The DOW has barely moved up when priced in gold. We had our peak in late 1999 and haven't surpassed it since. In fact, we are still very close to our all time low for this cycle. When the Dow starts gaining ground vs gold, then we can celebrate.
More stoopid "priced in gold" nonsense - but even playing the game by YOUR silly rules, the DOW and S&P 500 have gained ground vs gold for TWO YEARS NOW - so even by YOUR twisted definition, it's time to celebrate.
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha haha good one!
Net Job Creation
Bush 8 years: +1.1 million
This doesn't count all the jobs lost at the start of 2009 which were really Bush's, or else he'd have negative growth. The jobs lost in February and March alone would have wiped out that disastrously pitiful number.

Obama 4.3 years: +1.7 million (and counting)
Right-wingers lose.
obozo is still 4 million jobs in the hole
the fascist liberals never really use their vrains
Sorry, but the economy is beginning to recover, per the jobs report and stock market. Once the market is high enough, they will be able to raise interest rates and the stock will fall, climb again and repeat. People are traveling more and things are looking up.
I'm sorry of anti-Americans don't want this to happen and want to keep pedaling negativity because they don't like America or the president, but things are looking better. If not for you, maybe it's time to work at finding a new job or investing in this awesome stock market.
Good luck seeing the good in this awesome country!
Generalizing much? Nobody is more pro-Obama than me. I drove 500 miles in 2008 to knock on doors for President Obama in 2008. No matter what you say, you can't hide the fact that food costs and other costs have increased over the past 4 or 5 years much more than the "official" inflation rate. In situations where the food item has remained the same, you'll notice (if you look carefully) that they've shorted the amount of product, hoping that the average hurried consumer won't notice. (ex, Orange juice used to be 67.6 oz, then lowered to 64 oz, now it's 59.5 oz)
I paid $11 yesterday for an 8 oz Prime Rib with baked potato at the Chop House Sunday. I could easily go to any decent sit down restaurant in this region, and with a beverage and 20% tip, get change from a $20 bill. (Maybe the Chop House is in on the false info concept?)
When salaries nationally were half as high, I was paying far more than 50% todays prices.
Southeast (Nashville suburbs). Superb prime rib, very pretty restaurant with great service, and if either of those goes down a notch, much competition nearby at similar price points.
