Oh, that's right...if you don't throw out the job losses of 2009...then you can't come up with your total...can you?

That's including job losses. Hence, "net" gain.

In February, 2010, there were 107,187,000 people employed in the private sector. Many found jobs, many lost jobs, many lost and then found jobs. But by the end of last month, after 58 consecutive months, we ended up with 118,402,000 people working.

That's a net gain of 11.2 million jobs.

 

[Oldstyle]

The way to "create" jobs is for the friggin government to get out of the way of business. Stop taxing them and regulating them out of business.

The US has become a nation hostile to business and then the stupid people that made it hostile wonders why we have low employment and why successful American businesses flee the country, duh.

The Republicans are a party of big government and not that much different than the Democrats. However, they are slightly better at stimulating capitalism and we generally do better when they are in charge. The Republicans are always better than the Democrats but that is not saying much because the Democrats are so terrible. It doesn't take much to be better than those butt pirates.

As long as we have this corrupt incompetent big bloated government that collects over 40% of the GNP (combined fed, state and local) this country is never going to live up to its potential.

Yeah, sure ... that's why we've had 58 consecutive months of job growth to the tune of a net gain of 11.2 million jobs.

Net gain, Faun? Really?

Yes, really.

Why did you start in 2/10?

Because 2/10 was 58 months ago.

So Barack Obama has only been President for 58 months? Gosh, who was running the country when W. went back to Crawford, Texas?

Unlike how conservatives 'think' the economy turns on a dime, it took awhile to stop Dubya/GOP's policy from damaging US? I mean the economy dumped 9%+ the last quarter of Dubya remember? AND was losing 700,000+ jobs a month when Obama came in???

W's policies...specifically TARP are what turned the economy back around! The recession officially ended back in 2009 because of the very unpopular steps that Bush took to stabilize the economy. What we've seen SINCE then has been six years of a total lack of an economic plan to create jobs and stimulate the economy.

Ummm, TARP was not a stimulus package. Care to explain how a non-stimulus package stimulated the economy? Or are you just desperately seeking for a solution to credit Bush with?

Dad23 kicking your all's ass AGAIN,

"Clinton's 1993 (DEM party without ONE GOP vote) budget cuts, which reduced projected red ink by more than $400 billion over five years, sparked a major drop in interest rates that helped boost investment in all the equipment and systems that brought forth the New Age economy of technological innovation and rising productivity."
— Business Week, May 19, 1997

Here you go oldstyle. One simple paragraph from Business Week. Did Clinton sign budget cuts with NO Republicans going along that reduced projected red ink by 400 billion over 5 years.

For some reason the writers at Business Week believed that he (Clinton) did do that. D23 believes that. I believe that.

So you should be able to easily prove both D23 and Business Week wrong. Like you all say D23 is wrong all the time. Piece of cake. You are gonna do it, right? Prove what he posted about Clinton was wrong.

Since I wasn't having that discussion with Dad, why would I need to prove something that I didn't state in the first place? I believe that's an argument that someone else was making.

"Since I wasn't having that discussion with Dad, why would I need to prove something that I didn't state in the first place?"


OLDIE:


You don't rely on "facts", Dad! You distort what's factual to fit your naive and uninformed views and then spam disinformation! You're the very ESSENCE of an internet "troll".

lol, You are to funny Bubba, NOT honest, but funny

So you think that the millions of Americans who worked in the Private Sector and got laid off...forcing them to burn up their life's savings...while public sector employees and companies like Solyndra got billions is "funny"? Interesting concept you have about humor.

 

[Dad2three]

The agenda should be to repeal obungocare and regulations on business. Jobs will magically appear.

Jobs are appearing now, Neil...simply because business people trying to predict what might happen in the future no longer have to worry about the progressive wing of the Democratic Party passing Cap & Trade legislation that will increase their energy costs to an unsustainable level. It's one more concern taken out of the equation when job creators sit down to decide whether or not to go ahead with expansion.

Actually, jobs have been appearing for 5 years now. Especially in the private sector which is currently up to it's 58th consecutive month of job growth. That makes it the longest stretch of job growth recorded in U.S. history.

And where are those jobs appearing, Faun? What's driving this new economic surge?

I can point out what his policies for coal have done to jobs in a State like West Virginia. Thanks to Barack Obama...they are dead last in jobs created.

YES, IT'S THE OVERALL FISCAL POLICY THAT BROUGHT STABILITY SO THE 'JOB CREATORS' WOULD CREATE JOBS, INCLUDING THE OIL INDUSTRY WHO NOW HAD DEMAND!!!!


The overall economy improved

1.7 MILLION? LOL

One poster has numerous sources of information he presents. It's real, it's sourced and the things written are verifiable. Like what it says or not, it's real information.

Another poster has an opinion that these sources of information is not credible. But you have no counter posts to show the supposed real information.

A plan to prevent a catastrophe is not a "stimulus" package just like evacuating people from a hurricane's path does not grow the city they're fleeing from. Whereas a stimulus package is designed to spur growth, just like sending building supplies to the said city wrecked by a hurricane.

Perhaps you'd like to explain how the Obama "Stimulus" fits your description then, Faun...since it did very little to spur growth. It did so little in fact that they had to invent a new economic statistic to hide how little it DID do for the nearly two trillion that they spent on it!
