lol, you really need to go back to elementary school and brush up on your comprehension. read that as many times as it takes to sink in.
I can comprehend you don't like the constitutional reasons for protecting the minority States and are still butt hurt that Hillary lost.
looks like you are still struggling. I have no problem with the electoral college or that Hillary lost. I didn't vote for her. I am simply refuting the nonsense that Trump has a mandate, the American people rejected Clinton, or Obama's policies.
Wow! Talk about not keeping up with reality. Just a few points to get you started. The economy is hardly advancing at a huge rate. It is crawling upward at a very slow rate. Obama poured fed money into the stock market. It created an artificial surge. We now have a national debt of 20 TRILLION. You would have to spend a MILLION dollars a DAY for over 56,200 years to reach that. unemployment claims drop when people run out of benefits or they find a part-time job at half their previous pay with no benefits. I thought SEAL team 6 got bin Laden. It's just silly to claim that Obama got him. The stimulus package went to the unions, not to any actual work being done. Oil production increase is due to programs that were in place before Obama took office and he couldn't stop them. Record corporate profits held offshore because of the highest corporate taxes in the world. Cuba? Kissing up to another dictatorship? Obamacare may have provided healthcare for many that didn't have it before, but destroyed it for even more that did have it before. The points you proudly list is the superficial happy meal that Democrats push on us without bothering with the annoying details.
Good OP. Well done. - - - Updated - - - Losing by 2.09% does not make a mandate. Barely pulling PA, WI and MI over the line does not make a mandate. Sorry, that is just crap.
So funny. A RWer says the unemployment numbers are bogus. Then one asks, what has changed in the way the number is calculated in the last, 20 yrs or so, you never hear another peep out of em. I guess faux of limpaw hasn't provided that answer yet. - - - Updated - - - Did you mean to post this on purpose? What was the Dow on Nov 1? Before the election.
The economy rising, no matter the rate, isn't better that shrinking at 9%. What bizzaro world do you live in?
If everyone was saying back during the 1970's that the unemployment numbers were bogus...what has changed ? Just more people no longer looking for work and more people collecting disability or welfare to avoid work.
LOL. That means the rate, if the70s was the last time the formula changed, is the calculated the same. And a rate of 10% is worse than a rate of 5%. You should know this. And the numbers use the same data and formula, hence the comparisons are valid.
The rule of the thumb has always been, what ever is the reported unemployment rate, double it and it's closer to the real unemployment rate. What's different from today and back when America was still great, part time jobs and low paying entry level jobs were mostly held by high school and college students. Today those same jobs are held by uneducated and unskilled immigrants and illegal aliens who expect that these jobs become full time careers. Forty or so years ago Americans didn't have to compete against 20 or 30 million immigrants or illegal aliens for jobs. Jobs that use to be well paying jobs like the meat packing industry have become undesirable jobs, again because of uncontrolled immigration. Then there's the automation factor and and what are we going to do about it ? Amazon wants to send the Fed Ex drivers to the unemployment lines and the worse enemy of them all is Google who plans to end the era of the truck driver.
And that is all on obama how? Point on unemployment, its a measure from month to month, year to year. As long as the formula and data doesn't change, it shows what is going on. And if its been nearly 50 yrs a certain way. It's the real number.
Did you notice that even when Republicans were in charge of government, the way unemployment was counted didn't change?
1 point at a time. You said it was bad. Why go on, when this statement clearly doesn't hold up. Have you refuted the OP? What was the point of all that, and how accurate is all that. Obama has no control over the fed. So obama didn't pour any money. There was no reason to go further. It was pure hogwash BS. Emotional wrongness.
Blah, blah, blah, mandate smandate. Trump will be president and there is a Republican Congress - both houses. "Mandate" is irrelevant. Only power is relevant.
I said the economy was slow. There is a thread or post around here someplace that points out that Obama has set a new record for eight years in a row of slow growth. Remember all of those "SHOVEL-READY JOBS" that never turned up? Do a little more research into how those programs were executed and stop just printing Obama's wannabe legacy list.
Obama lies when he claims how many jobs have been created not pointing out that the majority of new jobs created during the past eight years went to non native born Americans, immigrants and illegal aliens.
I printed nothing. But the OP pointed out many things that are better since 08. Care to refute them or just continue to make up things. Got any substance? All you've given is your opinion, and they flatly contradict reality.
Show us where obama has give any numbers related to UE. Show us where any numbers on UE have been fabricated, by any source you may have. We'll see if you are correct or just post BS like this other dude in here is doing.
I noticed that, noticed it over 46 years ago. But how does the government count those who aren't collecting unemployment or welfare benefits today but are of working age but have dropped out of the work force ?
If they are unemployed and aren't collecting unemployment, welfare, or food stamps, they must be independently wealthy, so who cares?
What's an "UE" ?If you mean unemployment numbers it should be "ue" lower case. Except you can't please deplorables, they are raising the bar for America and low life politicians and community organizers. But I digress.
