Belarus had a 8.53% growth rate in the same period. Uzbekistan had 6.9%. These countries are not what I would call economic powerhouses. Instead of percentages, can you give me dollar amounts per capita (i.e., how much more actual wealth was there on average per person in the country)?
(09-08-2018, 12:50 PM)Rajvik Wrote: Lowest unemployment in all brackets (including specifically minorities) in over 50 years both nationally and in 14 individual states.How does that correlate with the employment rates? Is unemployment going down because people are going on welfare, or is unemployment going down because people are finding work, or is unemployment going down because there are fewer people in the population? We need both sets of numbers for meaningful information.

But, yes, I'd be interested in learning how much WalMart greeters, McDonalds fry-cooks, and employees in other comparable jobs received in bonuses.

How much are the people of the USA paying private companies to receive those services? Is the increase in payments to private companies higher, lower, or the same as the decrease in payments to governments for the same service?

Nice to see you've included one of his blunders on the list...) What medical services are the people of the USA not getting for that health care you aren't getting any more? How much are the people of the USA paying private companies to receive those medical services? Is the increase in payments to private companies higher, lower, or the same as the decrease in payments to governments for the same medical service?

Trump had nothing to do with this.

(Note, I say conservative not republican, damn beltway bastards have gotten too used to the easy life of "the elite"While you're looking things up, please show where the liberals employed the tactics that conservatives employ. Or vice-versa.
