any proof that your economy is declining? and if so, how much? how much does it have to do with the disastrous bush presidencies? are you worse off now than during bush years (who got to coast off clinton years of prosperity)

obama has created a ton of jobs, offered you healthcare, as much as it is. what exactly has he done to put your country in the "greatest depression the us has ever known". Do you foresee lines for soup kitchens any time soon like those from the great depression? or do you like exaggerating like the crazy hobos with the end is nigh board signs?

We now have elected a Republican majority House and Senate, so I am hoping they can slow the Obama agenda down for the next two years when we can elect a Republican president to start turning things around.

I believe most of the people now understand that the ACA was a lie and a fraud on the American people. I don't know where that ton of jobs went unless the illegal immigrants, Obama wants to allow to stay, have taken them illegally.

By what measure has the economy been "declining" over the last five years?

No, the gist of American politics is screwing over the American people and blaming the other party for it.

U.S. Economy Slides Deeper Into Decline

Even the liberal New York Times, one of the Democrats' biggest apologists, pointed out that the economy's failing grade was actually a continuation of what Americans have been experiencing ever since Obama's first year in office, without any sustained improvement.

"For all the attention devoted to the quarterly fluctuations, the current underlying rate of expansion is not much different from the frustratingly slow trajectory in place ever since the economy began to recover from the Great Recession," the Times said.

3 disturbing charts showing the alarming decline of US economic dynamism

Historically, the formation of new businesses is an important source of job growth in the U.S., and job creation through business creation was as high as 2 million new jobs a quarter in 1999. But that number has been steadily declining since then, and the third quarter of 2013 saw only 1.3 million jobs created by new business formation—an improvement from the end of recession but still below pre-2008 levels.

So... what is the measure? The economy is in decline as long as job creation is below 2 million/year? I didn't realize you were so strongly in favour of more immigration.

hehe, this is hilarious.

obama is creating jobs, but he is incompetent because he doesn't manage to create them fast enough. the job market is on the ascendent, but obama is incompetent because it isn't at the same level as before the recession.

Well, it doesn't make much sense to "blame" something like this on anyone - job creation cannot consistently outpace the growth of the population in the labour force. Taking the average of the last couple of years, the labour force grows by less than 1 million per year, so taking a job growth of 2 million per year as a benchmark is... well, let's just say... not very smart.
