I will pick on one and could easily do any one of the above.
I would like to know what it is that one thinks Obama or his team did to facilitate the recovery of the market?
I will grant that the interest rates have been held low and that in itself does induce many more to invest in the better returns in the market.
Other than that there is no influence of significance by the current administration to cause the improved and improving performance.
The world markets determine direction and results. For example the price of oil, the value of the dollar, the profitability of companies....happen without influence by the current administration.
As for unemployment. Let's be honets there are still more people out of work than the record portrays. The numbers do not reflect those who have given up. The definition of full time employment has been changed from 40 to 30 hours to affect a number. The ACA has caused employers to play games with headcount numbers.
No hatred or sour grapes. Just do not share the way the numbers are being pushed around to suit a report.
