Misery Index at 56 year low

[NYcarbineer]

I guess this is why you don't hear conservatives harp on it much anymore.

"By one measure, the U.S. economy is the best it’s been since the presidency of Dwight Eisenhower. The recent plunge in inflation has helped drive the U.S. Misery Index to its least miserable level since the spring of 1959...."

And, of all things, thanks in large part to energy prices. I guess NOT having oilmen like Bush and Cheney running the country is a good case for keeping misery at bay.

 

[BluesLegend]

Awesome, lets lower my taxes then.

But income inequality.....death of the middle class......

Huh? How did BushCo raise gas prices? Fracking is what got it down recently, with obama kicking and screaming to no avail. It's called "the free market".

Impossible. Liberals are always miserable.

In fact, as soon as the prices dropped, they were talking about raising the gas tax. You know, keeping the happiness going, and stuff.

Is the debt paid off?

Okay, then.

Right after we pay for Bush's wars. And the other Bush's war. And Reagan's war.

Don't worry the Obama economy is so awesome we can lower taxes and pay off the debt

My spin would be "ya but we're still not in the top 10 happiest countries on earth."

Ahahaha you liberals are hilarious, you preach economic doom and gloom then try to prop up your clown in the White House preaching economic victory. Why the contradiction? I think we know, you lie!

 

[Porker]

Impossible. Liberals are always miserable.

All those fat welfare queens should now be looking for a job.

 

[Stephanie]

The ME is on fire now worse than it has been in decades.... once again you make no sense whatsoever.

The Misery Index was invented just for Jimmy Carter
Now that the index isn't longer bad, the index that matters is now....no not the unemployment rate.....but workforce participation rate

The 'Doomsday Clock' overshadows any benefit from a lower 'misery index'. Too bad.
