What happened to all of the doom and gloom economic threads?

Their idea of up is level.


We know that's what Obama wants; he thinks that with redistribution, social justice and fairness he can eliminate the business cycle. He sees no downturn on the horizon, and if there were, it would simply be another crises to take advantage of while placing the blame squarely on the Republican House and the Obstruction in the Senate that prevents his budgets from being enacted.

;) ;)

Absolutely the biggest prevaricating cry baby in history.

Private sector 209,000 jobs in March

Private companies continued to add jobs in March, albeit at a slightly slower pace than in February.
Businesses added 209,000 jobs in March, according to a report issued Wednesday by payroll-processing company ADP. Those job gains were slightly lower than forecasts for 217,000, and marked a slowdown from 230,000 private sector jobs added in February.
Strong jobs data throughout the winter has been partially attributed to unseasonably warm weather, which allows some firms -- in construction, for example -- to remain fully operational during colder months. Once that effect fades, economists are bracing for weaker job creation.
But Wednesday's report showed no sign of a sharp slowdown.
"Today's number doesn't show such a weakening," said Joel Prakken, chairman of Macroeconomic Advisers. "It's pretty much in line with the last several months of increases."
The economy needs about 125,000 new jobs each month just to keep the unemployment rate steady. To fully dig out of the jobs hole left by the financial crisis, it needs far more.
Prakken forecasts that it could take another three or four years for the unemployment rate to fall back to a pre-recession level of around 5%.
 
He's just speaking your language, bro.

Exactly.

When talking to someone with an infantile intelligence, you have to speak in simple, easy to understand language, so that the point will get across.

Even then, with wingnuts like these, it's very unlikely that they'll get the message.

We might hit that all-important psychological mark of 13K today and then let the celebrations begin as the market hits its highest point since the dot-com bubble burst!




:nana: bye now!

Why do you mock the Dow? Do you think it has feelings? You do some really bizarre shit.
 
Big Three Automakers have huge month in March

..the American auto industry had a banner month in March. General Motors, Chrysler and Ford all reported some of their best sales numbers in years, with fuel-efficient vehicles, even some hybrids, accounting for much of the increases.

The three Marine homos ("Recovering" homo AJ, "Cyber" homo Vetteman, and "Repressed" homo Miles) will be along shortly to explain why this is bad news for President Obama.

Rob, you're wasting your the skin on your fingers. The three you mentioned put all the sane and rational people (besides Merc and that's debatable :D) on iggy long ago. Notice they never directly respond to any of the positive flow we post because they are disingenuous cowards.

Oh, you forgot Koaladipshit.
 
The unanswered question: "why is it all certain people do is bitch and complain?" It obviously isn't about the state of the county. Our country is doing quite well compared to the rest of the "free-markets" out there. Germany is doing well with an average 6% unemployment rate. Did you know they also have one of the oldest Universal Health Care Systems? When did it start you ask? Would you believe 1883? Could that be the reason they are doing well?

still waiting for one right-winger with some balls. If they don't like any of these questions, they can always answer my original question...what country is it that they think is doing so much better?

I like comparisons. Which country shall we compare the US economy to?

They are going to have good months, timing is everything. Car owners now hold their cars for 12 years, right about now is when its time to turn over and buy a new car. That was expected. GM is still in serious debt, we'll never see that money again...

*laughing* They read my stuff...they can't help it. Particularly the cyber homo.

I post these links to show them that their carefully constructed fantasy world, where everything is Doooooooom and Gloooooooom under a black president, is not tethered to reality.

Didn't click the link did you? GM appears to be majorly profitable this year.
 
Another miracle of Obamunism:

Savings come slowly for hybrid, electric car owners
Nashville Business Journal by Nevin Batiwalla, Staff Reporter
Date: Thursday, April 5, 2012, 12:09pm CDT

If you're thinking about buying a fuel-efficient hybrid, electric or otherwise eco-friendly vehicle as a way to save money over time, do your homework — or be prepared to wait.


Buyers who choose Nissan's all-electric Leaf ($28,421) over its approximate gas-powered equivalent, Nissan's Versa ($18,640), will likely wait nearly 9 years until they break even, according to a new report by The New York Times that examines the cost of fuel efficiency.
For drivers of the Chevrolet Volt ($31,767), the wait is even longer— 26.6 years.


A few vehicles begin paying off relatively soon after leaving the dealership. Two hybrids— Toyota's Prius ($23,537) and Lincoln's MKZ ($33,887)— as well as Volkswagen's diesel-powered Jetta TDI ($25,242) all take less than two years before they start saving their owners money.
Check out this chart by the Times that breaks down the savings delay for many popular fuel-efficient models.

The high price tag of many fuel-efficient vehicles — including the Nissan Leaf, which will soon be made in Smyrna, Tenn. — is one reason consumers have yet to embrace them with open arms.

As far as electric cars, I mean, you won't save a bundle, purchasers should know this up front. Its like boilerless water heaters, savings come much, much later but at some point it is cost effective...
