will reinstitute the Federal Communications Commission’s Fairness Doctrine, eviscerating right-wing talk radio in the process. - Rush Limbaugh, Sen Jim Demint

Shall I go on? The list is endless.

And that's just from popular right-wing figures, the crazy shit that has come from people on this board is much, much more extreme.

We would of been in a depression if Obanka
hadn't spent 6, trillion dollars of borrowed money - which will make the eventual depression more precipitous ...

LOL. Still making with the BS predictions.

Seriously, don't you guys get tired of being wrong? I would think it would, eventually.
 
High quality natural colored diamonds, will be better and more rare than gold. Could apreciate 20-30% per year.

Obabble said he would cut the deficient in half...health care costs would drop...unemployment would fall...now he says we have made progress with the fiscal cliff deal...all bullshit.

What the OP wanted, right?
 
NOt an obama supporter, but I figure at best the economy / jobs will be about like it is now for the next decade at least.
