I keep hearing the economy is booming?
So then why are we not hearing that the price of oil not going down and the prices in the grocery stores are at an all time high. I went to Walmart last and bought a few groceries and by the time I left, it cost almost $30.00 & I went the cheapest price I could find!
What was it Obama said?
Among President Obama’s absurd claims at the Tuesday presidential debate was his statement that gas prices are high because the economy is recovering.

Oh. Yeah. Oh, during a debate? :rotf:

7. It depends where
I'm no Trump supporter, but what I see in my area is encouraging. Our economy is driven by manufacturing and many companies have added second shifts, added overtime or have opened idled facilities. This means more/bigger paychecks and we have seen some prices rise locally. Nice to see folks working again.
Oops. Alert!! Alert!!!

As I've been saying for weeks now: Donald Trump has gone out and actually won the Fight for Fifteen, and the Leftists are furious at him for it.

27. it depends on your perspective.
If you are fortunate enough to have a 401K and good investments, then yes it is booming. My 401K posted a 21% return last year..
If you are not so fortunate and are living paycheck to paycheck its obviously not the case. Wages have yet to start raising enough to make a difference. Hopefully they will since we are reaching full employment, thanks to president Obama.
If you are a brainless primitive living like an animal in squalor, chances are that there will be no improvement in your standard of living no matter how well the economy is doing.

What part of rising wages, especially at the sub 15 hr level, will raise the cost of nearly all commodities don't you idiots get?

That was a right wing lie, remember? I read that we simply didn’t understand economics.

Get rid of the 10 to 12 million illegals working for substandard wages and wages will rise like a rocket.
Obviously if you are a dummy with a $40,000.00 degree in womens studies or abstract art you will not get much benefit from a growing economy.

How much has the economy recovered? Bought a farm June 21st last year. Put down 20%(about 30k). Lost the job a month after that and promptly put all new money into it on hold. During that time, all accounts continued to grow and am now only 10k from my june peak value. Was it a good buy? Absolutely. Are the primitives completely incompetent with all things economic? You know it!
