So much for Trump helping your downtrodden Southern states.......

State-level GDP data for the first quarter of 2018 showed zero growth in Arkansas, placing the state 49th among the 50 states (North Dakota experienced a decline of 0.6%). The comparable value for U.S. GDP growth in Q1 was 1.8%.

Over the past four quarters Arkansas GDP expanded by 0.7%, well-below the U.S. average of 2.6%. As shown in the figure below, Arkansas growth rate has lagged the nation since at least 2014. From the beginning of 2014 through 2018:Q1, the growth rates of Arkansas and the U.S. have averaged 1.0% and 2.4%, respectively.

Well, Trump's tariffs will surely turn things around.

On the general topic: I just read that the budget deficit when Paul Ryan became House speaker at the end of fiscal 2015 was $439 billion. Trump deficit prediction for this year $890 billion. Next year, $1.085 billion. Had enough conservative policy winning yet?

" ... consider these your daily colonoscopy".

That sounds like an EXTREMELY APPROPRIATE "treatment" for these Extreme Left Wing, brain-dead types, ... especially the ones who frequent this board !!! ....

No point in trying to "treat" their brain as there ain't much there, so Far Better to "work on" the other end !!!

ROTFLMAO !!!
