I know in your mind I was giving him credit and I'm not. But you can call him alot of things but he isnt a big liberal. Also one more time the Bush tax cuts were so great and the gop controlled all three houses.Why didnt he make them permanent?
Plan on 7 to 8 percent being the new normal no matter who is president. With technology and off shoring you need less people to do jobs. The big question is what are going to do with all those people. Who used be able to make a living working as file clerks,working production lines. Ebooks and newspapers online are killing print. Well someone used to drive a truck to deliver those things. Or when self driving cars happen in the next 15 yrs. Think of all the jobs that's going to pitch. This is going to be a real problem.
