Ignore those that don’t.http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/article/2012/jun/01/scorecard-economy-obama/Not sure where you were in late 2008, but I was here and watched it happen. The DOW plunged off a cliff. The GDP wasn’t slowing down, or even staying the same, it was shrinking. The kind of thing that causes revolutions. Retirement accounts were wiped out. Companies laid off 400,000 in one month, then 500,000 the next, then 600,000, then 700,000. The biggest banks in the world stood on the brink of insolvency. Possibility of no money in ATMs. McDonald’s said it was going to miss payroll. The world was sliding into Great Depression.All of this before Obama’s first day. Anyone who says “we’re no better off today” is simply lying.
