Right we should just trust your anecdotes instead lol. I have read it. 7 out of the 9 best studies on the subjectThese 9 scholarly articles trump your anecdotes:That’s easy. He was responsible for the biggest middle class tax cut since Reagan. His stimulus package was shown to reverse the recession he inherited within months of it being implemented. The extended UE benefits that went to the millions of people who lost their jobs boosted consumer spending and thus created jobs. That’s capitalism 101. This is a consumer driven, demand side economy. Republicans apparently don’t understand that.So what did DumBama ever do for the economy? I just explained that it takes action in order to credit somebody for something. What did he do to help job creators to create jobs? Commie Care or Commie Care fines? Raising their taxes? Trying to raise their fuel prices? More regulations? What????
I'll be happy to give anybody credit if they did something to deserve it. Otherwise, they were just in the right place at the right time.
Correct, I don't understand that. My next door neighbor was on unemployment for two years during that time. He laughed about it, calling it a two year paid vacation. He didn't spend any more money than when he was working. That's ridiculous. When he was finally out of benefits, he went to work for his brother-in-law; something he had the option of doing all along.
His tax cut was a few measly dollars per paycheck that robbed Social Security, which is another problem in our future. I got paid every two weeks, and barely noticed much of a difference. You can't stimulate an economy that way.
His stimulus package didn't stimulate anything. The only thing that helped the economy was the feds dumping trillions of dollars into the stock market. During his second term, fuel prices took a drastic downturn thanks to fracking--something DumBama and the Democrats are against. That gave Americans across the board more disposable income. Speaking of which, Warren stated if she is elected President, her first order of business is to write an EO to stop all fracking in the United States. That's what the Democrats want to do.

How would you know, you didn't even read it, and I'm not about to subscribe to read it either.
