The GOP said Obamanomics would kill the economy. It didn t. Now what - The Week


The GOPs messaging is built around blaming President Obama's progressive policies — the Affordable Care Act (aka ObamaCare), the Dodd-Frank overhaul of the financial regulatory system, energy regulation, tax hikes on the rich — for the weak economic recovery. Some Republicans have gone even further in the past six years, predicting just-around-the-corner catastrophe — soaring interest rates, rocketing prices, a collapsing dollar — due to "Obamanomics."
Such apocalyptic forecasts look silly in retrospect. The dollar is at a nine-year high, interest rates remain low, and inflation is still well below the Federal Reserve's 2 percent target. The only thing that has collapsed is the annual U.S budget deficit, from nearly 10 percent of GDP in 2009, to under 3 percent last year. One reason: Non-defense discretionary spending is headed toward its lowest levels in modern history

Leave it to the far left to go overseas and use commentary from other far left sources..

Then again when close to 40% of the work force is out of work, the far left is doing what they set out to do.

I've been reading the same thing here - that the sky is falling and we just don't know it yet.

And the other far left propaganda drone swoops in with it's programmed religious propaganda and misses by light years.
 
It did, but the economy was strong enough to grow out of the damage that Obama did.

BTW, how could he have done anything with what you call an obstructionist Congress?

5 years of a recovery from a recession is really, really pathetic, nothing to brag about. And the recovery still isn't that great for anyone other then the Democrats beloved beholding 1 percenters.

They will continue with their same old bullshit. Like Obama is a Muslim and not born in the United States.

And the far left will continue to blame everyone else and accept zero responsibility.

You mean out the blame where it belongs.
 
How much of the gdp is obamacare? Plz tell us dems
If it weren't for franking, which luckily obama can't stop; where would gas prices be
interest rates are being intentionally kept low to drive people into the stock market to make money
This is a very superficial recovery at best

If you did that you would be blaming yourselves.

Then again the far left can not do such things as they push their religious agenda on the masses.

Republicans have been ranting about the "failed" Obama economy for six years.

Now is the time for Republicans to change gears and say.....Obama didn't do that

Typical liberal hysteria. Obamacare is a constant drain on the economy, you're going to have to show me the quotes the whole thing would tank in one year because I don't remember anyone saying that.

What does this have to do with the gas prices in Europe?

Glad you brought up that obstructionist Congress

This is the first time in history we have tried to initiate an economic recovery while insisting on austerity. Rather than pumping more money into the economy with infrastructure spending and government spending, we tried to get a recovery while slashing the deficit
