Here's a stat for you: Median income under Bush down 4.2%. Median income Obama up 5.3%. So the average person did better under Obama than under Bush.
lol Of course it fell under Bush, that's when the economy went south. You didn't answer my questions.
Then why was welfare sky high when Obama left? Why was food stamp usage 50% higher than when he started and population grew by only 8%? Why for the first time ever are a majority of school children on free or assisted meals at school?
High taxes or not, CKE seemed to do just fine all these years.
Now under the great and booming economy, they've outsourced 90% of their jobs to other countries and moving the head honchos to Tennessee.
You think this is due to high state taxes?
Come on. Get serious.
Booming economy? lol How so?
Why not move to a more tax friendly state? (probably because of taxes it's still more profitable to move overseas.)
They could have moved because of high tariffs which is a tax.
I wonder if Trumps tariffs hurt their bottom line? Maybe he should bail him out with the peoples money even though I thought he said bailouts were bad, or maybe he said they were good. Dunno what he said "each time", but I know what works. Bailouts, tariffs and high taxes don't. Not saying you're saying they do.
Doing fine? By what standards? Wasn't GM doing fine and now - "GM's plan to cease operations at plants in Ohio, Michigan, Maryland and Ontario by next year — and to cut back production at two other plants, as well — will cost up to $3.8 billion and shrink the Detroit-based car maker by more than 14,000 jobs, or about 15 percent of its total workforce."
"They better damn well open a new plant there very quickly," Trump told the Journal. "I love Ohio," Trump said. "I told them, 'you're playing around with the wrong person,'" he added, according to the newspaper. https://www.cnbc.com/2018/11/26/trum...new-plant.html
"Playing with the wrong person," lol.
The economy's us, we don't need a mechanic
Put away the wrenches, the economy's organic
Current statistics suggest that small businesses are major players in the U.S. economy. Over 50% of the current working population in the United States works in a small business setting, as cited by Forbes.
Do you not understand that Obama was trying to pull the country out of the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression - and that Trump benefitted from that?
Obama inherited a recession. Trump inherited a growing economy. Oh but Trump is killing us with his added deficit of tax reform which gave more to the rich than the middle class
So true and the economic numbers at the end of Obama's presidency were fake news according to trump and soon as he got into office "hey look a the numbers"
Here let me fix this for you" one of the greatest presidents " of the United States of America Barack Hussein Obama led the United States out of the greatest recession in the history of the USA into a great economy. Barack Obama handed this great economy into the hands of Donald Trump and Donald Trump improved it!
Do you not understand that Obama was trying to pull the country out of the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression - and that Trump benefitted from that?
Do you not understand that government intervention ruined the economy yet again and you wanting them to fix it is the definition of insanity?
