This thread proves that conservatives are scared to death of Bill Maher's truthtelling.
What truth?
Under Reagan, the economy grew by an average of 5.6 percent for the first three years from the bottom of the recession, unemployment dropped by 3.8 points, and inflation was cut by two-thirds.
Under Obama, the three years of economic growth from the bottom of the recession only averaged 2.2 percent, unemployment dropped by only 1.8 points, and inflation has increased by more than 2 full percentage points.
Obama has consistently missed his employment and growth targets. Reagan exceeded his growth, employment, and inflation targets.
Growth under Reagan was much better than growth under Obama.
The Strange Ups and Downs of the U.S. Economy Since 1929
Regan - 3.7%
Obama - 2.4%
The largest downturn since the first GOP great depression is deeper and wider than Ronnie's recession which happened AFTER he gutted taxes for the rich?
3.7% under Ronnie? How much WAS inflation?
