May 5, 201214 yr 8.5 percent unemployment in 2009.. About the same as now plus trillions more in debt.. Plus it will cost trillions more to sustain Obamas policies with no means to address the debt.. What do you consider the light at the end?? You can claim it's the same all you want, post daily about how he's wrecking the economy. The facts however show just the opposite. It's not all the way back but it's a heck of a lot better than the guys you voted for left it. The graph doesn't lie.
May 5, 201214 yr This may be a dumb question/statement but it is sincere. I was born in 1974. How many years have we been in debt in my life? I don't know and am asking for knowledge. With the USA as highly populated as it is now isn't it within reason to be in debt? Again...I am searching for knowledge and insight and not being sarcastic or trying to be funny. I am curious and have no clue. It seems to me like the more people there are the more problems there are. If the USA has never planned properly financially for the people of the USA how can any one POTUS fix the debt?
May 5, 201214 yr Author I always thought Clinton had us debt free, not sure. But economy was great under him, Obama should have named him Sec. Of getting us out of debt again.

May 5, 201214 yr We were almost debt free, check out the chart. National Debt Graph by President We were? I missed that on the chart.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]36482[/ATTACH] You can post all the charts you want but according to this weeks jobs reports there are less people working now than at any time since 1981...
May 5, 201214 yr We're never "debt free." You mean "balanced budget." If memory serves, we were debt free under President Andrew Jackson. If I weren't too lazy, I'd Google it and find out.

It may be inconvenient for those with OBD (Obama Derangement Syndrome), but there it is, Exhibit A in why we should reelect President Obama.
May 5, 201214 yr Author We were? I missed that on the chart. Was doing good with Carter and if Regan and Bushs had balanced budgets then we could have been debt free, at least according to the what if chart.

If you like charts read this one.. The actual unemployment is 11.1. The chart doesn't lie. What Is the Real Unemployment Rate? 11.1 Percent? | The Weekly Standard

May 5, 201214 yr If job creation is the be-all, end-all here; I'm not getting how ANYONE can be hep on candidate Romney. His job creation figures as governor were close to abominable. 47th out of 50 states. I guess the thinking is that what he failed to do on a state level he will do better on a national scale.
