OT sort of.
Kind of alarming how we forget history
1920’s boom
Huge economy
Big party
Most everyone making good money
1929 ripped off by wall st / banks
1930’s bust
Recession brought on by republicans who cared for business in 20’s at expense of everyone else
Blame Jews blacks and other foreigners
Rise of fascism
New deal bailout
Drawing down of extreme new deal
Economy start to slow
People that suffer worst by economy in 30’s the poor, blacks and foreigners
1939 Hitler starts war
1940’s war
50 million dead
War industry boosted economy
50’s
60’s
70’s
80’s
90’s boom
00’s bust
I think we are someone around the mid 30’s by comparison
10’s ????
Okay way simplified but I think you get what I’m saying
The money the POTUS put into saving the economy is largely spent. He won’t have an easy time getting more with the obstructionist Republicans who from what i have seen don’t have a problem with totally trashing the economy if it means they get Obama out.
Has anyone in the Republican clown car even had any real job or economy plan other than tax the poor?
I hope I’m not the only one seeing a bit of a pattern here or that I’m just wrong and that what I’m think of as conclusions are wrong because if I’m right could be the big war coming. Ahmadinejad could be the new Hitler in this version and the rethugs well they’ve pretty much come full circle.
I’m just getting ready to head out for dinner and a movie with the Mrs. If any of you care to point out the flaws in my rather succinct history and it repeating I’d be happy to read your responses. I’m more hoping people will tell me how wrong I am an not that I’m right.
I believe a lot of the commenter’s here are rather tuned in and have a better grasp of both this history and or what’s happening now than I. Hey excuse me if I want to use the Internet to get peoples input rather than another picture of a lolcat or to wish someone happy birthday on facebook. Also excuse me for skipping over several decades I am trying to keep this from becoming too huge.
Hoping this won’t get me banned or make me look too stupid just what I was thinking today.
