Tiberius Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 If you were only answering my argument regarding the slowness of this recovery then why did you say this regarding the linked article in the OP? What are the conclusions that the author draws that you want us to challenge? Calling on you to prove your own argument, which you are completely unwilling to do. You do still contend that this recovery is historically slow, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All a person needs to do is actually look at the unemployment statistics to know what a scam the government is trying to perpetrate on the American people.

How can you know whether there's a recovery or not? There's no historical reference for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPS Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 And just like that, someone posts a link to a source even more brain dead than Forbes. Well, the actual data is positive on the deficit.... http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-09-11/u-s-budget-deficit-for-11-months-shrinks-22-as-economy-grows.html As I've said would happen, deficits are down to sustainable levels, as the deficit/GDP ratio is <3%. The sky is still up there.... No sign of the (hyper) inflation bogeyman either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob's House Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 What are the conclusions that the author draws that you want us to challenge? The only conclusion I saw was that Obama gives the author a boner. Calling on you to prove your own argument, which you are completely unwilling to do. You do still contend that this recovery is historically slow, right? The recovery isn't the only thing around here that's slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanker Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 You know, the unemployment rate would be around 3.5% if they didn't count African-Americans. They should probably drop them from the calculation like they drop the people who just stop looking for work because this regime doesn't care about either of those groups. But hey - bring in the hispanics 'cause they'll work for less! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDBillzFan Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 You know, the unemployment rate would be around 3.5% if they didn't count African-Americans. And it would be something like 11% if you didn't count Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chef Jim Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 BTW what does Obama outperforming Reagan on investing mean? Did he buy Apple at $25? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't compare the current market performance to historical performance. The S&P's made up of different companies now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Doesn't matter. You can't compare the current market performance to historical performance. The S&P's made up of different companies now. And the Fed is acting in a very different manner now than in early 1980's. Nothing to do with either president but very important to stock market.

Tiberius Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 So the recession Reagan had to deal with wasn't nearly as severe as the one Obama inherited from Bush. What does that do to the "historical average" I wonder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
