		<description>That chart is missing three lines: 
1: Date Obama was elected President
2: Date President Obama was inaugurated
3: Date the &quot;stimulus&quot; passed

My eyeball line says the line started misbehaving sometime between 1 and 2, but I&#039;d love to see reality.</description>

		<description>If you want to fix America Buy American and stop whining about it its the rich elitists who have put us into this mess by wanting more money for themselves So they move jobs overseas to cut costs for themselves not for you.. its all designed to make more more for the rich while you still pay the same prices and higher at the registers.. Most items bought in America are made in CHINA.. The average Chineese worker makes 12cents a a day and thats a low figure... They have no protections poor healthcare and poor union protections. The only way to beat these pricks is to stop buying their foreign garbage and start buying from companies that make stuff in the USA.. This will put American workers back to work.. And its the only thing that will.. Wake up people its you who controls your destiny not the rich not the elite.. And you can fix this problem.. Not your stupid govt which should in most cases be avoided and ignored..</description>

		<description>The reason the 1980 recovery chart isn&#039;t extended out for 41 months is the nation slipped back into recession from &#039;81 through &#039;82.</description>

		<description>It would have been interesting to see the chart of the 1980 recession extended out the full 41 months like the rest.</description>

		<description>Wealth creation, Creates Jos.

The Gov&#039;t steals from the Rich destroys Wealth.

Wealth destruction causes the loss of jobs.

The Governement steals more from the rich and gives it to the increasing number of Jobless.

More jobless, more gov&#039;t need, more wealth destruction, less jobs. 

Gov&#039;t isn&#039;t the answer.</description>

		<description>We have a radical seditious enemy of truth, freedom, liberty, constitution and the USA regime in the white house. The is the exact opposite of Reagan and its the exact opposite outcome. Its time to run the Democrats, Fabian socialists, Marxists, progressives, national socialists, Stalinists, Maoists, Trotskyites and Bolsheviks out of political power.</description>

		<description>Of course the recovery is slow.  Businesses have a cloud of uncertainty hanging over them.

If anybody suddenly pops up with improved prospects, they figure they&#039;ll be seen as a target for the next tax bill.  That&#039;s not a climate to encourage growth.

This socialist goon in the White House has been a drag on our wonderful country.  I don&#039;t care whom the Republicans nominate next year -- Bachmann, Romney, Elmer Fudd -- that&#039;s where I&#039;m headed on Election Day.  

OBIE MUST GO!</description>
