Some of us kept questioning the numbers because they never seemed to reflect reality. And now we've learned that 94% of the jobs being reported were part-time or temporary.

Damn liars. THAT is the legacy Obama leaves behind.

Haha no what's obvious in this thread is that Trump supporters refuse to accept facts and statistics that don't align with their twisted views.

Really?

Yeah sometimes you need to look things up.

U.S. Households Earning $100,000+
2009: 19.7%
2015: 25.9%

Number of U.S. Households Earning $100,000
2010: 22,872,918
2015: 29,328,570
2010-2015: +6,455,652

Also, Median Household Incomes include all types of households, be they single person, non family, family, married couple etc.

And that's fine, but look deeper.

Median Household Income(2015): $55,775
Median Family Income(2015): $68,290
Median Married-Couple Family Income(2015): $82,078

The moral of the story hasnt changed: People in strong family relationships are going to be more committed to each other and that translates to working together to building financial stability, hence American families and more specifically married-couple families are collectively the richest middle class in the world, are the largest consumer market in the world, and the greatest economic engine the world has ever known.

It's a shame that so many of you have invested so much time and energy in putting down your own country's success.

Right so millions of people have benefitted and seen their incomes rise and the Bay Area is the most entreprenureal zone in the country so not sure why you bring that up.

Life experience is the real deal - your articles don't tell the whole story but you don't use your intelligence to seek the truth only mimic what you hear and read. My condolences on not living in the real world - it may open your eyes.
How ironic. Lol

Ironic indeed. 5% at the top, no middle class, and a huge underclass.

This speaks for itself. (and the Guardian is a left leaning rag)

More than one-third of schoolchildren are homeless in shadow of Silicon Valley



Your topic has failed. Obama is leaving behind an economy that hasn't been this bad since the days before WWII.

Blah Blah Blah the twitter troll you put into office better not mess things up.

Until Donald Trump adds 15 million jobs under his belt, nothing he says will be anything more than a swindling BSer spewing hot air.

Get back to me when he delivers. Until then, yawns.

Yeah, I'm finding this really tough to believe. How can this be, when we lost 2 million since 2015 ?

Fake news. There are fewer people working than when he took office despite population growth and immigration.
