The Obama-ites want to destroy our economy so that they can replace it with something else.
155,000 Jobs Added in December, Unemployment Rate 7.8%

“””Are We Already in a New Recession? “””
We never got out of the old one.
Ask someone unemployed what we are in.
I think we barely came out of the moderate Depression (2009-2012), and are now in a deep Recession.
Just like the unemployment rate,
they can adjust the growth rate by including or excluding selected sectors and keep the reported rate above 0.
Bingo!!! Complicit, lying media allowed obama to get away with saying the recession had ended.
It is truly sad that so many are gullible enough to believe what they hear on the “news” or read in the “news”paper.
How did this country get so stupid so fast?
Obama contended that the nation is poised to debt growth.
The truth
Question. When does a Recession become a Depression or has the latter term been removed by liberals from the dictionary? I can’t remember when the economy was ever worse than it is today...
Think of it as driving from the upstate toward the ocean, along the way there will be some upgrades but the trend is toward lower altitudes until you finally reach sea level at the end. That is all we have seen in the past four years, anything that was called a recovery is no more significant than the slight climb as you cross the bridge over a little creek and rise back out of that valley, after which you resume a slow descent toward sea level. Of course the insignificant rise comes only after you have just experienced a briefly steeper descent as you go down into the valley.
In my view this is what has been going on for over four years now. Of course every attempt imaginable has been and is being made to claim that we are actually traveling to a higher altitude right up until the ocean becomes visible just ahead. I won’t elaborate on what the ocean represents, we all know that already.
Agreed.
Due to the writing on the wall the current regime must move swiftly to neutralize the number one threat to embracing those changes...the Constitution and all those pesky things listed in the amendments., like the 2nd Amendment. Oh, they will allow some thinly veiled shadow of it to remain...hanging on a nearby wall so they can say, 'See...we still have it."
It will suffer the same absorption as the Press...and instead of being an extension of the voice of the people filled with iinvestigstive and carefully vetted facts... become another extension of the feral Government. Once upon a time there were things called reporters and non-yellow journalist capable of 'delivering the news' . News is now 'produced' and is only fit for use in bird cages or wiping your bum.
RINO File.
New? Recession?
Try Sliding into Depression.
Just the way the Administration wants it.
We have been here before
Think FDR.
Baraq, Timmy, and Ben create electronic money and pay it to the non-workers. So instead of looking like 1929-32, things are the “new normal”.
Now eventually this is gonna puke.....
Did we ever leave the old one....seriously, without borrowing for ‘stimulus’ and various QE schemes, has there been any growth? Has our growth in GDP even matched additional government ‘investment’ in the economy? If not, we’ve just elongated the recession, and never left it.
My libinlaw the other night referred to the policies of FDR with regard to them getting us out of the depression. I think it was while we were watching “A Christmas Story” and discussing the timeframe.
I told my kids, watching with us at the time -
“Don’t worry, you’re homeschooled. When we get to that era in history, we’ll teach you the truth.”
