Amateur Hour Continues

Per FactCheck.org: During Barack Obama's presidency:

  • The economy gained a net of 11.6 million jobs (an 8.7% increase). The unemployment rate dropped from 7.8% in January of 2009 to 4.7% in January of 2017. It is currently at 3.6%.
  • Average weekly earnings for all workers were up 4% after inflation. The gain was 3-7% for just production and non-supervisory employees.
  • After-tax corporate profits also set records, as did stock prices. The S&P 500 index rose 166%.
  • Home prices rose 20%.
Your posts never include anything of substance. You never support your claims with any facts or data.

You need to be careful when citing percentage statistics as they need to be relative. Obama started with such poor metrics an increase could look good on paper as these metrics were so far in the gutter. @AM64 could better answer it as he can better articulate, but example:

One increases from a 100 to 150. 50% growth
One increase from 150 to 210. 40% growth but has a better net.

Job participation rates, full time vs part time jobs, etc could also account for differences.

Only a democrat/socialist could get away with calling a female voter a lying dog faced pony soldier. I have to admit I don't have a clue what a pony soldier is

I give Joe a pass on this. The Boomer generation has a million of these sayings. I don't think he had any malice in saying that. However the millennials have not been brought up hearing things like this. It's more touchey feely you are great and if someone says something like this they are taught you must be offended.

So Dem's, is the economy good or not?

The big hoot with them nowdays is Obozo is the one that's made the economy what it is today.
Only after Obozo has been out of Office now for what.... only 4 years now. That's funny.......right?
Only thing that Obozo did was give us that scam ACA thing that never even worked right.
 
Yep, totally Obama and not videos like this



We just had our 3rd officer involved shooting here in Greeneville tonight in 6 months. Thank God they were white folks. The one tonight died in the parking lot at Lowe's at about 6:00 p.m. The dead man was a Cocke County Tennessee Corrections officer in uniform. He apparently tried to run over a woman he was dating, left and came back and pointed a gun at the Greeneville cop. Our guys are trigger happy.
