More Positive Economic News

but don't go giving the current administration any kudos for making the right decisions at a crucial time....

btw Bush did well too with his contribution to saving the economy from sinking into another depression.

It's not the best news, but it is a positive sign.

Re: More Positive Economic News

Don't go out and buy that new Corvette yet. I received this notice in the mail a couple days ago.



Important Notice:

Due to recent budget cuts, the stock market crash, and the
rising cost of electricity, gas, and oil, the light at the
end of the tunnel has been turned off.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Sincerely,
The Government

Re: More Positive Economic News

Whatever....

If more bad news had come out and I started a thread about it, the thread would have 10 pages of Obama-bashing.



Maybe the jury is still out on the economy for most folks here or something.


But it's looking up, an indication that the right decisions were made at the right time, though apparently by the wrong President and Administration.



CONSERVATIVES FOR OBAMA 2012!!!

You do like a good joke don't you. You can't be conservative and vote for a hard core liberal.

What right decisions?

He said the unemployment would not gover over 8% if they rushed and IMMEDIATEDLY gave him the huge stimulus package. He got it and unemployment is over 10%.

(I would love to know, I think, what the real numbers are. I believe it is much higher than is being reported. Too many companies had to large of layoffs and none doing hugh hiring that I have seen reported.

I wonder how he would feel if he was part of that 10%. Good thought anyhow.

LOL! What's funny is you cite this totally out of context. 10% is not a good number, but if unemployment had been expected to be way over 10% then being happy with 10% would be perfectly understandable. It's kind of like when a football team is playing bad and goes in at half and the announcers say "Coach" is happy to be going into halftime being down by only 1 touchdown.

Re: More Positive Economic News

Great news!!!!

Unemployment dropped from 10.2 to 10 % for the month! So with the massive, and I mean MASSIVE, amounts of seasonal and holiday help hiring that went on the rate dropped a whopping .2%.

And people are praising the fascist in office why?
