58 straight months of jobs growth, ACA working great where allowed to, where is this bad economy?

[Faun]

None of those hurricanes occurred in FY 2003 or 2006 -- which you called the "worst hurricane seasons."

And all of those combined pale in comparison to Hurricane Bush, which cost us something like $30 trillion and 12 million jobs.

YOU are one of the most ignorant DUMMYs I've ever met!
I SAID "$1 trillion in losses due to the WORST Hurricane SEASONS in history."
I didn't single out single seasons... I said during Bush's administration.....2001 to 2008!
PLUS you idiot there was hurricanes in 2003 and 2006...

Year 2001: September 11 Terrorist Attacks
The 9/11 terrorist attacks were the events that helped shape other financial events of the decade. After that terrible day in September 2001, our economic climate was never to be the same again. It was only the third time in history that the New York Stock Exchange was shut down for a period of time. In this case, it was closed from September 10 - 17. Besides the tragic human loss of that day, the economic loss cannot even be estimated. Some estimate that there was over $60 billion in insurance losses alone. Airlines didn't fly for 3 days!
Approximately 18,000 small businesses were either displaced or destroyed in Lower Manhattan after the Twin Towers fell. There was a buildup in homeland security on all levels. 9/11 caused a catastrophic financial loss for the U.S.

The 2001 anthrax attacks in the United States, also known as Amerithrax from its Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) case name, occurred over the course of several weeks beginning on Tuesday, September 18, 2001, one week after the September 11 attacks. Letters containing anthrax spores were mailed to several news media offices and two DemocraticU.S. Senators, killing five people and infecting 17 others.

4) $1 trillion in losses due to the WORST Hurricane SEASONS in history.
The worst, Katrina made landfall in Louisiana as a Category 3 in 2005. It took 1,836 lives and caused $81.2 billion in damages. It quickly became the biggest natural disaster in U.S. history, almost destroying New Orleans due to severe flooding.

Historical Federal Receipt and Outlay Summary

Largest Gross Domestic Product in history!!
When Bush took office in 2001 GDP was $12.355,271,000,000
when Bush left office in 2008 GDP was $14,359,490,000,000
A 16% increase in GDP or $2 TRILLION.
So how did those 4 gigantic events affect the Gross Domestic Product from 2000 to 2009?

So starting in 2001 132,548,000 people were working.
At the end of 2008 138,056,000 people working..

IN spite of recession, dot.com bust, 9/11, worst hurricanes.... MORE people were working... more tax revenue was collected. GDP grew!

But IDIOTS like you FFOs and LIPs ..............
WHY is it so hard for idiots like you to RECOGNIZE that these EVENTS cost jobs?

Moron, I went through some of those. Again, you listed a bunch of tropical storms and hurricanes that didn't even touch the U.S. You then call those, the "worst hurricane seasons." You're a moron and you prove it all the time.

MY whole point about hurricane stuff was to point out that IN SPITE of those gigantic life changing events, hurricanes, 9/11/dot.com bust,
recessions the economy GREW at a faster rate then today under Obama who has had NONE of those events!

IN spite of those economic,life loss events..

Historical Federal Receipt and Outlay Summary

Largest Gross Domestic Product in history!!
When Bush took office in 2001 GDP was $12.355,271,000,000
when Bush left office in 2008 GDP was $14,359,490,000,000
A 16% increase in GDP or $2 TRILLION.
So how did those 4 gigantic events affect the Gross Domestic Product from 2000 to 2009?

So starting in 2001 132,548,000 people were working.
At the end of 2008 138,056,000 people working..

IN spite of recession, dot.com bust, 9/11, worst hurricanes.... MORE people were working... more tax revenue was collected. GDP grew!

But IDIOTS like you FFOs and LIPs ..............
WHY is it so hard for idiots like you to RECOGNIZE that these EVENTS cost jobs?

Moron, I went through some of those. Again, you listed a bunch of tropical storms and hurricanes that didn't even touch the U.S. You then call those, the "worst hurricane seasons." You're a moron and you prove it all the time.

um no YOU'RE the moron. you and every other idiot trying to brag bout the "success" of an economy under obama that has seen the very richest and basically ONLY the very richest get richer, and the poorest get poorer, both at A FASTER PACE under obama then was happening under bush and Republican

the hurricane stuff, and every thing else is a disraction by left-wing idiots

As you've been shown, the poor got righer under Obama. Something that didn't happen under any other president going back at least to Reagan.

And a reason you're a moron is because you still can't grasp this even though you've been shown this before. You don't learn.

the reason you're an idiot is you lie to your self. the richest got richer under obama, the poorest got poorer

thanks for playing though

Can someone help this rightard loser read a graph...?

Well to me one of those NOT in the 95th% and being an old fashion believer in MY determining MY future I guess that leaves me
with more desire to become one of those in the at least 90th% i.e. I am not desirous of depending on the government to help me as
so far under Obama it shows he is MORE happy with MORE people unemployed or working less hours and more people getting food stamps!
To me that is a recipe for society decline as the more people depend on the government it appears the worse off they become!

You don't have a clue to what you're talking about and you're just making shit up because you like the way it sounds.

Even worse for you, you're idiotically posting nominal figures and you're comparing 96 months under Bush againsst 78 months under Obama. In real numbers, GDP under Bush grew 1.9%; 1.8% under Obama.

