He is right, Richistan USA is not in a recession and never been in one as long as they have whores in Congress paying with tax payer money their corruption so they can live the rich life they live
Now for the rest of the hard working American recession has been here since 2008, is just that Obama and his friends doesn't walk in our circles to see it and feel it.

If things are so good, why is the economy and the debt as well as the unemployment the way it is? Are we all suffering from mass delusions or are you making a case for "Your City" being the model that only counts???
It is not "so good"... But it can be much worse
The DOW hit 6,300 and we were losing half a million jobs in a month at a time
Now the Dow is @ 10,800 and we are gaining some small portion back
IF you weighed 400 pounds, do you expect that you could be 180LBS after 1 year of Diet and exercise? NO
My city is very relevant because it is the most populace county in the nation, if my city is doing good, soon your
locale will be doing good, there isn't a wall between us you know.
Just look at your own numbers. The DOW hit 6,300 after obama won the election, not before( Yes, granted we were on the way down before, but it was after the election we were on the rocket sled down). That should've been a sure sign that wallstreet has no faith in his leadership ability, they knew he would do nothing for this country once he took office. And with the bounce back in the DOW? That was inspite of obama not because of obama.
Are you kidding me???
Obama's policies did not take effect until Sept of 2009
fiscal year - The fiscal year is the accounting period for the federal government which begins on October 1 and ends on September 30. The fiscal year is designated by the calendar year in which it ends; for example, fiscal year 2006 begins on October 1, 2005 and ends on September 30, 2006. Congress passes appropriations legislation to fund the government for every fiscal year.

Do you expect Obama to SAVE you or what?

Shaking head. Know where did I say his polices went into effect. I said (again) that soon as obama was elected that's when the stock market took a nose dive. It was wallstreets reaction to him being elected.
And do I expect obama to save me or what? I'll take the "Or what". obama could save a paper bag without screwing it up.

The markets Use to be a portrait of how the nations economy health but it has not be like that for decades, the Markets are now globalize, the health of the nations has nothing to do anymore with the Markets.
That is because most of our trading is coming from oversea and most of US industries are either now oversea or get their profits from oversea.edit on 22-8-2011 by marg6043 because: (no reason given)

It certainly is NOT. Ask any economist, even the shills and they'll tell you exactly that.
The DOW is a JOKE... has been for years. The computer algorithms buying and selling and the bogus transactions have shown it thousands of times. Not to mention, corporations in the stock market worth dozens of times more than in reality.
The stock market is only an EMOTION market, nothing else.
Want reality? The CREDIT DEFAULT SWAPS market is closer to reality.

Honestly . . . just a flesh wound!!!
Well you are a prime example of the primary problem...
The economy and wether or not it booms is tied to the way people feel
The fact is, it is going to be OK
This country has been through much worse.
You cannot expect reverse the culmination of 8 years of crazy overnight

Give it a rest already.
In one hand, you excoriate Bush and his economic standard as being the rue of the financial standards, then when Obama holds the cards, it is just the mood of the people. Really?
Which is it?
The Govt has about a 65% play in the deal, while the public holds the remaining.
But, when the people are uncertain of rising taxes, costs, inflation and job uncertainty, then the Govt and Lord Obama is at fault.

Lord Obama??? Do you pray to him too? you wingers are strange...
I am saying unequivocally that Bush did, verifiably destroy the worlds economy by letting wall street
run completely wild... Bush's repeatedly touted that he was not about to interfere with the Market through
action and more importantly, inaction.
The bleeding is stemmed, the economy is not in critical condition as it was, it is not. No amount of
you anti yer savior feelings can change the fact that this economy is poised to launch soon enough.
It is cyclical, it will naturally start moving in the right direction, with or without Obama...
How come you anti government folks are so obsessed with having the government fix the economy
in the first place???

Is it any wonder that the President can't expect another recession?
He can't even see the one we are in now.
