You didn't graph that.
Need this on a t-shirt.
The only thing missing is a graph of banker bonuses
Y yew awl sew raycessists hear Obamer bee wunnerful
Amurikah, Fuuk Yahhh!!!
Affirmative action recovery: The horrendous result don't matter. What matters is that it wasn't a straight, white, guy doing it. Looking at results it raysis.
That seals it. We are voting for Sanders. This ship must sink so we can learn how to swim again. This is sarcasm, as we could never vote for a communist no matter what.
Is that a graph of home ownership? Or of my sanity since he's been in office???
Mission accomplished - and he's still got about 16 months to finish us off, MF'er.
Don't even have to zoom in on the charts to realize... wow things are bad

how about the illegal aliens chart, and Gov-scum crime and corruption charts? I would guess they look just like the student loan chart.
On the other hand, the Freedom and Liberty chart would be in the shitter for sure.
Fuck the Kenyan homosexual and his jew bankster handlers!
I truly hate this fucker, the first American Fuhrer, from Kenya no less.
A negro economy of fundamentally changing The U.S. of Fuckin' A.
Possibly the only campaign promise the majik negro kept. There, I said it, negro. Here come the red arrows like that scene in 300.
Oh yeah?! Well you... you... Caucasian!
That's Racist!
I resent that, feel assaulted, frightened, uncomfortable and need a hug in a safe place from your micro aggressions
Will you accept an apology?
Nope, you must pay hundreds of billions in reparations for something your ancestors did that you had no control over.
Not every Caucasian has slave owning ancestors, and what about all of the black slave traders and owners? It's funny how PC history conveniently forgets about them...
And this is the rationale that the Germans face with Oktoberfest. Muzzies don't like beer 'n' tits (so they say!) so the festival must be cancelled.
Or they like them too much and can't control themselves. It's the tits fault!
FORWARD MICRO AGGRESSIONS!
Fucking progs, I swear, they're teaching young adults to be little Hitler Youth, in assence...to-be-insane. Here's Turley (who I rarely agree with) on the high priced Indoctrination Camps they're running:
"I have written columns and blogs through the years about the disturbing trend on U.S. campuses toward free regulation and controls. In the name of diversities and tolerance, college administrators and professors are enforcing greater and greater controls on speech –declaring certain views or terms to be forms of racism or more commonly “microaggressions.” The latter term is gaining support to expand the range of controls over speech and conduct to include things that are indirect or minor forms of perceived intolerance. The crackdown seems most prevalent in California where lists of “micro aggressions” seems to be mounting as a macroaggression on free speech. The new list of verboten terms out of University of California (Berkeley), headed by Janet Napolitano, (Edit: How apropo) captures the insatiable appetite for speech regulation. The school has asked faculty to stop using terms like “melting pot” or statements like “I believe the most qualified person should get the job.” They are now all microaggressions. (Edit: lol) Not only are school buying into the concept of microaggressions and speech regulation, but they are shaping a generation of students who seem to look for any possible interpretation of terms to take offensive at."

Was on a site the other day and a gay guy posted a comment that he had been confronted over his discrimination because as a gay he would not date a female because she has a vagina. Could have been a joke but in this crazy as environment I doubt it. Can't make this shit up.
Clearly the gays are descriminating against women for their vaginas and this must stop! #everyvaginamatters.
LOL ! #everyvaginamatters
Partcularly the more beers you drink and as it gets closer to closing time at the bar.
Winning ! Forward, comrades !
And an apathy chart.....
that one is going to need a log scale
I don't need 9 charts to get a feel how everything is going. Only ONEchart!
Booze sales.

Another chart to get a feel for how everything is going. Firearms and ammunition sales (thru 14Q3):

Obama has been the best gun salesman in history.
Forward (over the cliff)!
Banker's don't have any influence on healtcare costs, food stamps, etc.
He did say he was going to "fundamentally transform" the United States. The only thing he didn't lie about. Going exactly according to his plan.
Sorry, but Obama lied about that too. That lie was always framed as BEING FOR THE BETTER.
Actually, he didn't. Your brain filled in that part for you because you assumed (or perhaps hoped) that's what he meant. But he never actually said it would be for the better.
It has been better for a lot of people, just not the ones who bear the workload on either end of the economy.
