Barack (Hussein) Obama Is Now The Only President In History To Never Have A Year Of 3% GDP Growth
Zero Hedge ^ | 1-27-2017 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 01/27/2017 8:29:14 AM PST by blam

Following today's extremely disappointing US GDP growth data, we have the final nail in the coffin of President Obama's economic reign. Not only is the average annual growth rate of just 1.48% during Obama's business cycle the weakest of any expansion since at least 1949, he has just become the only President to have not had even one year of 3% GDP growth.

An average annual GDP growth of 1.48% during Obama's two terms...

As a reminder to a few blinkered media types, this means President Obama's "recovery" has officially been the worst recovery in US history (despite adding almost $10 trillion to the national debt)...

Obama’s thinking was concentrated on taking slow and steady revenge on America for perceived historical wrongs against blacks, homosexuals, and muslims, and stirring up political agitation and discord.

In that area, he was very successful.

One day, he will be found out and be on a most-wanted list for untold crimes against humanity in this country. It may not be soon, but it will happen if we keep the faith with what we’ve started with President Trump.

Well, increasing business regulations, just about the highest business income tax rate in the world and the Obamacare mandates really hampered businesses. No wonder why retailers and many familiar restaurant chains failed between 2009 and 2016 (Fresh Choice, the parent company of Hometown Buffet, Sbarro, and so on). And Obama's stagnant economy was why Borders Books failed.

America’s first black president sure didn’t turn out like all those hollywood movies with Morgan Freeman and other black actors. Eight years of suicide by traitor.

He never wanted growth.

Only through illegal immigration even to the catch and release order he gave ICE.....where are all those unattended 'children' who were and are allowed in illegally? The real news about the man and his way of destroying America's middle class while enriching his cronies...that history is slowly coming out....he has left a bundle of scandals for the new administration to unknot....that money that Kerry and Obama arbitrarily sent to Palestine just as he was leaving forever, the White House....was that supposed to be passed by Congress before giving Palestine the money and was that taxpayer money?

Fake number. In reality, we just had 8 years of economic depression. The Obama Depression.

To be quite honest, average GDP growth per decade has been on a decline since the end of WWII, minus an upward tick in the mid-1980s & again in the late 1990s ending in a recession that began in the spring of 2000. Larger trends, obviously, than those driven by actions of U.S. presidents have been at work.
