The Bush economic record: - 521 billion deficit from a surplus just 3 years ago There was no surplus 3 years ago and you know it. - almost 3 million jobs lost 2.2 million since Bush took office accorind to the BLS - never mind inheriting a market disaster. - widening wage gap in the USA for the first time in 10 years Gap between what and what? Be less vague please, and then prove it. - 489 billion trade deficit, the HIGHEST EVER And that's bad because . . .? - claims that productivity caused loss of jobs, when the reality is that more employees hired in india/china than any other recovery period by US corps Damn that productivity. Everyone "in the know" knows productivity is a code word for fewer jobs, right? - dollar crashing against most foreign currencies, more losses to come- (my guess 1.3 dollar/euro coming) Tell me why a lower dollar (even 1.3 per Euro) is inherently bad. - Bush team unable to negotiate Yuan float despite huge trade deficit with China- in other words US manufacturers can "eat cake" And your magic bullet is . . .?