That's correct. His election rhetoric was an absolute masterpiece of the 'Blank Canvas" allowing the listener, which ever his persuasion, to very easily insert his own favored outcome.
Very few of us (as in electorate) saw this for what it was. A con job of Biblical proportions.
BTW, talking about Biblical (No, I'm not suggesting anything religious, FFS) for a moment, just reading an article on the Rooskies and US SpcOps in Syria, it cast my mind back to the old Bibli9cal story of the End of Times, when Gog and Megog initiated the final battle in the Middle East where one of the antagonists was said to have come down from the North (Russia) and come into conflict with, etc., etc., etc.
Golly gee wiz. Some seriously odd stuff going on, folks!
and watch The Donald do the "blank slate" thingie too.
It wasn't a masterpiece; people just embrace having their sentiments manipulated by sociopaths. This behavior permeates society at home and work, just as it must have during the Crusades. It's what reality shows are all about.
Many BHO supporters also believe(d) they are (were) part of the new aristocracy, since a college degree and government job certainly place someone at the level of knight, reeve, or at least yeoman. To them, it's obvious who makes up the peasants and serfs at the very bottom. Certainly they'll be part of a new order.
Many will be rudely awakened when the oligarchy circles the wagons. Those that thought themselves dukes and dutchesses will be left fending for themselves.
Graphical Representation of the real deal... "Hoax & Chains", not "Hope & Change".
So Proud
Brings a tear to my eyes
Even ENRON could not do whats been done
Everything is going as planned...so far......
Bush did it.
Six years of his presidency at ZIRP and this is all he can do.
what Bush DID do was increase Afghan poppy/heroin production - put up that chart
Obama supporters will tell you 2 things.
1. Bush was the dumbest president ever.
2. Everything Obama does is ok because Bush did it.
I have no idea why anyone is interested in the Republican or Democrat political parties.
If they showed genuine interest, there would be a revolution overnight. Instead they watch Danicing With the Has Beens and American Karoake
Yes indeed, Mission Accomplished!
Incredibly bullish
GOing EXACTLY as planned.
<-- only a terrorist would point that out
<-- we've been corzined
<-- Both
<-- Whargleblargle
See that money chart? This is why we stack debt you dummies!
Ta Daaaaaaa.......!!
Apple came up with that first.. /sarc
Looks transparent to me...
Yes, he is a total liar but the American media protected this liberal from what he was doing to America until it could no longer be ignored!
SHOOT THE ANTENNA! SHOOT THE ANTENNA!
These charts are racist.
don't forget homophobic
Truth is racist! That's why they avoid it by any means possible...
Reminds me of my last EKG, I'll never get another
Ignorance is bliss
The whole top row solves itself if you allow debt to be repaid with food stamps.
Shouldn't 'recovery' be in quotes?
actually, "recovery" was trade-marked by Joe-Bite-Me back when, you might remember (I'm having difficulty through the chemically induced fog) the "Summer of Revovery" and the "Second Summer of Recovery" and the "Third summer of bad basketball lead by our dear leader."
People have no clue. If their house feels in order then all is good. There was a great opportunity for us as a society to wake up and learn in 2008. I will be dammed if men and women alike dont give their all for a bunch of padded juicers chasing a pigskin around. That they have time for and interest in.
America's first foray into KneegrowNomics.....
Tongue---- stunning; hilarious!! ding ding ding; we have a winner
Thank you, I'll be here all week.....well except for when I travel down to my little farm in the SE WV Mountains.
do you fit in there? All the DNA being all the same after all ;-)
Nice hollers.
The Bushbama regime has been a seamless continuum of destruction in every way.
Mission accomplished indeed.
The problem with Hoffman lenses is that you can't spot the alien collaborators, although I'm sure Obama is one of them.
+1 - for the obscure Hellboy reference...
+1 for the reference.
Watched that with my 12 year old son. He was blown away and now looks at things with his eyes open. Especially when I said "they have been able to move beyond the TV and the printed page, it's now on the smart phone apps and xbox. Think about it. How many of your friends just want to sit inside, play games on the computer, xbox or ipad and don't want to go outside, ride bikes or go swimming? The vast majority of people out there are an easily amused herd of sheep." He got it.
Kinda looks like the Obamatron...
you forgot to include a chart of the number of $100MM homes not selling
That boy be crathy like a mutha fucka.
They were going to do a chart about transparency but it was so redacted it looked like a piece of black paper.
