US Economy turns in weakest growth to date.

[rightwinger]

Four months into the Failed Republican Congress and the economy is already tanking

I knew it would happen, just didn't think it would happen so fast

You need to start explaining why you think this instead of being a flaming apologist. That's why you're not taken serious

What would make you think anything about a Rabbi thread is serious?

You keep avoiding...it'noticed and again, why you're not taken serious.

The Failed Republican Congress is serious as a Trainwreck

Since January 2009, Republicans have had a goal of "The economy must fail". Now that they control the worst Congress in history....looks like they are on the way to their goal

And they have morons like the Rabbi to document each step

Again, what do you base that on? Spewing it isn't proving anything. Are you understanding that this is why you're not taken serious?

 

[The Rabbi]

It will either be flat or negative. Strong dollar coupled with struggling economies in Europe, Japan and China, laid off workers in oilfield related businesses, lack of startups and expansions due to Obamacare and higher taxes are all causes.
I also predict the Fed will not raise rates this year.

Now....if I could only remember this post in July. I will be able to mock you and your dopey prediction. By the way....is "flat" zero growth? Or....will you try and say that 3% ( my prediction ) is "flat"?

And when I'm right you'll post that I was right, correct?

Silly nutter.....I ALWAYS give props when someone is right with a prediction. If you had ever been right about one....you'd know that.

Please define "flat" growth.

Flat. Lets say 2% or less. ALthough if it's 2.3% or something I'm still right. This isnt an exact science you know.

That's ridiculous. 2% is not flat.

You are hedging ALREADY. You don't get to claim that 2% growth is flat for the purposes of this prediction.

You asked, dumbshit. I gave you an answer. I cant help it if you dont like that.

The Abject Failure of Republican Economic Policy Is Driving Millions Into Poverty

There are no winners in the Republican economy who are not the extremely wealthy, banks, and corporations, but in due time at the rate Republicans are going, even America’s elite will feel the death of American capitalism.
It has been nearly two-and-a-half years since Republicans took control of the House with promises to focus on jobs, jobs, jobs, but they have not created one job despite their claims of passing over thirty jobs bills. American businesses have suffered, and complained loudly that they do not need deregulation, lower taxes, or interest-free loans to prosper and start hiring new employees despite what Republicans claim; they need consumers with money to spend.

 

[The Rabbi]

Yes Democrat policies deliver failure 100% of the time. The usual suspects will be trotted out, weather, kiosks, George Bush, but the truth is we have Euro style regulation and taxation so we get Eurostyle economies with high unemployment and slow growth. 0.2% growth is not going to cut it.
U.S. Economy Stalls in the First Quarter - Yahoo Finance
The world’s largest economy sputtered to a near-halt in the first quarter, choked by slumping U.S. business investment and exports.


Gross domestic product, the volume of all goods and services produced, rose at a 0.2 percent annualized rate after advancing 2.2 percent the prior quarter, Commerce Department data showed Wednesday in Washington. The median forecast of 86 economists surveyed by Bloomberg called for a 1 percent gain. Consumer spending, the biggest part of the economy, rose 1.9 percent, a little better than projected

Do you even know what causes the economy to slow down for the first quarter? As a business owner I know for a fact that there are 2 reasons that affected my business.
1. Port truck drivers strike by in Long Beach, Ca.
2. Severe weather in east coast.

Anecdote is not evidence.

This the reality. Let me repeat the question.
Do you even know what causes the economy to slow down? Aside from blaming the Democrat, what else do you know about economy?
I am a Republican.

Of course you are.
All kinds of things can cause a slowdown. In this case we had weak economic policies that stifled growth to begin with. What's changed is the severe drop in oil prices couples with slowing economices in China and Europe plus sanctions on Russia and Iran.

Diversion on your part

The Failed Republican Congress has managed to nothing other than shutting down our Government and costing taxpayers $26 billion

Republicans are deliberately tanking the economy in meeting their objective of "the economy must fail"

The Failed Republican Congress is doing all they can to but the brakes on the economy. Zero GDP growth is a prime example

You're getting boring...26 billion is nothing when you're talking trillions.

Just admit you're clueless and stop responding, you're embarrassing yourself

Ignorant Republicans will say the truth then dismiss as a lie. Something that's been going on for decades. But when they feel like it, out of the blue, they will call it a lie:

The usual suspects will be trotted out, weather, kiosks, George Bush

So you see the ignorance? Now the evidence:

The Commerce Department said gross domestic product growth hit an annualized rate of 5 percent in the third quarter, revised upward from the previous estimate of 3.9 percent. Not since 2003 has the economy expanded so quickly.

The better-than-expected GDP numbers helped push the Dow Jones Industrial Average above 18,000 for the first time, the latest in a series of record highs. The S&P 500 also edged up.

-----------------------------------------------

See that? When you have a GOP president, it only takes less than two years and suddenly, it's all downhill.

-----------------------------------------------------

Consumer sentiment is at a post-recession high, and the nation has seen its best year of hiring in 15 years. The latest six months of expansion suggest that a surprisingly poor first quarter performance — when the GDP shrank 2.1 percent — was an anomaly, likely the result of miserable East Coast winter weather that kept consumers indoors.
---------------------------------------------------------

The federal government, too, after two years of tightening and sequestration, is again giving the economy a lift

-----------------------------------------------------

Because the government can actually help the economy. Something else Republicans don't understand.

Maybe this will help:

GDP last quarter .2%. Rush was right. Obama is a failure. Lost the war. Lost the recovery. He can't even stem the rising tide of the oceans as he promised.

What is the current rate of growth?

U.S. economy grew at anemic 0.2 pace in Q1

The Libs here will say this is a historic report of outstanding Obama leadership.... LOL

But we lost billions of jobs unjder Bush! The country was bankrupt! Every corporation had gone out of business until Obama rescued them all!

You're an idiot, like that's news.
This is the weakest recovery on record. This quarter has been the weakest through the recovery. Please lay off the bottle before you post in my threads.

It wasn't the weakest growth in the US economy to date.

You lied.

And I would say the weakest recovery on record was during the years of the Great Depression.

Keep trying!
