When the next Great Recession hits, how will republicans respond?

[Billy000]

When 8 million people lost their jobs to the recession of 2008, the republican response was "find another job!" Now of course that is the ultimate goal, but what republicans were too stupid to realize is that those 8 million jobs were GONE. They didn't exist anymore. That means the large majority of those people were hopelessly unemployed for the immediate future. An immediate solution to that problem was needed. Luckily, adults were in power at the time and federal unemployment insurance was extended for those who desperately needed it. See the extension of the unemployment insurance was an emergency measure. The rightwing in their simple, childish minds thought that meant dems wanted everyone to live off the government. How could they be this stupid? Obviously it didn't turn out this way. The extension of those benefits was part of Obama's stimulus package. The stimulus of consumer spending given to these individuals created jobs in the process. From there, the massive job loss ceased and private sector job growth began and never ceased. Whew.

My point is when it comes to a national crisis like a Great Recession, a government solution is needed. Now let's pretend republicans were in control and another crisis hit. How would they respond? They would probably cut taxes for the wealthy which A) has proven to be a poor economic stimulator for the lower classes and B) would do nothing to help the growing unemployed in such an emergency.

The bottom line is you better hope and pray repubs don't control the gov in 2016.

Hey, pssst...democrats were in charge when Fannie Mae collapsed bringing the entire world economy down with it. Democrat Barney Frank was the chair(person) of the powerful "house banking committee" which had oversight responsibility for Fannie Mae and Frank told Americans that Fannie was solvent when it was in desperate trouble. The question is whether democrats nudged Fannie over the edge as the biggest October surprise in history or it was typical democrat negligence.

What will we do? Blame it on Obama, seems the only logical response if you listen to the morons around here that blamed Bush

Yup, Dems took over in 2006 & it's been all downhill since.

I don't know why you are ranting about irrelevant bullshit. I don't care what dems did or didn't do years ago. That's not the point at all.

Let me simplify this: if the next Great Recession hits, how would republicans respond? How would they help the thousands that would be losing their jobs in the economic free fall?

Wow I had no idea there was no unemployment insurance prior to Democrats taking over.

Yet another fucking troll thread from Billy The Fuckwad Triple Zero.

They would hopefully do nothing and wait for the market to correct itself.
We see that what the Dems did was an abject total and complete failure.

If republicans were in control, how would they assist the thousands, potentially millions of people who lost their jobs against their will? What policies would they put in place?

This is a simple question gramps. Answer it.

Gee that's a terrific solution. Yeah let's just wait for the market to correct while hundreds of thousands of people are left unemployed every month.

Congress will answer it idiot. No need for idiotic speculation. They do what needs to be done or they get voted out. Simple as that. Now go ask daddy Obama for your safety blankie & be quiet.

Well the Dem solution of paying people to stay out of work resulted in, surprise, people staying out of work. So that's an obvious failure.
What's your solution?

Extending unemployment insurance moron. It's a temporary measure. Do you understand that word? Temporary.

It was 2007 when Democrats took over. But it was too late by then because all the subprime loans had been made & were waiting to implode. Barney Frank was just trying to prevent a panic the same way John McCain, George Bush, Alan Greenspan & Ben Bernanke were when they said everything was fundamentally sound.
