this is , more than anything else, a result of the deleveraging housing bubble. Now , we have people engaging in some revisionist history, trying to blame the housing bubble on "liberals" and their "affordable lending." But those have all been debunked by the FCIC.

Now, if people would actually read the FCIC instead of sitting on your couch and watching Fox News, you might actually learn something for once. Unfortunately, it is a bit more complicated than Fox News, and might require more effort and brainpower than y'all are used to expending.

The OP wants to blame OBAMA for a downward trend that started 30 YEARS before he was elected !!!

Try actually reading his thread title !!!
Try looking at who controls congress during the trends. Liberals aren't good for business, that's for sure.

What I see, is that red line spike up (dissolving firms) in 2009 when obama officially took over, then falls a slight percentage, but not by hardly much. The green line (share of firms less then a year old), shows that there is barely any jobs being created.

no. the chart shows the red line (firms dissolving) rising sharply beginning in about 2007, not 2009.

Is that way economic growth under liberals usually is higher than under conservatives? Again, facts are not something you wingnuts seem to understand.
