My figures come from here:
http://www.bea.gov/national/nipaweb/...ate&JavaBox=no

2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008
Gross domestic product 1.1 1.8 2.5 3.6 3.1 2.7
1.9 0.0

It's a lot easier to see if you just go to the link. There are differences in our numbers and I don't know why. Mine came from the Bureau of Economic analysis. Where did yours come from? Regardless of that, even your numbers show growth of less than 2% in 2001, 2002 and 2008 with 2% growth in 2007.
To me that is four out of eight years.

skate provide a link. And no I don't mean your missing link.
Although that would explain quite a bit about you. And maybe Tom

Slow day at the collective?

Kibbutzim worked quite well in Israel.
Socialism has it's moments.

Then there are the communal "company towns" of the old Sixteen Tons song. You remember coal mining, black lung, 12 year colds working in the mines. Buying your groceries at the company store. Then there were the meatpacking plants of "The Jungle". Sort of communal too. Get to eat your fellow workers fingers in the company canned beef.

Real cozy

Thing is, hcap, WE have progressed from those days.

Yes unions. Regulations. Social conscience. Social justice.
Collective societies correct. Free for all mythical invisible hands only do efficiency fairly well but fare poorly with human mistreatment.

Only because of government action. Those things still happen in places where the government doesn't stop it.

there are two sets of these numbers.......the original and then the adjusted ones that come out a few months later....... could be you guys are using both.......

It doesn't matter...... GDP sucks right now.......and it's a bunch of peoples fault

How'd ya think you and your comrade were able to find manufacturing costs, WITH shipping, to be 1/3 of anything domestically?

Not exactly an Asian eye-opener.

Ok, im going to look into the GDP figs, but let me say this about looking at the "q" figs and the yearly figs are quite different.

If a player says "i had a profit this year of $10,000", but you refute the profit by saying he had a losing day in week one and week 21 he lost twice (and so on) you are not viewing his profit correctly nor the GDP correctly if you bring into play a lost "Q" or even 5 or 6 lost "Q", you should look at the whole TERM.

Also, please, least we forget, this is brought up Many Many times here, FishBellie had a fine second term, with the-Nut-Knute in control of congress, while UncleGeorge went south under the penology-nut-pelosi.


Uncle George had almost (gotta watch my figures, now) $800 Billion more in taxes collected under his term, than did fishBellie.


Should be Considered, when taking an overal picture. Faults, sure, but who-do the Figures the-bestess?

At the end of 2008 GDP was $14,222.3B. In 2000 it was $9708.4. Thus GDP grew by $4513.9B or 46.49% during GW Bush's term.

Again, in 2000 GDP was $9708.4B. It was $6240.6% in 1992. A growth of $3467.8B or 55.57% during the Clinton years. Clearly there was more growth during the Clinton years.

From a Supply Chain POV, obamanonics has hurt quite a bit. Lead times on parts we buy and manage for engines are becoming critical. We have over 100 engines stacked up wtg parts right now, about 3x the norm

I made a post recently about working more hrs b/c of our corp not wanting to hire new employees b/c of uncertainty about the future- obamacare being a HUGE player in that....well, other corp's are in the same boat....and that has us in a big hole that'll take a yr or more to dig out of
