Lately Leftist Commentators Bringing Up "80 Straight Months Of Growth"Under Obama.Are They Joking?

[Rexx Taylor]

Did anyone else catch at least one Democrat guest on Fox bring up the 80 straight months of growth in the USA during the Obama Years?
Growth? Really? Over 90 Million People were out of work during the Obama years, unemployment was always around 10 to 15%, GDP was about 1.48% Under Obama, 8 years of never ending suffering.
And yet we just had a few rat commentators gloating of how the economy was booming during the Obama years?
You mean like the booming economy of,,Illinois, Connecticut, California, Rhode Island, New York, Newark, Baltimore and Ferguson?

What is truly remarkable is that this is the first time you've heard it and you continue to refuse to believe it.

Did Obama replace all the high paying manufacturing jobs lost while W was in power. No. Those are gone and they're not coming back, no matter what Trump tells you.

You meant to say, this ISN'T the first time he heard it. Right?

Say, partisan hack.

Tell us all what the economy did after the democrats took control of the house and Senate in 2007, till they lost the house in 2010 and then lost the Senate in 2014.

Are you aware of the effects of the Commodity Futures Modernization Act, which exempted credit-default swaps from regulation? Cause it was passed in December of 2000.

Do you know anything?

Yeah, you are an ignorant partisan hack.

Still waiting for you to explain what that Commodity Futures Modernization Act did.

How about who rewrote the Community Reinvestment Act which put pressure on banks to lend to low income neighborhoods.

So, the democrats took over congress in 2007, lost the house in 2010. Tell us what happened.

Get your ******* graph out you ******* hack. See what happened when the economy was under democrat majority control....2007 to 2010.

You stupid ignorant ******* hack.

The damage was done to the economy in 2000 to 2006 and it was W's cut and spend policies that killed the economy.

Obama started the growth. It began before the midterms. And has continued unabated.

When the current Administration cuts taxes, we'll see how long it takes to crash the economy. It took Reagan 7 years, but the working poor still had savings back in those days. W cleaned them out.

You stupid ignorant ******* hack.

You're so easily triggered.

Greenspan was begged to regulate swaps and derivatives like CMOs and CDOs and he steadfastly refused, even though he admitted he didn't understand them.

Ratings agencies were selling AAA ratings - Treasury-level - for CMOs and CDOs. You know, those cute little "securities" that fed the Meltdown.

There were zero (0) reserve requirements on swaps, so AIG was selling them to anyone with cash.

Investment banks were buying swaps on the very derivatives they were SELLING.

On and on.

I'll bet talk radio hasn't covered that, which would explain why you don't know it.

Tax cuts don't crash an economy

 

[Rexx Taylor]

and how can borrowing about 1 trillion a year be a sign that we were booming?

 

[Mac1958]

I promised myself I wouldn't get into conversations about the Meltdown with people who have no understanding of what happened.

 

[Rexx Taylor]

oh yah baby! during the Obama years, at any given time there were about 10,000,000 job openings and 2 Million People chasing these jobs?

FOX News being fair and balanced as they are, has to have their share of liberal idiots on there.

That being said, Obama was the only President in history to never have a full years of 3% GDP growth. His average annual growth rate was only 1.48%, the weakest of any expansion since 1949. Trump's economy is something like 3.5% right now.

Tax cuts don't crash an economy

Reagan just tripled the debt. When T was talking to Mexico President, he said how much smarter he was and how the US is losing money, well then we do not need a tax cut do we. If Toyota and Foxconn are building here we do not need a corp tax cut either.

The Dow crashed September 29, 2008, before Obama was elected. There was no market crash in 2009.

The magazine's story, which apportioned blame widely between such figures as Countrywide co-founder Angelo Mozilo, former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan, former Lehman Brothers CEO Dick Fuld and President George W. Bush, zeroed in on two specific policy decisions made during the Clinton Administration. Clinton ushered out the Glass-Steagall Act, which for decades had separated commercial banking from investment banking, and signed the Commodity Futures Modernization Act — which exempted all derivatives, including the now notorious credit-default swaps, from federal regulation. His Administration also loosened housing rules, which put pressure on banks to lend in low-income neighborhoods.

No year with over 3% GDP Growth.

This is where we have slowly devolved into. The end game of the blood sucking government policies.
