Monitoring Biden and other Contemporary Events

Once again AOC hpl the perfect bon mot. She described Marjorie Taylor G was just like the people she used to throw out of bars.

There's a great term for AOC too. But a2k forbids insulting leftwing politicians in the same way that the left insults rightwing politicians.

You're a fraud who never backs up anything that he says.

You cannot back up your above statement by pointing out any errors in my posts.

Nope. Obama's economic policies fired blanks. Even The Economist, which is one of the bashers of Trump, agreed that America's economy was in fine fettle before Covid-19 ravaged the economy.

Some A-list economists and financial journalists only wrote some articles expressing concerns over America's debt crunch or budget deficit. Shawn Tully, an senior writer at Fortune, called into question Trump's tax cuts , saying America's debt was going to be a festering issue facing America.

Actually, Biden's proposed tax hikes won't help America cope with its debt crisis if it also puts in place progressive policies, say, Medical for All, free college, and BLM supporters'' efforts to defund the police.

You just rack up more debt if you spend more than you earn. The biggest American companies have other alternatives when it comes to evading taxes:they could move their headquarters to Europe or even scale back its business operations in America if needed.

High-taxing also scares off foreign companies trying to set up shop in America, which is supposed to create jobs.

AOC or Bernie Sanders doesn't care about such vexed issues. Such progressives just think you have to tax the rich in order to get the job done; they think that's more effective than QE.

Yet it's not like pulling a rabbit out of a hat. You can't do it when the hat is an empty one.

The dead body of a missing man has been found inside the leg of a papier mache dinosaur in Barcelona.

What a horrible way to die. It's a shame no one heard him screaming for help.

can you say wimp-out.

read the rest of the post, it;s patently true what i say.

obama inherited an economy on the edge and heading for depression, thanks to repub mismanagement. he restored the economy which led to six solid years of groqwth and job growth. trump inherited a stronmg, vibrant economy, which was headed shortly toward full employment, which is the time income growth happens, because there's strong competition for the available job force. all trump did was ride the obama boom, that's why the trump ecoinomy lkooked good, because it was the rtuition of the oibama economuy. Of course trump was completely incapokabele of doing anything to meet the pkandemcic economicay-wise.. all his attempts did was let more people di

Look at the jpeconomy and job growth over time under obama and under trump. all trump did was continue what obma did to jumpstart us out of the gop recession.

the tax rate on the super rich was much higer when the economy was roaring before. specious argument. If trump and his crime family can't afford to buy another golf course oir a gold plated jetliner or a 300 foot yeacht, tough ****.

It’s no use, MJ. If they could, these jokers would have us all still waiting on the trickle-down from the voodoo economics of Reagan.

Hypocrisy is a much better term for it.

Since a2k allowed name-calling directed at the Trump Administration, it should allow name-calling directed at the Biden Administration.

They should especially allow it when the name-calling directed at the Biden Administration is factually true.

There was nothing else in the post. Your entire post was just a single line untrue statement about me.



No it isn't. If what you say about me was actually true, you would be able to back up your claims instead of endlessly making excuses for why you can't back them up.

Let me show you what The Economist's view on Obama' handling of America's economy. It wrote " Obama's approval rating on the economy is deeply negative." Guess what? Even your New York Times and its financial writers feel compelled to jeer at you for claiming that America's economy fared much better when Obama was the president.

Lehman Brothers went under when Obama was the president; GM was nationalised when Obama was the president; CDOS and CLOS were rampant when Obama was the president: it led to the subprime mortgage crisis.


I don't even remember what he did to boost consumption or bolster exports. China sold lots of goods to America, whereas American companies wanting to make big push into the Chinese market found themselves alienated by your Obama government, although he talked about this during his trip-you could also call it vacation-to China.

Now it's time to lambaste Trump's daughter Ivanka Trump, who had close business ties with some Chinese companies. Liberal publications published articles two years ago claiming that Ivanka Trump was striving to sniff out business opportunities in China. And some Chinese publications also claimed that one of the richest men in China tried to chivvy Trump to invest in China before Trump became a politician. Then he was the host of The Apprentice produced by NBC. Trump demurred.

Some liberal publications published lots of articles laying into Trump's business record after hearing that he was going to run for president; they kept talking about Donald Trump’s bankruptcies. So what? He became a president, not Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos.

Please tell this to Andrew Ross Sorkin, asking him or other financial writers at the New York Times if they also think that Obama created more jobs.

I'd hate to ask you this question. Are you black? No offence. I'm just curious. If the answer is yes, then it's understandable for you to do down Trump and kiss up to Obama. Otherwise, I have to say that it's so odd for someone to claim that America had a thriving economy when Obama was the president. You don't even have to answer that question if you think it's offensive. Just forget it.