"Mission Accomplished"...
Something you won't see discussed on any college campus in America.
That's why we need Hillary! <sarc>
See what my Congresspuke, Chris Van Hollen, aka Nancy Pelosi's lapdog has on his website. Aside from the distortions and spin about the "recovery" he seems to be concerned in advance about blaming the upcoming government shutdown on the Pubs/Tea Party. He is a little yapping poodle dog spouting the party line. He is now running for Sen Mikulski's soon to be empty seat. He will probably win. Gag.
Van Hollen Statement on August Jobs Report
Sep 4, 2015 Washington Today Maryland Congressman Chris Van Hollen, Ranking Member of the House Budget Committee, issued the following statement on the Department of Labor’s employment report announcing that the U.S. economy added 173,000 jobs in August "Today’s report showing the 66th straight month of private sector job growth in August with the unemployment rate falling to 5.1 percent is the latest evidence of how far we have come since the depths of the recession, and how much we have to lose if the GOP causes another self-inflicted wound to our economy by shutting down the government over women’s health care.“The uncertainty generated when the U.S. government shuts down creates damaging ripple effects across the country and taxpayers stand to lose billions of dollars. I will work tooth and nail to prevent Republicans from using the threat of a government shutdown to defund women’s health care, just like we prevented them from using this tactic to end the Affordable Care Act.
“Additionally, it is long past time Republicans joined us at the negotiating table to make a concerted effort to replace the damaging sequester cuts. Every day that we’re not investing in America's future -- from scientific research to infrastructure to education -- is another day that we're failing to realize our full potential and becoming less competitive with the rest of the world.”
Fuck, I wish I hadnt read that.
Do these ass clowns really think anyone is listening to their crapola anymore?
I used to think of Obama as a fraud and no hoper now I am starting to think he is in Muslim eschatology and very high up in it indeed
Quite the picture of our new socialist utopia, no?

Growth Jobs and Prosperity!

When was Obama elected? 2000 or 2004...can't remember. He really changed the slope of the curves over his four terms.
The charts actually start to accelerate when Bush said "they" had to suspend capitalism in order to save it. Look it up, I got a check for $600 to convince me.
Note how Bush, and the Bush family, are not particularly critical of the Obama administration. Even the current fat ass running for president won't say much. That's because they serve the same master who will meticulously fabricate "opposition" such that Dems and Repubs look and sound different. That way the WWE farce can continue.
They are he same thing.
the charts indicate a solid reason not to vote for any democrat or enabling republican who continued the same ole, same ole.
they also indicate why a large segment of the population likes the Donald as an antidote against what has occurred. he is the voice of the angry and those who can readily read these charts and realize the implications for themselves and still care about their family and country
You know if Trump even hints at messing with those charts he's gonna be JFK'd
FFS, can we STOP giving the teleprompter-in-chief credit for FED/global racketeering cabal policy???
Obama Boehner's
Officially FUBAR
The only thing this chart has to do with Obama is that he just happened to be President right after TARP and then during QE. FED-onomics.
I see vlads internet provider accepts EBT cards
Everything is awesome!
Support the DNC - Abort a viable black baby at your local Planned Parenthood Organ Harvesting Center for Progress
Looks like a muslim planned those charts.
So we're #1 again?
U betcher your ass!!!
Gotta' listen to O--"America is "Great", America is Great Right Now.
Hot off the presses, so to speak
Those charts had better check their privilege, caus immabouta pop a cap ndat
Obama's fauxcovery! It's mirage economics!
If a graph is worth a thousand words ...then those graphs are worth 9000 words...
he fixed a lot of billionaire problems
Today, I met a guy who just lost his job.
He earned 2000 euro's net when he worked and for the next 2 years, he'll get 1500 euro's for doing nothing but his costs for going to work are gone which are about 200 to 250 a month so his loss isn't that big.
Now, I support a social safety net and honestly, if I where in his case, I'd take that timeoff also if you see what the difference is.
So I understand why some people just sit back and relax but this is really bankrupting our economy.
Can I qualify that for you..
"but this is really bankrupting our BELGIAN economy" which has some of the highest tax rates in the whole of the EU.
SD, you are about 40 years late in this realization. Welcome to the old reality as you are swamped by military-aged young men who also support a social safety net ('specially when they are in the hammock).
