Respectfully, in reply:
1) I have never been a fan of Obama, and my lengthy post history here only supports that. I think spending has been out of control my entire life, regardless who has held the top office. I am fiercely independent, but I have tended to vote (R) because they claim to be for responsible spending...except when they are responsible for the spending.
2) The evidence is conflicted *at best* when it comes to the long term effects of unfunded tax breaks for the wealthy...including enough wiggle room to suspect the cuts actually trigger economic crisis.
3)No, I really don’t. I think the economy is larger than one man, and the economy we act in today is the result of decisions made sometimes years in the past. I don’t think the current economic climate has much to do with Trump at all...I think we’d be here whether Clinton or Cruz currently occupied the big chair.
Like I said at the beginning of my post...I’m no fan of the way Obama used that office. I wanted to replace him with someone *better* than Obama. Instead, we got someone not quite as bad as HRC. To me that barely qualifies as a base hit, let alone a home run.
I think our country is tracking the wrong path, and that Trump is heading down the same path as Obama was and Clinton would...if MAYBE at a bit slower pace. Maybe.
