Nothing but opinion, and not even well thought out opinion in many instances. What exactly was it about this opinion piece that compelled you to post it? The fact that he compared Trump’s plans to those of Hitler?

I got two paragraphs in and was left with only one impression: This guy is on some serious hallucinogenic drugs!

That is one figure I can’t find an article on. U E 6 was the best I found.

And that does not include those in Seiverville, TN thousands lost jobs.

It’s why I call it the Obama Depression, we are not in a recession, but a Depression. How many small hospitals, private doctors, and clinics driven out of business by DUMBOCARE? My Primary which I’d love to be rid of, was a 3 doc office, 1 had to medically retire who was my Primary, I got the female partner, Stupid one, they ended up merging with Methodist health care systems. Endo ended up going into partnership with a larger group. Much longer waits for appointments now. Newer less well trained techs too.

An impressively large, smelly, steaming pile.

95 million adults out of work puts real unemployment in the 40% range.

How many of those are college students, high school students, retirees, disabled, or not working by choice?

By February, the real numbers indicating the numerical malfeasance of the Obama administration will begin to come out. All economic statistics will be shown to be lies

...economic statistics will be shown to be lies...

So what will show this, more statistics?   My take is that the quantified evidence has always been there, it's always been fairly accurate, and that the lies we've been getting have been those coming out of our party line pundits.  We can expect no let up in that regard, what's going to be different this time is folks like you and me w/ an even broader grasp of what's happening.

-—So what will show this, more statistics?-—

Good question. If the more correct, untampered numbers for unemployment and GDP are published then the disparity will be evident.

For instance, there are I think other Government unemployment numbers. The U3 number thrown out is replaced officially by the more realistic U5 or U6 rates instead, the difference will be reality. The obfuscation will be apparent.

At that point, the disparity will become the story. Some will blame Trump for the instant rise but Tweets will go around the MSM to get out the truth

I’m as sure as I know I’m here this morning that Obama has or is now Sabotaging the incoming Trump administration.

I do. Did you make up the numbers you entered into your calculator or did you get them from somewhere?

Just how many articles based on this one anti-Trump report are you going to post? Try to repeat a lie so people believe it?

I don’t need to make them up. They are pretty bad as they are.
