Has turtledude ever blamed Republicans? For anything? I can't think of a single post.
yeah, yeah, yeah....Conservatives back Republican ideas, and Liberals back demo ideas...Congratulations you have been promoted to 'Master of the Obvious"....
Now I have some questions, because I am not an econ grad, or am I anything close to understanding some of the arguments coming from supporters of Obama these days....
1) If Obama's administration, and indeed Obama himself is out there touting how say, August saw a 144,000 jobs increase in non farming sectors, but reports come out at the same time saying things like the 293,000 jobs lost this summer, or monthly unemployment rates show some 500,000 people collecting unemployment at a steady rate and that number not falling....
a) How can you trumpet that as a success?
b) How much did every one of those 144,000 Jobs cost in real dollars per job spent by the tax payer?
c) What is the earning of these people supposedly employed through Obama's wonderful spending spree? Are they earning as much as before they lost their job?
2) We have heard in this thread, as well as numerous other places at different times during the economic debate in this country how things would have been worse had Obama not borrowed more money from the Chinese along with printing his own money at record rates, and buying our own debit through Treasuries which I have heard will, not might, not could, but will lead to hyper inflation when Obama's economists slight of hand tricks run out.
a) How do you accurately measure a "SAVED" job?
b) How can liberals continue to point at the Bush Administration as the totally wrong way to go about all things economic, when Obama's plans have put things in overdrive?
c) How does spending something like a million dollars to create one $30K per year job that only lasts 8 months count as real job creation?
We'll start here. I am truly looking for some explanations. I confess that I am probably ignorant when it comes to economics on a macro scale, but I do a budget for my own house, and am wondering just how this smoke and mirror show that Obama is putting out is supposed to do anything but destroy our country.
Thanks.
