So you think these numbers are cooked? Some of the metrics say otherwise. It's not just the rate that seems impressive, some of the deeper metrics speak volumes for real recovery in progress:
Rate - 7.8% (lower than when Obama took office) Average out of weeks out of work - 34.5 ( a pre recession figure) Mortgage foreclosures at a 4 year low Housing starts at a 4 year high 31 straight months of private sector job gains - over 5 million jobs manufacturing alone added over 500,000 jobs added Stock market at 5 year high It would be awfully difficult to cook ALL of these books... I'd say Obama understands the economy pretty good. |
