How the GOP, Reagan, Bush Sr, Bush Jr Betrayed, Pillaged, then Sold the U.S. » Posted By Radiofreeeuropa 1 year ago in Political News Prop it 86 24 drops
Drop it Like Rome, the US has despoiled the land, waged war upon both the small farmer and the laborer, outsourced it's industry, devalued it's currency and subverted the products of labor --the sole source of 'value' in any economy. Let's take a look at the history before it gets re-written:
* Any Democratic President has presided over greater economic growth and job creation than any Republican President since World War II. * When Bush Jr took office, job creation was worst under a Republican, Bush Sr, at 0.6% per year and best under a Democrat, Johnson, at 3.8% per year. * Economic growth under President Carter was far greater than under Reagan or Bush Sr. In fact, economic growth in general was greater under Johnson, Kennedy, Carter, and Clinton than under Reagan or Bush. Democrats always outperform a failed party: the GOP! * The job creation rate under Clinton was 2.4% significantly higher than Ronald Reagan's 2.1% per year. * The "top performing Presidents" by this standard, in order from best down, were Johnson, Carter, Clinton, and Kennedy. The "worst" (in descending order) were Nixon, Reagan, Bush. * Half of jobs created under Reagan were in the public sector--some 2 million jobs added to the Federal Bureaucracy. Hadn't he promised to reduce that bureaucracy? * Reagan, though promising to reduce government and spending, tripled the national debt and left huge deficits to his successor. Bush Jr's record will be even worse. * By contrast, most of the jobs created on Clinton's watch were in the private sector. * Put another way: any Democratic President beats any Republican President since World War II.
Everything posted above is based upon official, government stats from the Census Bureau, Bureau of Labor Statistics, CBO, and BEA among others. They are 'official' and irrefutable unless someone wants to make the outlandish case that the Federal Bureaucracy, the numerous agencies which keep these stats, is somehow biased. That argument is absurd in light of the fact that of those 20 years from the election of Ronald Reagan to the stolen election of 2000, Democrats had the Presidency in only eight of them.
The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government. -- Patrick Henry

This is hilarious in a sick way, you are trying to attack the GOP when Obama is in office spending more money than any other President?

No Obama has not spent more money than any other president. Bush holds the record for that he took 5 trillion in debt and ran it up to 11 trillion mostly Obama has spent very little about half the stimulus money and increasing unemployment insurance. Where did you get your info from? The Republicans since Regan have spent more money than all the past presidents combined and have increased the size of government more.
