how can obama’s stated policies push it to trend any other way? They can't.
Under Jimmy Carter, or the previous Obama presidency, the economy just kept going down, down, down. By the end of his term, inflation was at 12%, unemployment at 8%, and interest rates at 18%. At least that's the way I remember it.
