It is what you get when a pedophile marxist steals the election.

Contrary to Keynesian economics, the more gov’t spends, the less GDP and the less prosperous the society.

The numbers quoted in the excerpt are incomplete without showing the annual increase in the national debt. Little known fact - the last time the national debt decreased was 1960, which was Dwight Eisenhower's last year as President.

Since then, there was one year during the Clinton presidency when the national debt only increased by $18 Billion (with a B), but I think Clinton and Gingrich claimed a budget surplus.

Too bad Sarbanes-Oxley does not apply to governments.

'Biden’s GDP ‘growth’ numbers were fueled by government spending and debt, not the private sector'

Its been that way for decades. The author went out of their way to exclude 2020. Can't forget the massive amount of money that R's and D's threw into the system.

That’s no surprise at all:

Democrat economics are raising taxes, increasing public sector spending, open borders and encouraging crime.

Republican economics are lowering taxes, decreasing public sector spending, closing borders and thwarting crime.

It’s been that way since I was in college back in the 1970s.

Government spending, at all levels, is part of the GDP.

Fueled by government spending and debt, and all the benefits went to non-US workers and benefits for illegals. Thanks Joe!! Although the GOP is pretty good at running up spending and debt too despite their talk about fiscal responsibility.

Numbers were fueled by government spending and debt, not the private sector.

That’s a trade mark of the democrats if there ever was one.

Tax and spend addiction never ends.
