The Economic Recovery Of 2013

Let me tell you why this belongs in the Politics Forum.....

If we were in a recession and the democrats told us we were in a recession, that wouldn't be news, would it?

If we were in a recession and Republicans told us we were in a recession and the democrats didn't argue with it, that wouldn't be news either.

But here's the deal...... We've got one party telling us we're recovering while another party says we're not.

THAT, my children is politics. THAT is when truth butts up against lies. THAT is a political discussion, not an economic discussion.

Got it? Good..... Now, here's why we are boned. As to why democrats won't admit we're in deep kimchee..... Who's zoomin' who

37 Reasons Why "The Economic Recovery Of 2013" Is A Giant Lie

There has been absolutely no employment recovery. The percentage of Americans that are actually working has stayed between 58 and 59 percent for 51 months in a row. But most Americans don't understand these things and they just take whatever the mainstream media tells them as the truth.

#4 There are 1,148,000 fewer Americans working today than there was in November 2006. Meanwhile, our population has grown by more than 16 million people during that time frame.

#5 The "inactivity rate" for men in their prime working years (25 to 54) has just hit a brand new all-time record high. Does this look like an "economic recovery" to you?...

Edge:

Much, much more at the link.

People, you're being lied to. The Unemployment rate among Blacks is higher than at any time since the Great Depression and the U3 for Youth is at 16%..... Staggering.

What you're surviving on is hope. A baseless, meaningless hope. One in which you deceive yourselves into thinking, "Well, the unemployment rate and the economy are all fixed now; according to the TV and obama. So I guess it's only a matter of time until my turn to share in America's prosperity comes along."

Wrong. You're being lied to. Read the article. Grow up, understand that "Hope and Change" along with $5.95 will buy you a coffee at Starbucks.

Which is about your take-home for an hour's work.

Want it to get better? Vote the socialists out of office. Conservatives know how to make things work. democrats only know how to make you feel good about being a loser.

There is NO recovery. There hasn't been a recovery and there will not be a recovery as long as Barry is president. Barry is now in "re-distribution" mode. that is what Obozocare is all about. Barry couldn't care less whether the economy EVER picks up. Hell, even his own party of thugs are beginning to question him.

Get used to it. we have three more years of this incompetent slob to endure.

Can you be a little more specific about what Obama's doing wrong? Don't forget what the economy looked like after 8 years of bush. Conservatives know how to make things work? Again, why did the economy crash under bush then?

The GOP took back the House in 2010 with the mantra of "Jobs, jobs, jobs". So what happened? Oh, it's Obama's fault. That's right.

Unemployment is down now since they been in power

Yeah, because of McJobs. Under-employment is way up. Part time jobs don't pay the bills. Many people have just stopped looking. The Bureau of Labor stats only tell 1/4 of the story.

What kind of unemployed person stops looking for work ?

The kind you don't want to hire.

What percentage of job gains since 2010 are entry level ?

And the far left propaganda machine rolls on and on.

What far left propaganda machine? I live in liberal California where talk radio is dominated by the right wing even in the Bay Area. There is no liberal media.
 
Close.

Part 1: Bush killed the economy.

Part 2: Obama has failed to recover the economy.

The reason our economy has been sluggish and vulnerable for the past several years is because we crossed an important Debt-To-GDP threshold during Bush's regime. Our economy will not thrive again until we return to the other side of that threshold.

Are you ready to give up your mortgage interest deduction? Are you ready to accept a Social Security and Medicare eligiblity age of 70? Are you ready to give up all of your tax deductions, exemptions, credits?

If not, then you are the reason those people are out of work. You are the third rail our chickenshit politicians are afraid of.

Not one dimocrap has ever successfully explained just exactly how Boosh killed the economy.

If you need it explained to you, especially by a Democrat, you are pretty far gone.

But you easily swallow Obama being blamed for everything under the sun that goes wrong on his watch, though. Funny, that.

If you can't explain it, you're full of shit.
No one is blaming Obama for everything. Just things he's obviously touched. Like the economy.
 
I feel sorry for people trapped in their little partisan paradigms. I really do.

The light of the truth never penetrates.

Just curious, if the 2008 recession, bubble burst, or whatever was Bush's fault explain to me how the Congress gets a pass? Congress after 2006 could have stopped the wars, which did not lead to the down turn any way. Congress could have rescinded the Bush tax cuts, didn't happen. Up until Obama's second year they could have done ANYTHING they so desired. Bush was a lame duck after 2006. 2007 marking our decline and quite remarkably the Democrat take over.
 
Summer of Recovery: Part 1 Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooosh killed the economy
Summer of Recovery: Part 2 Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooosh killed the economy
Summer of Recovery: Part 3 Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooosh killed the economy
Summer of Recovery: Part 4 Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooosh killed the economy
Summer of Recovery: Part 5 Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooosh killed the economy

Close.

Know why? Because it's bullshit.

Point #2 is well taken. THAT can be laid at his feet.

Oh..... I know how Boosh ruined the economy..... Smoot-Hawley, right?

You haven't shown how Obama has failed to 'recover' this economy.

And the far left has not shown how Obama has made the economy better.
 
I feel sorry for people trapped in their little partisan paradigms. I really do.

The light of the truth never penetrates.

And yet you placed 100% blame on Bush... despite Clinton and his congress doing the deregulation and Res/Dems in the congress keeping everything going under Bush. Obama being in that congress, voting for it all the way.

Reps are stupid, but 5 years later it's time to admit Dems and non stop stimulus has failed.... seeing as it crashed the economy in the first place. The great housing stimulus.

Obama held the country hostage, with a gun to our heads... with the help of the Senate of Democrats.


Feels good using mindless talking points... I should do this non stop, I mean who can debate me then?

Did you just call "AM talk radio" the media? I wonder when they will let "talk radio" in the white house meetings with the President.

As far as I know past NPR, no "political talk radio" gets millions of dollars from he federal Government.... No, only NPR the far left talk radio station gets that... odd you brought that up.

The far left will do that.
 
The percentage of Americans that are actually working has stayed between 58 and 59 percent for 51 months in a row. But most Americans don't understand these things and they just take whatever the mainstream media tells them as the truth.

#4 There are 1,148,000 fewer Americans working today than there was in November 2006. Meanwhile, our population has grown by more than 16 million people during that time frame.

And the interesting thing is that the real GDP has recovered in spite of the emp ratio remaining flat.

Which means that the GDP recover has been on increased efficiency rather than employment.

Obama buggered the pup blind, hyperbole but this is politics.

Obamacare is destroying the medical system, myeh.

and the laundry list goes on

the 2018 election will be history before the downward slide ends and the Ds will get back at least one house of congress to muck up the works further.

Even with perfect moves it will take a minimum of eight years to correct the damage before any really positive results can take root.

You think you might want to avoid overpromising?
