Black Unemployment Hits Record Low, Spurred By Uptick In Employment For Black Women

Don't worry Republicans have been right in cahoots with them.

 

Attacking him? Is that a joke, how about tell him to stop lying so much and to kill the racist rhetoric.

 

Why yes someone finally broke the deadlock and we had to pay off the corporations just so they'd do business in the US...What a winning strategy...

 

"WE"? Perhaps you believe that the dems kool aid is somehow better. Maybe both are for fools.

 

Don't listen then. You hear what you want to hear then project wrong notions onto others.

 

Looks like it flattened out after Clinton raised taxes and slowed economic growth and the got back on track after the Republicans took back the Congress and passed welfare reform and pro-growth tax policy. Then after the 2001 recession and recovery started to fall again and then the Democrats took back the Congress in 2007 promising huge tax increases and a myrid of regulations and of course their failed stimulus but then The Republicans started taking back the Congress in 2011 and we see the fall that began and has been continued as the Republicans took back more and more power.

The economy does hinge on just who is President at the time.

So what are the Democrats offering to keep the economic expansion going

 

The fall began in 2010, not 2011. If you like lower taxes, start protesting Trump's tariffs.

 

Wasn't that two years after he and his fellow Democrats took back the Congress and lame ducked Bush? Yes it was.

 

The steep drop and the trend starting down was 2011. I like fair trade and the longer we wait to force the Chinese hand the harder it will be.

 

You can like Trump or you can like free trade. Can't have it both ways. And, no, the trend started in 2010.

 

Sure I can and no the trend was still up in 2010 climbing until the big drop in in August of 2011 and downward trend.

 

LOL! Here comes Bluesguy cherry picking data again and completely ignoring the responsibility of the GOP for the 2008 recession. And, no, the Dems were only in power in the Senate for 3 years in the decade long runup to the great recession.

But, keep screaming DEMOCRATS, DEMOCRATS, DEMOCRATS.... We'll see what your boy in the WH is made of when he encounters the next recession. We'll also see what happens to black unemployment when that happens. I don't think it will be pretty.

 

Looks like some don’t know how to read a graph....t clearly dropped drastically after reagan’s Policies took hold, dropped again when clinton cut taxes and went along with welfare reform

 

Here comes QN again unable to refute the facts. The Democrats were in power a year before the recession began, it was their job to pass measures to help mitigate the depth and length and they totally failed as opposed to the Republicans in 2001.

 

Clinton opposed Gingrich/Kasich tax rate cuts, budgets and welfare reform until his political adviser told him he better get on board with them else lose reelection. Those were REPUBLICAN policies that got the economy back on track and helped produce the budget surpluses.

 

True...and let’s not forget he shut the govt down over welfare reform

 

The corporations were paid off by Bush and Obama long before Trump entered politics. The RP/DP did nothing to stop corporations from leaving the US

 

How many times have others and I told you that
1) 1 year in power in congress, without having the WH, has no effect on a recession and housing bubble that was a decade in the making.
2) The housing market already topped in early 2007, the moment when Dems took congress.
3) The congressional Dems in 2007 didn't pass any legislation that would have caused the "magical" GWB economy to all of a sudden tank.
Seems like this is a futile endeavour.

 

The corporations were paid off by Bush and Obama/"The Clintons" long before Trump entered politics.
The RP/DP did nothing to stop corporations from leaving the US. Trump has been kicking transnational Wall Street in the groin repeatedly since taking office. They have hated his guts for decades.

“How can the race be this close after everything Trump has said and done? Well maybe it’s because he’s said (correctly) that the Clintons’ support of NAFTA helped to destroy the industrial states of the Upper Midwest. Trump is going to hammer Clinton on this and her support of TPP and other trade policies that have royally screwed the people of these four states. When Trump stood in the shadow of a Ford Motor factory during the Michigan primary, he threatened the corporation that if they did indeed go ahead with their planned closure of that factory and move it to Mexico, he would slap a 35% tariff on any Mexican-built cars shipped back to the United States. It was sweet, sweet music to the ears of the working class of Michigan, and when he tossed in his threat to Apple that he would force them to stop making their iPhones in China and build them here in America, well, hearts swooned and Trump walked away with a big victory that should have gone to the governor next-door, John Kasich.”

Historically, since FDR, the RP has been the DP's little beach.

 

And the Republicans faced a bubble even greater than the residential housing bubble in the recession of 2001 and then 9/11 just as the recession was ending. We see the difference in their policies and actions an the HUGE difference in the outcome. The Democrats were handed a strong economy, low unemployment and a paltry $161B deficit. They were in charge as the economy slowed and then went into a recession. Your position that it was just overwhelming to them certainly does not lead one to want them back in power if the economy slows again.

OK, the tech bubble busted and then 9/11. Let's compare results.

Specious, no one said they did. It's what did they do to help mitigate the depth and length of it. What they did do was come into office pledging huge increases in taxes, huge increases in regulations on business and cost of employing people and complying with regulations, huge increases in spending and a take over of the healthcare system.

Geez just what they are promising now, why would you want to repeat the results?

 

And even gave hints during his reelection that give me back a Democrat congress and we will get rid of the welfare reforms. Then of course when they worked and millions got off welfare he tried to take credit just like with the deficit.

 

And now it’s peaked since dems have congress!

 

You've got nothing but the right wing talking points.

 

Why the hell do you think I say, "Neither party is mine, not the Jackass or the Elephant".
