Do liberals really don't know this answer?

[The Rabbi]

Yea yea. The slowest recovery ever and the left don't know the reason why, 8 years?

The Great Recession was the deepest recession this country has gone through since the Great Depression.
Below is a chart that should help people visualize the depth of this recession versus other recessions.
People should note that America's last three recessions, were the three longest recessions. The 1990 recession is the third longest since 1948 and the 2001 the second longest. Yet four earlier recessions where more profound but lasted a shorter time period than the 2001 recession.
It's easy to see there is a trend here. Recessions are lasting longer.
I also added a chart showing the flat wage trend dating back to the early eighties. In constant dollars, the average hourly wage earner is making less than in the 1970s'
Is it possible that over 30 years of flat wages have played into why our recessions have lasted longer, considering we have a consumer spending driven economy?

As usual you miss it. The trend is that government is doing more and more when each recession hits. This prolongs the recession and makes the next recovery weaker. Which is exactly what we've seen.

If that's the case, you should easily find documentation to back yourself up.
I offered up a theory that's based on a coincidence or is it a coincidence?
It seems Forbes and other publication certainly believe that the lack of consumer spending extended the recession. Also, long-term flat wages do shrink expendable income.

[rightwinger]

Our corporate taxes are the highest in the world. Want jobs to return to America? Eliminate the corporate income tax.

Well, it seems like jobs will never be here again...

We added one million jobs in the last three months.....more than Bush added in eight years

False.
Obama is the McJobs president.

Unfortunately, the BLS statistics do not support your myth

But hey Rabbi...if you keep repeating it, conservatives will accept it as fact

8 million new jobs underObama
Stock Market more than doubled
10 million more have health insurance
Unemployment dropped by 4.5 %
Household wealth up $26 TRILLION

Most new jobs are part time.
How many billions of tax dollars have been put into the market. Hell I hope it would go up.
10 million out of 40 million a failure
I don't trust the liar in chief on anything he says. For a good reason.
More people on welfare, ever.
Now go one and brag about the failure you voted for.

Sorry....didn't bother to read past your first claim

NO, there is no data supporting your claim that most jobs are part time

Obamacare took care of full time jobs. Also by liberal data has left 30 million uninsured. Unless y'all were lying in the beginning about the uninsured numbers. Can I say Gruber?

More unsubstantiated myths

Why do you bother?

Fact hurt, don't they?

I have not Bought health care through work yet and it is only $50 bucks a month , why bother? And what myth? I refuse to get it on principle alone, Don't care, I will keep on paying the penalty

Why Would I rather pay the tax penalty?

Answer: because I am a Man and no dumb ass liberal is going to force me to buy something I don't want every month


Fuck you

Sounds like you should be able to retire on mental disability.

I saw this reply in another thread

it does not affect me either, but that is neither here nor there when it becomes apparent that the wealthy have no interest in using their funds to re-invest in the USA, plus citizen entrepreneurship is at an all time low....

Does the following ring a bell?
1. Obamas thousands of new regulations
2. Obama care
3. Our high cooperate tax rate
4. Obama being a liberal president
5. Obama pen and a phone and god knows what the little wanabe dictator Will do next

who would want to invest with this President and create jobs?

Are you serious?

Nope; some on the left believe it should be considered moral to Tax the wealthiest into Heaven.

If only we could do like the social Darwin's of the 19th century and let those afflicted by crashes, panics and depression die in the streets...

There were no social darwinists in the 19th century. Or after.
The wealthy spent huge amounts of money on social programs to help those affected.
Cruelty is the gov't prolonging recessions and creating lower growth, which hurts working class people.
Or were you just trying to boost your post count?

Social Darwins believe that only the fit should survive and the weak are to die off...and it also includes racial elitism...
