It’s frustrating when so many on this site (and our President himself) tout the stock market and employment gains as a rallying cry as to why he is so great when by most measures the economy under Obama was at least as good if not better. And yes, The Obama economy started in the crapper so there was pretty much nowhere to go but up, but using that line of thinking shouldn’t we blame Bush for driving it into the dirt? For the record, I believe fault for the 2008 crash goes at least back to the Clinton administration and possibly as far back as Reagan, so no I don’t blame Bush, at least not totally.
I can’t say I totally disagree with this. Not sure how far back it goes but Bush definitely did not help things. He started the kindling and Obama threw the gas on it.
Again I think that shows the resolve of the American economy. Short term pain will come along but Capitalism allows it to flourish even with outside influences that may not be friendly to it.

Yea Mike, take a look at the oil and gas industry for a prime example.... Obummer did everything he could to cause this industry to collapse. He killed infrastructure projects (ie: Keystone Pipeline and others), banned key areas to drilling and production, poured on burdensome restrictions, etc., etc... The oil and gas industry thrived IN SPITE of him NOT because of him. Now, it's quite the opposite... we (especially Texas) are producing oil and gas to our own detriment... Plus new reserves are being found almost weekly to carry us well into the future...

Originally posted by Stuck View PostYes and no. Congress passed ACA and sent it to the senate, the senate rewrote it and sent it back to Congress. Congress didn’t like like it and all the dems were arguing about different things. In the mean time Scott Brown won a special election to take away the dems majority in the Senate. Obama got involved with the dem heavy congress and basically told them they have to pass what the senate sent back months earlier or the bill is dead. “We have to pass it to find out what’s in it.”

I still remember the night when Trump got elected and Hillary troops cried on national tv, yup, brought a tear to my eye too knowing my kids were just blessed with another 4 years of normality. Everyone said stock market would crash, went to bed happy as a lark but worried about the 401k. Next day DOW up 700 and been steady since. I guess deep down even the traders on wall street knew obama clintons sucked. come on 2020, ready to scalp pocahontas . God Bless America, dont like it I dont care
