And given the amount of time that Obama has been in office it will be his failure to own, despite his efforts to blame it on Bush.
Carter will send Obama a note saying ” Thanks, I just became the 2nd worst President ever.”

So what???????????
There have been and will continue to be recessions as long as there is western styled economy (which I am a HUGE fan of…)
One person’s recession is another person’s opportunity
Quit playing “chicken little” Mr. Ramono
Wonks like Mr. Romano with “Americans for Limited Government’ are always whining that the economy is in the tanks because of government intervention while the liberal wonks are yelling the world is about to burn up due to global warming
Both groups have their heads in their ass and are just yapping like so many lap dogs.
Ain’t a damn bit of difference between either bunch as far as I’m concerned

Clue : when in doubt, Conservatives are never wrong, liberals are never right, moderates don’t know the difference. Good thought to access any argument.

“Conservatives are never wrong, liberals are never right” only in your imaginary universe.

As a moderate I definitely know the difference between what it takes to make the world work and not trust musings of blow-hard smug self-righteous know-it all conservatives………………….

So let’s be clear. Trying at attach labor participation rates to economic growth is silly. We had lower participation rates in the 50s and 60s and 70s with no major recessions. So the entire premise is based on a faulty hypothesis. From an economic outlook right now we have fundamental strong signals; manufacture continues to grow, steady job growth, household debt is stable, we have low interest rates, and a rebounding housing market. We are hamstrung slightly by a sluggish European recovery, but Latin America and Asia are still doing well – so trading partners remain in good shape. There is no evidence of a coming drop in demand that would cause a recession. If anything, with the new recovering housing market we can expect demand to increase. But yeah, I guess a Hurricane will hit SC someday too. Could be 20 years, but I’m sure one is coming.

I personally think America is due for something much worse than a recession! I hope I am wrong!

The US has to run out of other people’s money some time. When that happens it will be much worse than a recession. And when it is all over our children and grandchildren will still have 18 trillion in debt to think about. From what I can see China’s bubble might be getting ready to burst. As long as everything keeps going OK but if anyone stumbles it will all come crashing down.

There will be less jobs in the future as the internal logic of capitalism continues its path towards a zero margin cost structure in particular growth sectors. Which acute crisis ( Chinese slow down , euro collapse) will lead to further erosions nobody can predict. However , capitalism is no longer capable of providing a large section of the pollution with jobs and a meaningful life perspective. Only a highly regulated market will be able to sustain a civil society. Other attempts will result in what Marx called ‘Asian capitalism’ ie an uncontrolled market in an oligarchic society.
