    1. Not sure what your point is. Obama's economy is the worst since Truman. And the 2008 recession was an event that took place on the Democrats' congressional watch. As far as the Market is concerned, it is an accepted fact that its growth is due to the Feds policy of "printing" money for the past 7 freaking years; that and next-to-zero interest rates (prime) for the longest period in American history. But I don't expect you to understand. Folks like you don't believe Central Planning can run out of money.
