looks like i have to educate another mind numb liberal spewing democrat talking points (which are lies) [sigh]
worst economy since 1930? LOL. here is some FACTS that will hopefully educate you but i doubt even with these FACTS you'll still believe bush's economy was the worst since the depression because that's what the democrats TELL you to think. that's what you are brainwashed to think and say. so im probably wasting my time but.....
under Jimmy Carter (1977- 1981) the worst president in the modern era. not even counting his disasterous and embarrassing foreign policy lets start with unemployment rates
1977 - 7.1
1978 - 6.1
1979 - 6.8
1980 - 9.7
now lets look unemployment under bush (2001- 2007)
2001 - 4.7
2002 - 5.8
2003 - 6.0
2004 - 5.5
2005 - 5.1
2006 - 4.6
2007 - 4.9
(for 2008 it is currently 5.5 )
so tell me which numbers are better? that's what i thought. ok lets move on to inflation.
1977 - 6.50
1978 - 7.62
1979 - 11.22
1980 -
13.58
2001 - 2.83
2002 - 1.59
2003 - 2.27
2004 - 2.68
2005 - 3.39
2006 -3.24
2007 - 2.85
ok again, which numbers are (MUCH) better? yep that's right. bush's
ok is that enough? or should i go on? want me to break out the numbers for the GDP? how about the stock market numbers? i dont think that is necessary but if it is let me know cause i can get them very easily. just be patient i dont come on here all that often. also, my salary is largely based on the economy and the stock market in general. lets just say i certainly am not starving.
here is some more free facts for you. ireland's economy in the 90s was one of the worst in all of europe. a few years ago they cut their corporate tax rate to 12.5% guess what happened? major companies set up shop over there bringing tens of thousands of jobs and their economy is BOOMING.
now dont you feel a whole lot smarter and more educated since i provided you with actual facts. not some democrat talking point lies? you dont have to thank me but you should.