And even with you posting nominal figures, your math is wrong. Nominally, GDP increased 38.9% under Bush and 22.6% under Obama. Who knows how you came up with 41.7% and 17.9%?

Year 2001: September 11 Terrorist Attacks
The 9/11 terrorist attacks were the events that helped shape other financial events of the decade. After that terrible day in September 2001, our economic climate was never to be the same again. It was only the third time in history that the New York Stock Exchange was shut down for a period of time. In this case, it was closed from September 10 - 17. Besides the tragic human loss of that day, the economic loss cannot even be estimated. Some estimate that there was over $60 billion in insurance losses alone. Airlines didn't fly for 3 days!
Approximately 18,000 small businesses were either displaced or destroyed in Lower Manhattan after the Twin Towers fell. There was a buildup in homeland security on all levels. 9/11 caused a catastrophic financial loss for the U.S.

Historical Federal Receipt and Outlay Summary

Largest Gross Domestic Product in history!!
When Bush took office in 2001 GDP was $12.355,271,000,000
when Bush left office in 2008 GDP was $14,359,490,000,000
A 16% increase in GDP or $2 TRILLION.
So how did those 4 gigantic events affect the Gross Domestic Product from 2000 to 2009?

So starting in 2001 132,548,000 people were working.
At the end of 2008 138,056,000 people working..

IN spite of recession, dot.com bust, 9/11, worst hurricanes.... MORE people were working... more tax revenue was collected. GDP grew!

But IDIOTS like you FFOs and LIPs ..............
WHY is it so hard for idiots like you to RECOGNIZE that these EVENTS cost jobs?

Moron, I went through some of those. Again, you listed a bunch of tropical storms and hurricanes that didn't even touch the U.S. You then call those, the "worst hurricane seasons." You're a moron and you prove it all the time.

um no YOU'RE the moron. you and every other idiot trying to brag bout the "success" of an economy under obama that has seen the very richest and basically ONLY the very richest get richer, and the poorest get poorer, both at A FASTER PACE under obama then was happening under bush and Republican

the hurricane stuff, and every thing else is a disraction by left-wing idiots

MY whole point about hurricane stuff was to point out that IN SPITE of those gigantic life changing events, hurricanes, 9/11/dot.com bust,
recessions the economy GREW at a faster rate then today under Obama who has had NONE of those events!

IN spite of those economic,life loss events..
So how did those 4 gigantic events affect the Gross Domestic Product from 2000 to 2009?
Largest Gross Domestic Product in history!!
When Bush took office in 2001 GDP was $10,622,000,000,000
when Bush left office in 2008 GDP was $14,719,000,000,000
A 41.7% increase in GDP or $4.4 TRILLION.

Obama? With NO Major events like hurricanes,9/11,dot.com/etc.... GDP growth:17.87%!
Bush GDP increased 41.7% while all those events occurred .... Obama with NO events.... 17.87%!

And here is why you remain a fucking retard .... "Obama? With NO Major events like hurricanes,9/11,dot.com/etc.... GDP growth:17.87%!"

Obama had to deal with Hurricane Bush, whose wake of destruction crated the economy, cost us tens of trillions of dollars, some 12 million jobs, more than all of the disasters combined.

Even worse for you, you're idiotically posting nominal figures and you're comparing 96 months under Bush againsst 78 months under Obama. In real numbers, GDP under Bush grew 1.9%; 1.8% under Obama.

And even with you posting nominal figures, your math is wrong. Nominally, GDP increased 38.9% under Bush and 22.6% under Obama. Who knows how you came up with 41.7% and 17.9%?

http://www.bea.gov/national/xls/gdplev.xls

you continue to embarrass yourself. when you say "hurricane bush" you ought to be adult enough, at a very minimum; be able to show folks what of the so-called destructive policies of Bush that your own jackass party actually opposed, instead of VOTING FOR REPEATEDLY, and continuing the vast majority of them long after Bush was gone

Anyone with a brain, which excludes you, knows I'm talking about the Great Recession Bush handed Obama. And while Bush alone was not the cause, he had help from his Republican Congress, the hurricane is named after him since he was leading the country.

Still waiting for an answer .... how many times did you vote for Bush?

 

[bedowin62]

NOTHING YOU SAY adds up. yet you keep getting angrier and more unhinged, posting charts and stuff. Progressives that are honest, and even your messiah obama himself, has admitted 95% of the income gains on his watch went to that "ONE PERCENT" you idiots love to spew hate on and about

It really isn't my fault you are too dumb to read a chart.

it also isnt my fault you're too much of a coward to make your own point without relying on a chart. you got your chart. i got mine. mine were provided by LEFT-WINGERS that dispute what you are saying. i didnt use Fox or any right-wing source..you're simply a crybaby

[Faun]

allow me to make it easy on you ok Faun? when you say Hurrican Bush; let's take the easy route and display for everybody reading these posts what bush/republican polices THAT YOU BLAME FOR THE "HURRICANE" CALLED BUSH that your own Donkey Prty DIDNT vote FOR, vote to EXTEND, to FUND, and to CONTINUE, REPEATEDLY over not only the 8 bush years, but long after he was gone

because THAT list is MUCH shorter than the list of things you idiots want to blame on bush but in reality you voted FOR

Their policies which led to the real-estate bubble, which ultimately collapsed and took the economy down with it. You know, the policies Bush took credit for prior to the collapse ...
