Back in the good old days ignorance could be fought and minds changed by using facts. Today, the facts are made up and presented as truth. The lowest unemployment rates were in the 40's and 50's and then '68 and '69. Why do folks say that today's rates are the lowest ever? -- because trump keeps saying it! I am not disputing the "fact" that a 3.5% unemployment rate is fantastic and in 2000's, the best ever. It is just not the best of all time.
Are you now saying that the mortgage crises was Obama's and the democrats' fault? I think that the mortgage crises was caused by unbridled greed where the banking and investment sector found the magic way to print their own money. When it all collapsed, the government and little people were caught holding the bag, while the top bank executives and the investment clan rode off with their billions into the sunset. Then they came back when they realized the government was going to shower them with billions more to fix the problems they created.

"Do not endeavor to be the smartest kid in a dumb class. Instead, you are better off being the dumbest kid in the smartest class, where you will be challenged and you will learn. If you aren't growing, you are dying." -Brian Austin Whitney
