    I am referencing Business Insider.

    Oh. Haha. I forgot to even mention.

    My first comment on this video that you had responded to just a couple weeks ago was posted 6 months ago, when this video was first uploaded to the internet.

    Since then, the number of job losses have pretty much decreased to zip. Obama inherited a rate of large job loss when Bush passed on his fiscal year to him in Jan 2009. The rate of job loss was highest right before Obama took office. The rate has been the lowest it's been since late 2007.

  • @MMouthPeach Although I say she's unreliable, I would say that most economists predict like stargazers. She just particularly lacks credibility to me because of her statements that I've sourced, and because she was chief on the board of advisers during George W. Bush's term--an administration that increased the national debt two-fold from his first fiscal year in office to halfway through the fiscal year that he left to Obama (a total increase in debt of 27%.)

    "The Great Recession of 2008?

    By Diana Furchtgott-Roth

    December 21, 2007

    It probably won’t happen, says DIANA FURCHTGOTT-ROTH, and even if it does, we may not know until 2009. . . ."

    I quote her, "On balance, it is not likely that the United States will experience a recession in 2008. "

    Stated in December 2007.

    The recession began December 2007. I am referencing The National Bureau of Economic Research on that.

  • In other words, HOTAIRINALAZYRUBBERRECEPTACLE, YOU PULLED IT OUT OF YOUR ORIFICE.

    NOW, CAN'T WE ALL GET ALONG?

    If you insist the woman said something publicly then just give the particulars. Otherwise its just your vulgar misrepresentation.

  • @sleepyballoons I asked you for a link. You stated, "she has published comments from 2007 and i believe from 2008 as well that a recession was highly unlikely".

    You said, "you do not need to be an expert to criticize this woman for not knowing her shit"

    I asked for your expertise, (education) and a link to her having stated anything of the sort.

    What was your high school GPA?

    Tell the truth.

    Smartness without truthfulness is diabolical.

  • @MMouthPeach what does sleeping around have to do with anything? that is one of the dumbest forms of rhetoric used in an attempt to intimidate me through the internet

    you do not need to be an expert to criticize this woman for not knowing her shit

    her saying a recession wouldn't happen so soon before it actually happened, when most other economists warned of the signs pointing that it would, is like seeing dark grey clouds upon the horizon and forecasting a sunny day

    you'd be an idiot

  • @sleepyballoons Context, would you not agree, is vital to the proper understanding of a persons comments?

    "she has published comments from 2007 and i believe from 2008 as well that a recession was highly unlikely", We are to take the word of a person who goes about posting these insults,

    "this woman is simply an idiot for many reasons"

    So? You didn't study economics or political theory yet here you are purporting to be an expert at both.

    Do you often sleep around? What did you study?

  • @MMouthPeach and i have a higher education than high school

  • @MMouthPeach what i said here:

    "she has published comments from 2007 and i believe from 2008 as well that a recession was highly unlikely"

    signs of the recession began fall 2008, so she did a pretty poor job if even in 2008 she was telling people that a recession was highly unlikely, when at that time most others were correctly forecasting a recession