Work away, dem "refugees" are eating your life.
enjoy it while it lasts--lots 'a changes coming your way. Annnnnnnnnd it won't be in a pleasant direction 4 u.

Where's the graph showing Jamie's and Lloyd's total comp package since 2007?
How about all the CEO's of hedge funds whose funds manage Corporate Debt and Loans? They were absolutely broke in 2009. They have made Billions since and not changed their portfolios one bit.
WHERE ARE THOSE FUCKIN' CHARTS !!
Yep Vlad.... Its all Bush's fault!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hardeharhar
I'll bet if you showed those charts to some of your zombie friends and relatives, their eyes would roll back in their heads as their minds go blank.
There is a couple my wife and I are friends with, we had a heated discussion about this stuff (official unemployment rate vs real rate, the total population in workforce, immigration, etc.) started to get heated. They just stated the government can't lie about this stuff. WTF! Really?! Haven't visited each other in a while. Having a hard time reconciling their apparent idiocy with the fact that they are smart professionals who are conservative with their money, low debt, etc. and otherwise okay except for loving Obama and his ideas, and open borders.
I would really like to send them these 9 charts so they could sing the Hopey Changey anthem. Started under Bush, hit the nitrous under our Dear Leader. They would just think it is made up BS and not bother fact checking.
The truth is all our presidents are prisoners and slaves of the bankers, They cheat, lie, and enrich themselves in the process, and answer to the banksters and big corporations only. Screw the faux election every 4 years, all just a media game, you and I having no influence whatsoever.
Where's the graph showing the broader populations spending money on useless and unproductive things that have recurrent charges - like useless internet time, useless addiction to being on the (un) smart phone, having to keep up with useless comments on the likes of Facebook, etc. I submit that facebook wouldn't be nearly the success it is if we were in a booming economy. People wouldn't have time for such BS.
How about the giant TV that so many just have-to-have? And..."OH...the new phones are out. I've got to have that new one."
How about a chart showing the number of people that are actually making an effort to buy goods made in the USA - to build employment in their town, county, state or country? They can start simply by looking where their clothes are made.
Where the chart showing how many people know what the national debt is. And a chart showing how many people when told what it is knows the ramification for the future. (Extrapolate this to other deep-in-debt sectors.)
Times aren't good, true enough. But they're not nearly so bad that the general population is shocked into soul searching of what really needs to be done to build back their countries hollowed out and welfare based economy.
Politicians are only partly to blame. More pointedly, its the people themselves that are the problem.
"having to keep up with useless comments on the likes of ......." insert your own vice here. Recognise yourself?
The truth is all our presidents are prisoners and slaves of the bankers, They cheat, lie, and enrich themselves in the process, and answer to the banksters and big corporations only. Screw the faux election every 4 years, all just a media game, you and I having no influence whatsoever.
"...you and I having no influence whatsoever". Sure we do. We pay for it all.
Look at all those hockey sticks!
Eureka! That's it. They have nothing to do with Obama. It was all caused by climate change.
Are those future GDP projections, or are you just happy to see my central banker?
And to think so many learned peoples scoffed at the Trillion Dollar Coin meme. These charts prove them all WRONG!
Wickedly sarcastic. BZ
GREEN SHOOOOOOOOOTS!!!!!!
Where's Banker and/or CEO compensation? Throw in the increase in CONgressional wealth. I'll bet that will tell a tale or two.
Just think if he was trying to destroy the U.S.
Oh, wait, no, no, don't tell me, are you sure?
... never mind.
STUNNING SET OF CHARTS!
The first one especially so!
Whomever the next President may be, one can bet that will be WORSE. Indeed, the most probable prediction is that Presidents will continue getting WORSE, FASTER, until there no longer is any President.
We are stuck inside of the runaway developments of SCIENTIFIC DICTATORSHIP, through which the ability to control society by backing up lies with violence is being SCIENTIFICALLY PERFECTED, (except for the problems that such "success" drives society as a whole to become more and more psychotically insane.)
No one cares and wont until this economy rolls over and dies
Then they will leap from the couch toss the remote bitch slapped by reality
Bellow WUT! dashi then dash into the street to a waiting police state right on schedule
I'm the last fan of Obama, but this is giving him entirely too much credit. Very little, if any of this, has anything to do with him, but is rather at the feet of Bernanke/Yellen. We've survived many bad presidents...not sure we will all survive this irresponsible of a Fed
Obamacare? C'mon. That was Charlie Chaplin.
