Median Household Incomes D O W N under Obama! I Do Mean D-O-W-N

[EconChick]

No matter how you spin it the downturn didn't happen on Jan, 2009. Nope, median income was falling before Obama took office. The answer is simple. The economic cycle and the political cycle do not match.

Yes, it just fell far further and far faster once the fuckup in Chief started monkeying with it...

LOL, Uncensored. You always make me chuckle about serious topics.

So with everything Obama has tried to spin or lie about, he's not been able to dispute this OP: Median household incomes are nowhere near as high as they were under Bush.

And the economy is about to get worse.

 

[LoneLaugher]

Median incomes are on the rise while unemployment is down. The stock market is setting records while the deficit falling.

Good news and the economy is getting better.

But not good enough, idiot.

Not even close to what Bush accomplished for the middle class. MORON.

Just read the polls.

What polls? You have some polls comparing Bush and Obama? Let's see them.

You're going to seriously say you haven't seen poll after poll after poll saying how bad Obama is??

Of course you are, because you're a pathological liar.

But no one believes your shit.

Median incomes are actually down by 8% compared to before the recession even started. IDIOT. Everyone knows Obama is a failure.

Obama doesn't set wages.

What did Bush do, specifically?

 

[EconChick]

You're kidding, right? Is Bush president???????

You wreak of desperation. Democrats are running away from Obama like they're on fire because of his performance on issues LIKE THIS ONE!!

And no matter how many liberals spin it differently, median income is STILL down under Obama. STILL DOWN.

No matter how you spin it the downturn didn't happen on Jan, 2009. Nope, median income was falling before Obama took office. The answer is simple. The economic cycle and the political cycle do not match.

Clearly we were in a recession when Obama took office, the thing that didn't happen when Obama took over that normally does happen is ... a recovery ...

So, wait...you're claiming that Obama can (personally???) manipulate the employment numbers, the unemployment numbers, the GDP, but NOT household income?

Who said he is manipulating the GDP?

As for employment/unemployment, the way it's done is changing who you count. You don't make up numbers, you say unemployment is down by just not counting people. How do you change median income like that? People at median income are overwhelmingly w-2 employees reporting w-2 income, that's an easy measure and they report it all on their taxes. Give an example how you can easily change that like you can easily change who you count as unemployed?

Exactly. And Pinqy knows that.

Same with GDP number.

Bush inherited the recession part of Clinton's cycle as well.

The difference is that W was responsible for a recession that effectively started six months before he became President and he's still responsible for a recession that's continuing six years after he left office. So he's now been responsible for 14 12 years of economics when he spent 8 years as President. That's how liberal math works.

LOL. I bet you could make a lot of money teaching a course with that meme....there are a lot of dummies that would buy it.

Wait....that's what most Keynesian run economy departments do in our colleges and universities....

Ok, I'm being a little bit hard on our Keynesian Econ Dept's...but not by much.

I have to go see if there's a link that shows what Chris Wallace said about the 8% number in my earlier post. Btw I don't know if people know this but Chris Wallace is a registered Democrat.

Median incomes are up since 2011. They are on the way up. Unemployment is on the way down. This is fact and it is good.

This president has overseen an improvement in the US economy.

Tailwinds, bitch. Tailwinds.

That's wonderful news! Wallace is a registered Democrat? Cool. I'm not.

The country was not in recession in July of 2000.
