Unemployment at a 4 year low...

[Cancel 2016.11]

Because it didn't. The economic collapse was due to the financial sector... the removal of Glass Steagall, the insanely low interest rates, the push for more and more home lending (which began long before Bush took office and is attributable to both parties), the insanely high leverage at banks, and the greed of lenders/borrowers sums up why the financial system went haywire.

Lefty pinhead! Citing Krugman, LMAO! Stupid bitch!

It took four years to get back to where we were in the weeks after BushII's 8 years.

Using Obama's tactics it obviously takes far longer.....he's on five and he isn't even close yet.....

Tell us how... where did the money go that was spent on the wars? How did that spending cause the economic collapse?

I have no problem citing him. Most of the time he provides great examples of how partisanship can destroy economic theory. This time he happens to have been correct. Must have been sober for this chat.

A long slow recovery is generally longer lasting and better than a quick one. It is also true that the worse the fall, the longer it takes to recover. Bush's fall was the second worse in history.

Please cite the source you are using that states a long slow recovery is better.

Obama is in office and it's been a long slow recovery so therefore it must be good. (Jarod logic)

As with most things economicor not, the longer they last the stronger that result is. The slower a system's development took, the more stable that system it. Its basic logic and comes from observations of the way the world works.

It is growth, and the economist I have read state that slow growth with economic sustainability is the future.

In my business, if I have a great month, I am happy.... but I dont take that as any indication that the next month will be as great....


If, however, I see a long slow steady increase in my business's income, I feel more comfortable and assured that the next month will very likely follow the pattern.

It only makes sense.

Um, sorry Jarod, but that is not correct. The Great Depression lasted a long friggin time... how was that recovery 'good'? It was long and drawn out over a decade.

It is not basic logic jarod, it is absurdity.

I disagree.

I disagree.

So you think the Great Depression was a good recovery?

Well, it's not called The Great Recovery, it's called The Great Depression.

Are you claiming the entire Great Depression was a recovery?
