Personally I believe the economy is improving because we are recovering from the huge banking disaster in 2008.


My question - why isn't Bill Clinton more publicly blamed for the banking disaster?

eta - signing the Commodity Futures Modernization Act, exempting credit-default swaps from regulation. Loosening housing rules by rewriting the Community Reinvestment Act, which put added pressure on banks to lend in low-income neighborhoods.

The economy is not improving AND Obama is responsible for it



Right. It's not improving.

Millions are still out of work. Millions are still on food stamps, unemployment,etc.

The National Debt just hit $18 trillion

And the Dollar is still losing value cause the Fed is still printing money and Congress/Obama are still spending like drunken sailors.