Student loan creation was taken from the private sector under Obama's watch. I wondered why that was done at the time, but I guess the word from the private sector was that they were not going to keep lending when they knew that they would not get paid back. Therefor to keep the college ponzi going the .gov had to do the lending. A different President may have said 'ok well I guess the colleges will need scale back the costs' but who that would have been I have no clue. Certainly not something a Dem would do.
.
There will be growth in the spring!
MAybe my lawn if El Nino brings the rain. As for economic, you might as well consult the Magic 8 ball "Outlook not good"
Student loan debt! Another way to hide the true unemployment numbers - keep people on the books as students
Let's see what chart "10" look likes AFTER Yellin's announcement.
We got the hope and change promised.
Get this: Obama said today, responding to some of Trump's remarks: “I’m here to say there’s nothing particularly patriotic or American about talking down America, especially when we stand as one of the few sources of economic strength in the world.” http://www.nationaljournal.com/s/73097/donald-trump-is-getting-under-pre...
Has Obama ever talked UP America? Has Moochelle ever said anything but negative things about America?
The US does have a fucking enormous economy, especially in relation to it's size so it isn't all shit you know.
Holy fuck ... He's campaigning for his third term ...
Mission Accomplished? Not yet, first a a major economical crash followed by a big false flag after which WWIII, further population reduction followed by a final take over by the NWO.
But I don't think they can pull it off after the false flag because that will be the point that many people in the know will say, enough is enough.
After those events we'll be under martial law ... and who will resist that? If your block watch group has not prepped for that, resistance will be futile and your wife and children will be adrift.
No doubt the FED is the #1 destroyer. But #2 is Congress.
I believe part of the problem with Congress is always tacking other things on to bills so that a particular important item cannot be voted upon as a singular measure. Everybody says "that's the way Congress works".
Well, I asked Bernie Sanders at a town hall meeting why the Financial Transaction Tax, which has been bouncing around in Congress for almost a decade (due to attachments), cannot be forwarded as a singular bill so we would know who voted for it and who voted against it. He actually responded with a thoughtful answer and ultimately said that he did agree with me on the basic concept.
Another Dem I posed this question to in 2008 responded by saying "ask the Republicans". I know Bernie's not popular here but he has honor and comittment to his ideals - regardless of what you think of them.
Agreed. Capital gains taxation is a fig leaf, a joke. If it was a sliding tax so it took the motivation for rapid transactions away, perhaps the markets could return to "normal". Hedging for farmers and other commodity users and producers are legitimate. The rest is just plain evil. Let the speculators take their money to Vegas, or Macao. If the transaction tax on any trade less than a day was 98%, HFT would evaporate quickly.
The proof this would work is you will never see it discussed or debated. The meat puppets have been groomed to avoid anything that would solve financial problems and reduce the banksters cut.
Fuck you Bernanke, and the Greenspan you rode in on.
So.... Which other global leader used the word "folk" as much as the Obione does? Hint, for him the word was spelled with a 'v' ....
I so needed this. Thanks ZH. on facebook there's a graph going around that has Which Political Party Creates More Jobs and its clearly the democrats on this pic that goes w/the story which is making me want to puke. The guy even states, once you get to the link that explains it, is clearly not methodical. He picks and choose when his stop points are but the FB masses eat it up in their echo chamber of 'likes' of pages and soon to be a 'dislike' button to choose which means what? Those pages won't be able to be on FB? I smell opportunity.
Here's the meme generator that carter was a great job creator! - Not a fake page.
http://politicsthatwork.com/democrats-create-more-jobs.php
Come on you mean the stagflation and gas lines weren't freaking awesome!?!
You read Facebook and you expect intelligence?? Holy shit man, do you watch CNBC too?
"but the FB masses eat it up in their echo chamber of 'likes' of pages and soon to be a 'dislike' button to choose which means what?".
Here is a clue to what that might mean. Look up and see the "up" and "down" votes. That's basically what it will mean.
How do they count jobs for wetbacks .... oops, I meant illegal aliens ..... FUCK, I meant undocumented workers, or whatever dude ..
But the stock market THROUGH THE ROOF!!!
something looks broken
Question to anyone in the know... why did he use 2013 figures?
