Who cares? Presidents don't decide who works or who doesn't.

I'm just curious. Why would you average in the first month or 3 months or 6 months of a president's term implying that he had anything to do with that unemployment rate?

Pub dupes! How dumb can you get? The attention span of a pygmy shrew...

 

[Rozman]

Up until Obama The President of the United States was accountable for many things....

Obama is not it seems....

 

[francoHFW]

Considering he was given an economy losing 700k jobs/month and he turned it around in 9 months, at which point UE was at 10.3%, the pub outlook is gibberish.

No country is doing better than us NOW and they're waiting for us to pull them out of this gigantic Pub mess, if the Pubs would allow it, TOTAL DUPE of gloom and doom a-holes...We had 2.5% growth last year, with the Pubs and ignorant dupes fekking things up and moaning all the way. PFFFT!!

Again, your dog could direct this country to 2.5 percent growth. Record welfare, unemployment, fed pumping billions monthly into stock market, low gdp, 17 trillion in debt aren't exactly "turning it around". This is sub mediocre at best.

Should the president be given the power to control America's economy?

 

[francoHFW]

Pub austerity would have given us a true depression, with millions homeless. Waiting for a war again. Idiocy.

You're probably right, though one must consider the judgment of a dog that would stay with Franco.

So you credit Bill Clinton with the 4% UE he left for GW Bush?

Stupid talking points and ridiculous insults- the dupes' repertoire lol...

The President with the greatest economic crash since the Great Depression is?

It wasn't the greatest until after we had 5 years of Obama's economic policies.

Bush was also handed an economy headed into a recession. Furthermore, the issue was compounded by 9/11.

No one feels any sympathy for Obama.

 

[rdean]

Republicans support this and pretend they don't at the same time.

 

[francoHFW]

The US middle class lost half ther assets thanks to Bush, and he wrecked the rest of the world too, unlike the .com crash. Obama's policies? LOL, the pubs have blocked all real jobs bills, and everything else, since 2/2010, as well as costing 1% growth by the debt limit crisis and now the sequester...ALWAYS a disaster, dupe.

You obviously care given that you responded.

Because it occured while the President was in office. You can debate till the cows come home about the Presidents impact on the economy during his whole time in office, but the fact remains, these were the unemployment conditions for Americans while they were in office.

Obama at 53 months has the worst record since World War II. By the time he is at 96 months and leaves office, he may very well still have the worst average unemployment record since World War II.
