Moody's: Clinton economy would create 10 million jobs
CNN ^ | July 29, 2016 | Charles Riley

Hillary Clinton's plans for the economy would boost growth and create millions of jobs, according to a new analysis.

Moody's Analytics estimates that if the Democratic presidential nominee's proposals are enacted, the economy would create 10.4 million jobs during her presidency, or 3.2 million more than expected under current law.

The pace of GDP growth would also accelerate to an annual average of 2.7%, from the current forecast of 2.3%.

"The upshot of our analysis is that Secretary Clinton's economic policies when taken together will result in a stronger U.S. economy under almost any scenario," Moody's writes in its report.

Moody's Analytics is an independent research group, but the lead author of the report on Clinton is Mark Zandi, who donated $2,700 to her campaign last year, according to data from the Center for Responsive Politics.

Obama’s economy created a whole bunch of jobs, but it was LESS than the jobs that were lost... and the jobs created were downgrades compared to what was lost....

I’d like to see what they had to say about Obola’s plans back in 2008. I’m sure they said his proposals would create 30 million jobs, at least...

So raising taxes, allowing uncontrolled illegal immigration and MORE government regulations now create jobs? Moody’s analysis sucks.

It’s amazing how companies tweak the figures until they get the result that they want.

I ignore polls and studies-——a new one will always come right along with opposing results.

So the 2700 was probably a 10% kickback fee from the bribe they paid for the fake analysis.

Lemme know when raising taxes leads to a "strong economy".
