Gas was supposed to cost $6.05 per gallon. RE: 4 Things That Were Supposed To Happen By 2016 Because Obama Was Reelected - Rotobeast - 01-01-2016 He created ISIS to keep gas prices down. Good work, I guess. RE: 4 Things That Were Supposed To Happen By 2016 Because Obama Was Reelected - GMDino - 01-01-2016 (01-01-2016, 02:13 PM)Rotobeast Wrote: He created ISIS to keep gas prices down. Stories like the OP always remind of the day Obama was inaugurated. One friend, 5 seconds after the swearing in, went on a rant on line about how nothing was fixed yet now that Obama was president. Seriously. Now he was obviously being a bit sarcastic, but when I mentioned to him that he sounded insane he continued on that Obama "promised" so much it should have all changed the second he was in office. Seriously. Seven years later people are still having the same arguments they did while he was running for office the first time and its kind of sad. RE: 4 Things That Were Supposed To Happen By 2016 Because Obama Was Reelected - Vlad - 01-01-2016 The U-3 5% unemployment rate is misleading. The U-6 unemployment rate is 9.8%. The unemployment rate is 5%, so why is everyone still grumpy? http://fortune.com/2015/11/10/us-unemployment-rate-economy/ http://portalseven.com/employment/unemployment_rate_u6.jsp This thread topic misleads because it implies an across the board view by the right wing. One man according to this story, Rush Limbaugh, predicted an economic collapse. Who listens to Rush Limbaugh?

I know you're being sarcastic but it's all about the Saudi's trying to eliminate US oil produced by fracking. They're flooding the market in the hope that cheap prices will make the US oil an unsustainable business.

The U-6 unemployment rate is 9.8%. Except the U3 is what is reported on and what is touted as the unemployment rate. We've only seen people start focusing on the other numbers on an attempt to make people look bad even though the U6 has also been improving and is closing in on pre-recession levels.

Canada is feeling the hit on their oil-sands industry, too.

What the Saudi's aren't reckoning with is that the US government will ensure we're never dependent on OPEC again. They'll keep the fracking business afloat, at least at a minimal, and expandable, level permanently. |
