This recession should have been turned into deep depression comparable to 1929-1934 or worse Instead we passed it with unemployment that have not toped 7% Success of Bush international policy and timely tax cuts saved the country from disaster The job loss situation is worse than any other in the last 50 years. This is clearly evident in the BLS figures, and if you are interested here is a piece from NPR that discusses job loss in WI (basically 100K manufacturing jobs or 1/7 of total manufacturing workforce in only 3 years). People are interviewed and don't see any recovery. Of course there really isn't any recovery for J6P so no surprise to me. There is no sense trying to justify the job loss with bogus new UI claims figures. We all know what happened in the job market. npr.org (report 3: David Schaper on job growth and economy) As far as success with Bush international policy? Come on you must be joking, we have destroyed every foreign relationship we ever had. Tax cuts saving the country from disaster. NOOOO. I don't think so. I don't think dividend tax cuts saved anybody from anything except maybe Bush's crony friends who are involved in non-growth smokestack industries and are jealous of Nasdaq stock market gains.
