Well the GDP was already the best before Obama took office and growth has slowed more then when Bush was in office. Therefore we are doing worse under Obama not better. I will admit there are other factors involved that the president has zero control over. However in no way is it an accomplishment.
More Americans have health insurance yes but it's unsustainable and is doomed to fail. Canada is a good example of Socialism in healthcare. Plus it's a rob Peter to pay Paul situation which is wrong. Also the quality of healthcare degrades due to fraud/abuse. The government has no business in healthcare. If you can't afford healthcare that's unfortunate but the onus does not fall on those who can.
The unemployment rate does not account for those who are no longer looking for work and becomes a useless statistic.

None of your points fit the "saved America" line your towing. We are worse off than when Bush left office and Bush was terrible so that speaks volumes to Obama's failure. He has also failed miserably on the world stage. Everything he gets involved in seems to only make matters worse.

What point do u want to address first ? The "3%" thing ? Which I have pointed out is an odd stat invented by conservatives to downplay the rebounding economy . Something like " he hasn't had 3 quarters in a row of 3% growth." Totally bizzare ?!

 

[Timmy]

And employment is 4.9% . That's a fact .

Now conservatives pull out this "workforce participation " bullshit because they can't argue time tested "unemployment ".

"Lets add retirees and spoiled teenagers to our stat to imply all these people are out of work!"

An odd stat? Rebounding economy? Seriously, what the fuck? And obama hasn't ever had 3% growth. The longest slump in modern history.

By the way. Bush jumped ship right before it sank , it didn't hit bottom until Obamas first year.

Timmy, you're using Rush Limbaugh's MO.
GDP is meaningless when 1.x% have almost 99% of the wealth.

The stock market isn't the economy and if you believe 5.5% UE you are really sloooooooow.

I would love the UE stats if they were true. With over 92 million unemployed you'd have to be on drugs to buy it.

Now conservatives pull out this "workforce participation " bullshit because they can't argue time tested "unemployment ".

"Lets add retirees and spoiled teenagers to our stat to imply all these people are out of work!"

4.9% does not reflect everyone in America that is looking for work or is under employed.

Just because their unemployment benefits run out does not mean they are no longer unemployed.

If no one is technically looking for a job, the unemployment rate is 0%.

It's not supposed to be a measure of underemployment so that's hardly a legitimate complaint. And the only people looking for work not reflected are those who are not available to work that month (a college student in February looking for a job when she graduates in May is not considered unemployed because she would not take a job if offered.

Just because their unemployment benefits run out does not mean they are no longer unemployed.

Right. That's why the U.S. has never based the UE rate on unemployment benefits. The survey doesn't even ask.

If no one is technically looking for a job, the unemployment rate is 0%.

If there are 100 people applying for 10 jobs, then we know there's a job shortage. If there were 100 jobs available, but no one applied for any of them, then there is no job shortage, regardless of how many people aren't working.

Ok, let's take a look at the not seasonally adjust numbers for August.
Adult civilian noninstitutional population: 253,854,000

• In the labor market (working or looking and available): 159,8000
  • Working: 152,437,000
  • Looking and available for work: 7,996,000

Percent of those in the labor market who are not working 152,437,000/159,800,000 = 5%

• Not looking and/or not available: 94,054,000
  • Not looking because did not want a job in August: 88,230,000
  • Not looking but wanted a job: 5,824,000
    • Says wants a job but did nothing at all to get a job in the last 12 months: 3,498,000
    • Says wants job, tried to get a job in the last 12 months but not currently trying: 2,326,000
      • Not trying because couldn't accept a job in August if offered: 613,000
      • Available and willing but not trying to work: 1,713,000
        • Not trying because previously not available and hasn't started looking yet: 1,137,000
        • Not trying because believes no jobs available either in occupation or at all or believes inadequate skills/experience/education, or believes will be discriminated against. 576,000

What are you claiming is inaccurate?
