What a stud. Economic recovery and growth Reagan wishes he had. All this after the greatest economic depression (thanks George W. Bush) since Hoover. Wow.

Obama is on pace for 9.9 million private sector jobs added during his 2nd term. Wow!

Looks pretty similar to Reagan. I think it's a little early to say he's doing better. Carter is most surprising. I wasn't alive for him, but I have never heard somebody say they thought he was a good president.

Man, Carter really needed more time. Stud job creator.

Part time? Full-Time? Pay?

Still all time record low work force participation.

sonofdaxjones · « **Reply #9 on:** October 06, 2014, 06:28:13 PM »

Check that, all time record low LPR, with nearly 93 million Americans not in the workforce.

53% of young adults are either out of work or under employed, the government unemployment rate for young adults is 12.3%.

Full time employment is only slightly off its all-time lows seen during the economic crisis.

Median Household income has continued a steady decline under Obama and the gap between wealthy and poor is at all time record highs.

Median Value of Financial Holdings (of families with financial holdings) has declined in all sectors except the top 10%.

Go Obama!!

serious question, do unemployment rates count students? Even part time students?

sonofdaxjones · « **Reply #11 on:** October 06, 2014, 06:38:28 PM »

Students are classified as either employed, unemployed or not in the labor force. There are specific definitions for what is employed or unemployed.

It does make GWB look pretty terrible tho

Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) · « **Reply #20 on:** October 07, 2014, 08:26:39 AM »

It's worth noting the GWB was the only president that had to deal with 4 economic calamities (dot com bust, 9/11, accounting fraud, sub-prime mort meltdown), none of which he had anything to do with.

sonofdaxjones · « **Reply #21 on:** October 07, 2014, 08:47:00 AM »

I believe the Bush administration was warning on sub-prime early and often and Dems in Congress fought reform every step of the way. Treasury Sec. Snow was warning on Sub-Prime as early as 2002-2003 and the administration proposed reform that Barney Frank and company crushed. Bush's top economists continued to warn in 2004 and 2005 calling for reforms, again, crushed on Capital Hill. Greenspan grew very vocal on the topic in 2005.

You can start with the re-write of the Community Re-Investment Act in 1995 and work way pretty much throughout the Clinton administration in terms of the groundwork that created the sub-prime mortgage bomb.

Rage Against the McKee · « **Reply #22 on:** October 07, 2014, 08:57:20 AM »

Damn. Too bad Bush just didn't have it in him to make those reforms. He saw the whole thing coming.

I'm sure he tried

Kat Kid · « **Reply #24 on:** October 07, 2014, 09:13:28 AM »

Also Bush & Co. have zero responsibility for the largest attack on America's homeland since Pearl Harbor. Not their fault at all. In fact, it was Clinton's fault.
