What improved economic outlook? Any specifics?

without the fed manipulating the economy and the markets we would be -5% growth at least.
Their game is almost up and its going to end badly. Watch Deutsche bank
watch all banks. They have shut down lending completely with Dodd Frank. Banks do credit card usurious rates and checking and atm fees. They no longer serve the community. Try to get a loan . The phone will say “press 1 to hang up” . Obama was, is and will be a disaster for Americans.

ROTFLMAO, except, not very funny.
Deep Bovine Excrement! This is a large laugh for my day.
They are counting on things getting better AFTER o'bama leaves office.
I do share that belief with them.
I believe that Obola has financial time-bombs set to destroy the Republican POTUS who succeeds him.
Watch his numbers climb as he tries to grant illegal aliens full Federal benefits.
Zero growth is now considered Booming....OK
