I guess if you can ignore being used as stupid by the president... you can ignore anything.

For example the economic downturn and sudden massive loss of employment as he took office.

It must be nice to be clueless... I really mean that.

Apparently people who have greater knowledge and acumen don't agree w/ you. I don't think your opinion has carried much weight w/ them. LOL!

Are you familiar with what President Reagan was facing when he came into office, and the massive economic downturn and loss of employment before he took office. Pk please be more careful when you post things and try to give some links or substance to your position. This might help you to understand what President Reagan faced in January 2001.

Obama has created more part time jobs than any president. so yes we agree

Ok... lets see if you can follow this. In 2008 a bunch of jobs were lost... after obama took office things stabilized somewhat and jobs began to slowly increase from a VERY low point. It was inevitable... it wasn't devine intervention from obama almighty.

Make any sense at all to you?

Unemployment fell from a high of 10.8 percent to 5.3 percent under Reagan

Yes, clearly President Obama has done a better job than President Reagan on the economy and jobs.  I do not believe Viking was clueless, but dead cinch correct.

Of course you would... lol.

I didn't write the article. I just posted it but when I write one I'll let you know and then you can call me clueless. In the meantime, I'll go w/ Forbes Magazine
who has tons more knowledge than a hack on a forum.

Obamacare -- Bad for Employers, Bad for Employees
Obamacare isn’t just reducing workers’ pay — it’s putting them out of work. The AAF study concludes that the law’s regulations and increased premiums are likely responsible for American employers having shed more than 350,000 jobs. California, Florida, New York, Ohio, and Texas have each lost more than 20,000 jobs, thanks to Obamacare.

Killing jobs and reducing pay is bad enough. But another report, from the American Health Policy Institute, finds that Obamacare will also shrink the labor force by reducing incentives to work.

Harvard Professor Greg Mankiw estimates that a marginal tax hike like that will reduce the labor supply by 5 percent.

The labor force participation rate is already at its lowest point since 1978. Just 62.8 percent of able-bodied adults are working or looking for a job.

Fewer workers mean fewer taxpayers — even as more people become dependent on the government handouts that those taxes pay for.

brilliant!

Curious you be one celebrating that the rich are getting far richer under the control of semi-retired President Obama and the lower and middle income works are earning LESS than when he took office. Why is that do you suppose?

Here you're talking about the stock market. What percentage did the supply of money increase during the years of Reagan?

Money Supply Reagan through today. Oops....
