It’s safe to say that this is the best American economyin 40 years but is it the GOAT?

When was the last time that the USA had 3.7% unemployment AND 4.2% GDP growth? I realize that the data hasn’t been annualized yet but it is safe to say we will be under 4% unemployment and over 3% GDP when annualized for 2018.

We were heading into a recession in 1969 so you have to reach a little further back to see GDP and unemployment that good.

1968, 1966 then before that only a handful of years 1951, 1952, 1943, 1944

First column is unemployment, second is gdp growth rate, the third is the inflation rate

Women were thicker back then, ie marilyn monroe.

Models today are gross stick figures with fake body parts. So I vote for the50s and 60s

An older gentleman that I know once told me that he and his wife were purchasing a new house, a new car, and a washing machine on two minimum wage salaries.

The year was 1962.

The rise of the tigers coincides with the rise of the economy. It’s in everyone’s best interest to root for LSU.

It was an accident. Im still pretty new here. Can it be moved to the poli board? Sorry to disturb everyone here.

Fwiw, I think this is the year lsu beats bama. Burrow is the real deal.
