Data Point – It is a V shaped recovery! CNN calls it “incomplete”

October 30, 2020October 29, 2020 Skip

CNN just WISHES that the Biden-Obama years long recovery had looked like that. Of COURSE it’s “incomplete” but of COURSE, it’s like a rocket at liftoff (at least right now). What else would you think that the Never-Trumpers at CNN would say? Frankly, I am astounded that it is rising as fast as it is, … Read more

April 14, 2020 Steve MacDonald

In what may go down in history as THE non-endorsement endorsement for President of the United States, Barack Obama has finally shared his thoughts on who he thinks should be the next Democrat nominee. I know, Biden’s the only one left so it’s a good thing that he picked Joe Biden!

To defeat the flu we must get the government out of the way. Americans don’t rely on the government to save the day. The government is there to defend us, facilitate trade and maintain an orderly society.

Small Business Owners Can Apply for a Federal Loan/Grant to Cover 8-Weeks of Payroll (For Their Entire Business)

April 1, 2020 Steve MacDonald

The Federal Government loves to give away our money, but in this instance, it is to save small business payrolls for operations that were forced to close. I’m still not down with either side of that abuse, but we’re here, so this is how you, small or medium-sized NH business owner, can take advantage.

Obama Spotted at Subaru Dealer Trying to Buy a ‘Legacy’

October 24, 2018 Steve MacDonald

Desperate for relevance, Mr. Obama continues to claim credit for an economic recovery that isn’t supposed to exist. Such is the conundrum, some would say hypocrisy, of the left. The economy’s not that good if you ask a Democrat. Of course, it’s a good deal better than the left’s post-Trump election promised total economic collapse (viewed … Read more

The Obama Recovery Is So Darn Good…

September 26, 2018February 3, 2013 Steve MacDonald

The recovery is so damn good that more people stopped looking for work than found a job in January. Around 157,000 became employed while 169,000 people left the labor force. Since Obama came to office 8.5 million Americans have left the labor force. That means that there are 8.5 million fewer jobs in the country … Read more

There Is No Recovery

September 26, 2018February 26, 2012 Steve MacDonald

Time to put another nail in the Obama recovery coffin. The recovery that started when the recession “ended” in June of 2009. The recovery that is not growing jobs faster than the rate of population growth.

But that is hardly the worst of the Democrat’s problems. The bigger problem is that they are selling trillion dollar deficits year after year on the assumption it is creating jobs. They are printing money to pump into the economy on top of that to “jump start” this or that, which devalues the dollar, making everything cost more. (Inflation.) And the end result of all that debt, and deficit spending, and economic risk taking. and destruction is this…

Another Biden Three Letter Word…Failure

September 26, 2018September 6, 2010 Steve MacDonald

Smells just like the health care bill, the bank bill, the... Underestimating, miscalculating, failing to anticipate, these are all excuses used by the democrats for a long caravan of failures that are more the product of blind trust by left-wing sheeple in the judgment of an administration that has been way over its head on every issue…since day one.

One of the biggest is the Stimulus. Morgen Richmond over at Big Government has some actual numbers comparing the White House forecasts to actual Bureau of Labor figures over the last year. The point of course being that they sold you the all new 2009 Obama Stimulusmobile, (fashioned after the classics socialist economic models of the past) and it turned out to be a lemon just like it’s predecessors.

The affects should be far reaching. Almost every air breather with a (D) not only bought the plan, they sold it as if their lives depended on it. Not only were they stupid to believe it, they were wrong. Way wrong. So now they are pretending it worked. Sure it did.

Data and links on the jump.

Rumors Of A Recovery…

September 26, 2018April 9, 2010 Steve MacDonald

As rumors of the recovery continue, consider this. The same willing media that over emphaszied the failing economy to get democrats elected is the same willing media that is selling a recovery to protect them now that they are in office. One possible upside. People are less trusting of the media, in a downward arc … Read more
