Obama has grown the economy & jobs while decreasing deficit. Bill Clinton did the same. Republicans run their mouth, but can't run the economy anywhere but into the ground. Just a bunch of MBA econ indoctrinated idiots preaching fake "Philips Curve" & "Wage-Price Spiral" ideology instead of reality.
Under Obama's administration government shrank in terms size, cost & jobs while the private sector exploded. The exact opposite happened Under Bush's administration. Bush exploded government cost, employment, pay, compensation, power, policing, eavesdropping, arrest, incarceration, stop & frisk & control over our lives. Unless you were an elite wallstreeter, then he made the rules preventing fraud, theft & abuse go away & legalized theft of workers pay & tax dollars. Clinton had the economy humming until Bush ideology destroyed it.
Clinton & Obama lowered government spending & deficits, Bush increased government spending, deficits & inflation.
Under Obama the employment ratio of the working age population is consistently increasing at a faster rate than Bush ever achieved at any point of his presidency. Bush destroyed more jobs than any president in history.
Government employee pay explodes under the Bush administration. Under Obama government pay is falling as private pay rises.
