Re: U.S. Adds Only 88,000 Jobs; Jobless Rate Falls to 7.6%
All paper losses, perpetuated by greed from individuals including many in Congress. To blame the loss on Bush is typical but let's say it is all Bush's fault, where is the blame on Obama for the poor recovery and economic policies that have done nothing but add to the debt?
How did the recession of 07-09 affect you and your family? You survived it, I survived it so are we that much smarter than anyone else? The fact is the low interest rates, low inflation saved a lot of people who didn't have that luxury in the 81-82 recession that affected everyone.
Bush presided over the greatest decrease in net wealth this country has witnessed since the Great Depression. In constant dollar terms (factoring for inflation), households still have not recovered. Any idea how much this damages confidence?
