“Let’s look at the Minneapolis Fed’s data for every business cycle since the end of World War II. As you can see, we’re currently mired in the most anemic recovery on record. The employment data is even worse than the GDP data. The comparison of Reaganomics with BushObamanomics is startling. There was a jobs boom in the 1980s, while today we haven’t even recovered all the jobs lost during the downturn. And if we look at the current ‘recovery’ compared to all other business cycles, it becomes even more apparent that big government is generating very bad results for the American people.”
