That shining "god" Obama couldn't even with nearly a $1 trillion in shovel ready jobs do this!

[healthmyths]

There never could have been a "worse" environment for businesses trying to recover then when a President makes these really terrible anti-business anti-capital statements!

 

[healthmyths]

Obama got us out of a recession. Trump is riding his wave .

Funny how obamas policies never worked until he left office. As a business guy, obama leaving office was the best thing he did for us

See the unemployment graph that’s been posted .

Did trump go back in time and save employment years before he ran?

Worst recession recovery since the great depression

Also worst recession since Great Depression. You think it's possible that bigger recessions take longer to recover from or no?

Well one thing for sure you can't have a recovery of businesses if a President allows this type of massive growth of rules and regulations...
I mean seriously... when Obamacare said if you have 50 or more employees you need as an employer to get health insurance. Well guess what...
if you as an employer had 48 employees and wanted to expand your business by hiring 3 more... why would you if all your "expansion' revenue was going to consumed by a
health insurance plan? Hence many employers went to part time!

This never happened under Obama... NEVER!
There now are more job openings in the U.S. than unemployed workers to fill them
There are more job openings in the U.S. than unemployed workers to fill them.
It’s the first time that has happened since the government began tracking job openings in 2000.
There were a record 6.7 million job openings in April, the Labor Department reported Tuesday. That was an increase from an upwardly revised 6.63 million in March.
The revised data show that job openings outstripped total unemployed workers in March for the first time, and the trend continued in April.
There now are more job openings in the U.S. than unemployed workers to fill them

But this is not what you claimed, you claimed that things "turned around", so if this is the case then you should be able to provide at least one economic indicator that turned around after the election.

As has been shown in this thread, unemployment did not, it has been heading steadily down for the past 6 years.

And you are correct, that Obama never had more jobs that people, but Trump did not start his term with in the middle of a recession with an 8% unemployment rate. So I could say that Trump has never cut the UE rate in half, so he is worse than Obama...would that make much sense?

So, I will ask you again, can you provide just one economic indicator that turned around after the election.

Not eight years, no. Funny how we recovered just when obama left

Oh come on now, even you are not this stupid and partisan.

Let me try this with you...can you provide at least one economic indicator that turned around after the election.

Making Work Pay tax credit - Wikipedia

In years 2009 and 2010 Making Work Pay provided $400 annual credit for individuals or $800 for married taxpayers...making between $8,100 per year and $190,000 per year.

That's just ONE of many parts of Stimulus.

Peanuts in comparison.

Millions of Americans lost their homes. Millions more lost much of their wealth from the stock market crash. This was the consequence of criminal behavior on the part of big banks. yet obama bailed them out and prosecuted no one.

Sorry but TARP was a GWB action and was totally paid back under Obama who counted it as revenue (including the profits!) and Obama still ran up the worst deficits than the 5 preceding Presidents!

Yet all he did was bail out big corps, while doing nothing for the average citizen.

Bullshit. Straight up, clueless bullshit.

many components of stimulus directly and indirectly benefited the average citizen. Starting with "making work pay" tax credits.

Look buddy, you got not the slightest clue what you are talking about. Obama and Stimulus didn't cause people to lose their homes, Great Recession did.

Bush signed, Obama administered TARP helped stabilize our financial system and "big banks" repaid it back to government with interest.

Obama's expansionary economic policies certainly helped us climb out of the ditch and get where we are today. I know it's going to be a shock for you but that didn't happen overnight when Trump got into office - it took years and years of consistent growth.

...and the fact remains Obama bailed out the rich and did almost nothing for the vast majority of Americans, who were screwed by the rich Obama bailed out.

I did just fine during W's and Bo's Great Recession, but I know a lot of Americans didn't. Seems to me the rich got a big share of the pie, but the rest of America got screwed. I find this unacceptable. Do you?

Obama bragged all about the "shovel ready" jobs he had lined up to put Americans to work.

Those shovels were still hanging in the tool shed, new and unused. ...

In reality 200 billion was for infrastructure jobs and the program just ended up lasting and working longer. Thanks for another corrupt GOP world depression... Only cost the u.s. and the EU 8 trillion dollars each to avert full blown suffering. The Middle East and sub-Saharan Africa did the full-blown thing...

Other than that I work at the local level to get 3rd party candidates elected and vote only for 3rd party on the national level if there is that option.

A report Thursday from ADP and Moody’s Analytics cast an even brighter light on what is becoming one of the most important economic stories of 2018:
the difficulty employers are having in finding qualified employees to fill a record 6.7 million job openings.

• Truck drivers are in perilously low supply,
• on Valley continues to struggle to fill vacancies, and
• empSilicloyers across the grid are coping with a skills mismatch

as the economy edges ever closer to full employment.

“Business’ number one problem is finding qualified workers. At the current pace of job growth, if sustained, this problem is set to get much worse,” Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics, said in a statement. “These labor shortages will only intensify across all industries and company sizes.”
The U.S. labor shortage is reaching a critical point

Now WHY does a Trump presidency provide a business environment where THERE ARE MORE JOBS available than people to fill them?
Maybe because during our "deified God" presidency and I'm not making that up...read what a hardened
"professional journalist said about Obama...
Evan Thomas, Editor of NewsWeek...
"I mean in a way Obama's standing above the country, above above the world, he's sort of God."
Newsweek’s Evan Thomas: Obama Is ‘Sort of God’

Despite the miserable results from the $48 billion spent on infrastructure in the $787 billion American Reinvestment and Recovery Act, President Obama’s recently-proposed American Jobs Act includes $50 billion for new infrastructure projects to be funded through the creation of a government-run infrastructure bank
The Shovel-Ready Jobs Swindle

And it was so evident that EVEN OBAMA said there never were "shovel ready jobs"!
"Remember ‘shovel-ready projects.' Those were construction projects in the 2009 stimulus bill that were supposed to get moving right away ... ‘Shovel-ready was not as shovel-ready as we expected,' Obama said." (David Jackson, "Obama Jokes About 'Shovel-Ready Projects'," USA Today, 6/13/11)

There are more jobs because Republicans are a fairly stupid people.

What are they qualified for?

• Truck drivers are in perilously low supply,
• Silicon Valley continues to struggle to fill vacancies, and
• employers across the grid are coping with a skills mismatch

Truck driving is hard work. Republicans don't do hard work.

Silicon Valley? Republicans? Hilarious.

Skills mismatch?

Skills Republicans have:
