After more than 4 years and 100% of the economic policies he called for, the US economy has gotten exponentially worse...
Record 89,304,000 Americans 'Not in Labor Force' -- 296,000 Fewer Employed Since January
The number of Americans designated as "not in the labor force" in February was 89,304,000, a record high, up from 89,008,000 in January, according to the Department of Labor. This means that the number of Americans not in the labor force increased 296,000 between January and February.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) labels people who are unemployed and no longer looking for work as "not in the labor force," including people who have retired on schedule, taken early retirement, or simply given up looking for work. The increase marks the second month in a row, after rising in January from 88.8 million in December. Those not in the labor force had declined in December from 88.9 million in November.

Please explain to me: How is it while Clinton was in office, this country saw some of it's greatest economic activity since the boom after WWII. Then ole' Bushy took office, and within 8 years, we had managed to drag not only ourselves, but the entire world, into one of the worst recessions we had seen since the Great Depression. Then you seek to blame Obama for the shit we are in. haha
Please explain to me, how Obama was supposed to wave a magic wand and fix everything overnight (which in politics is 4 years)? Especially when you have an entire party dedicated to blocking any idea he proposes. And yet you sit here and expect him to get shit done. haha If only we were a dictatorship, maybe we could hope for that.
But seriously...enlighten me please!
Actually..................if you think about it....................he DID wave the magic wand and get things accomplished in 4 years (1 term).
The stock market is hitting record highs (even better than when Jr. was in office), unemployment has come down (it's now at 7.7 percent), and the housing market is coming back.
And that was all done in his first term.
If we could get the GOP to quit blocking him, how much better could this country be?
