GDP...not keeping up with population growth....?????I'm just stating fact. There have now been 4 additional posts that weren't necessary because you are not willing to acknowledge reality. GDP is trending down. That's just fact. Reality. It decreased from the last quarter and is projected to grow even slower (if at all). 1.5% isn't even enough growth to keep up with population growth. GDP growth for the entire year of 2011 was 1.8%. That is AFTER Obama's stimulus was passed. That is an economic disaster. 5 trillion has spent for 1.5% GDP growth. This is why I won't waste another post on you. It's pointless.
If you're going to run around the boards spewing a bunch of propaganda, then I'm going to compare you to an infamous propagandist.
We are not talking about employment.
We are talking about 23 quarters of GDP growth, and the best you have is to whine about the economy not being hot enough.
If you want the economy to get hot....then DO talk about the solutions to get employment up......but again you can't since then again you would have to face the fact the private employment gains have been VERY good....and the drag is PUBLIC employment.....which YOU want even less of.....in a recession.
