    But as you know, from the data that’s been provided, the economy was no kick started. It’s been on the exact same trend for 9 straight years.

    You said this was false
    "The trend in the LFPR for the last nine years especially those under Democrat policies was over the cliff, that platitude after the Republicans took back the Congress and is now going back up under Republican policies. So even while we have historic low unemployment we are increasing the LFPR as jobs are being created, good jobs, at rates we haven't seen in a decade. Thank you Republicans, why on earth would you want to go back to the 2008 - 2014 years and those Democrat policies?"

    The data shows that under the Democrat policies we had a collapse of the LFPR and that under Republican policies that paltaude and is now reversing.[/QUOTE]

    Now how about for once responding to what I posted and actually give an argument.

    And THE Only reason that the Unemployment number raised
    a tick is because More Americans are now back in the Total Labor
    Force,looking for work.
    Under Obama the Labor Participation rate was at almost a 50 year
    low.Plus Obama had the BLS { Bureau of Labor Statistics } change
    the way U3 and U6 unemployment are calculated.Basically by
    reducing from a Full Year to as little as 4 weeks the Number In the
    Labor Force.The Lower the amount of workers in the Labor Force
    the easier it is to have a Lower Unemployment number.
    Obama sneakily made sure to have Unemployment Under 8 %
    in order to guarantee his Re-election.Because No President in
    modern History ever won ReElection with Unemployment at 8 %
    or higher.

    Try just for the heck of it to Prove yer point.
    Instead constantly accusing Posters of Lying or false data.
    You have outgrown yer ability to be taken even remotely serious.

    I have repeatedly done so. The economic data has been posted by myself, showing those arguments are complete bullshit.

    Your argument has been repeatedly refuted, and you know that. I’ve repeatedly posted the economic data showing your argument is complete bullshit. And you know that too.

    he had to fudge the numbers because he came in after the biggest economic crash in modern history

    interest rates and the economy are still recovering, probably won't be where it should be for another 10 years.

    So why did Obama say Trump would need a magic wand to bring manufacturing back if it is on the same trend? Same with the 3-4%+ growth we now have, which Obama's advisors said wouldn't happen.

    We don’t have 3-4% gdp growth. And manufacturing jobs have been on the same trend for 9 years. Again, there has been no change since trump.

    Folks, compared to several industrialized nations, 47.7% isn't a great percentage, and the main reason;

    ...….we have a high number of working age adults with disabilities, and "unable" to work in quotation.

    Obama and his ilk Lie.Total bullcrappers.
    So what else is new.
    Obama was also The Only Illinois State Senator to vote Nay
    on the Banning of the Practice known as Infanticide.
    That was totally hidden from the Public when Obama ran
    in 2008.Also the Photo of a Very big Smile on Obama's mug in
    Picture with Farrakhan.Obama's Pastor { Reverent Jeremiah Wright }
    was close friends with Farrakhan.Both lived in and around Chicago.

    Why the small " t " in Trump.
    I guess that is your attempt at making the Man { Our POTUS }
    smallish ... right Ringo ?
    Won't flush.Americans saw and felt the dynamic silliness
    of one Barack obama.

    Righto Ringo ! In yer world Facts and reason and Logic are
    unnecessary and almost rude.Which of course explained
    quite eloquently the dynamics of obama for 8 years.
    Where he may have accomplished his goal.
    As a practicing Marxist,the goal of discombobulating our
    vaunted and prized Middle Class.
    For the First time in Modern America,under Obama the Middle
    Class witnessed a DECLINE.As proven by the 2013 Census results.

    They want folks dependent on government handouts.

    This is where we are finally seeing the strong gains, and these numbers represent healing, hope and new dreams.

    Except for Obama who averaged 207 thousand new jobs per month his last 5 years, then suddenly the number of monthly jobs creation to keep up with population growth became 500,000 and more than 500,000 for economic growth, after all the Right can't admit the economy was in good shape under Obama. And of course, any good economic news was branded fake by the America hating Right because there can be no REAL economic growth at less than 500,000 new jobs per month!

    June 5, 2015
    RUSH: From the moment Obama did his Porkulus, we needed 500,000 jobs a month just to stay even, and a little more than 500,000 jobs a month in order to grow the economy. And we haven't come close to 500,000 jobs in a month being created.
    Not even close!

    That you can't even interpret your own data is not my problem, its proves what I have said all along. The fact you can't even respond let alone refute what I post says it all.

    His last five years saw a Republican take back of the government and still getting his horrible employment numbers.
