We had a relatively stagnant economy with terribly slow growth for 8 years. Then BOOM

[Remodeling Maidiac]

Trump won, tore down Obama's regulatory walls that surrounded our businesses, lowered taxes across the board, destroyed the job killing law known as Obamacare, gave the finger to supposed trade partners that rip us off, and the list goes on and on.

But who does the left thank? Obama. And despite the positive news that happens month after month these people can't line up fast enough to use the crying rooms.

 

[Claudette]

Stagnant?? The fucking thing was deader than a door nail.

Winger keeps saying the economy was great under Obama. I'm still wondering what planet she was on.

Hell UE was through the roof and they kept extending UE payments because the economy was so bad and there were no jobs. The economy was so far in the toilet the flush wouldn't work.

Winger is one delusional puppy.

You do understand that as the labor market tightens, job growth is going to slow, right?

Pretty much fundamental stuff there.

Just checking. I can never tell when wingers (either side) are being serious or just fooling around.

The left thanks Obama? Well he did bring unemployment down over 5 percentage points, but of course you all spent those years arguing that unemployment didn’t matter so...

Also, sub-3% GDP growth for Dump so far. WHAT A BOOM

Obama’s Final Numbers

Statistical indicators of President Obama's eight years in office.

By Brooks Jackson

Posted on September 29, 2017 | Updated on May 17, 2018

Summary
The numbers are nearly all in now. What they show about what really happened during the eight years that Barack Obama was president is sometimes different from what politicians claimed.

• The economy gained a net 11.6 million jobs. The unemployment rate dropped to below the historical norm.
• Average weekly earnings for all workers were up 4.0 percent after inflation. The gain was 3.7 percent for just production and nonsupervisory employees.
• After-tax corporate profits also set records, as did stock prices. The S&P 500 index rose 166 percent.
• The number of people lacking health insurance dropped by 15 million. Premiums rose, but more slowly than before.
• The federal debt owed to the public rose 128 percent. Deficits were rising as Obama departed.
• Home prices rose 20 percent. But the home ownership rate hit the lowest point in half a century.
• Illegal immigration declined: The Border Patrol caught 35 percent fewer people trying to get into the U.S. from Mexico.
• Wind and solar power increased 369 percent. Coal production declined 38 percent. Carbon emissions from burning fossil fuel dropped 11 percent.
• Production of handguns rose 192 percent, to a record level.
• The murder rate dropped to the lowest on record in 2014, then rose and finished at about the same rate as when Obama took office.

Trump won, tore down Obama's regulatory walls that surrounded our businesses, lowered taxes across the board, destroyed the job killing law known as Obamacare, gave the finger to supposed trade partners that rip us off, and the list goes on and on.

But who does the left thank? Obama. And despite the positive news that happens month after month these people can't line up fast enough to use the crying rooms.

Only the right wing has to resort to so much special pleading to try to make a point they don't have.

US federal spending is up one hundred thirty-eight percent, and climbing; total US debt is one hundred sixty-nine percent, and climbing; and the monetary base has increased five hundred and nine percent and climbing, with new money.

You seem to be greatly exagggerating the economy. Labor force participation really low. Wages stagnant. Stock market down over 1500 from its high. First quarter growth only 2.2%. Economy is mildly better and trending as would be expected. And deficits soaring.

Trump? Not so much.

The criminal Trump Foundation has been referred for both State and Federal criminal charges by the New York Attorney General. Then there's the Civil suit.

Thanks Bush for taking away sources of revenue with all the Tax Cuts for the rich. Who does that during a time of war? You would have to be a real idiot. Don't you agree?

Yes, domestic spending is more productive domestically than foreign entanglement spending, in foreign lands.

Good news around every corner with trump.

I’m sure the folks at the DNC are aware of Trumps “good news” first 500 days and hoping against hope the mere 145 more until the elections aren’t anywhere near as good for him. Slim chance of that but you can’t blame desperate folks for fantasizing all will be A-OK.

Clearly you don't have investments. We had a boom prior to January 26. The five months since have been pretty "stagnant" .

So where's this "list that goes on and on"?

So the labor market was tightening under President Obama in 2016?
