This BS was posted earlier on a previous thread. It is absolute nonsense. The real GDP under Obama is 20% of the Reagan boom.

The Forbes author completely ignores the chart he posted that clearly shows the participation rate grew under Reagan and has dropped like a rock under Obama.
I am surprised an esteemed publication like Forbes posted this tripe.
Forbes is no longer a useful tool of anything but the left. I posted a comment to the author calling him out as the outright liar that he is and it of course was not allowed to be added to the comment section.
The comment section of that article is a laughable exercise in absurdity. The author will never admit to any statistics that show he is purposefully cherry picking statistics and he continuously states that this has been his career for decades and that basically, no matter what proof you provide to show he is not being honest, he will dodge such proof and basically ignore it and wander off into another tangent that ignores the data presented to him.
It’s sad, but I would no longer “trust” any opinion from Forbes as they have become an apologist cover for this unbelievably incompetent administration.
