I lived through the so-called recession and made a lot of money in the market during those two "terrible years". The only people hurt were the banks who were victims of the democrats bad mortgage policies, I have no sympathy for people who do stupid things.
The fact you had the capital to take advantage of the down market does not have any impact on if there was a recession or not. Are you honestly this stupid or is it just an act for the internet?
A lot of people were fucking hurt, home prices plummeted, unemployment went to 10%, foreclosures were at near record levels. Your logic is like someone sitting in Kansas going "well, I did not get any rain so there could not have been a hurricane in Florida"
This is stupid even by your mindless partisan standards.
the media and democrat claim of a "great recession" in 08 has been overstated at best. That claim was made for partisan reasons to make Obama look better than his record. If you are unable to comprehend that then there is nothing more to be said.
people are hurt in this economy every day, its called life.
So now it is just the "great" part that is wrong....your story seems to be changing.
call it whatever makes you happy, I really don't care since I know what it really was.
once again, words have meanings. That you pretend they mean something else is not really relevant. You can call a banana an apple, but it is just still a banana.
