The Obama Stimulus: Predictions vs. Reality
The answer is: Not well.
But first, some references.
- I got all my data from one extremely boring source, the Bureau of Labor Statistics. At the moment, all the data is in the economic summary, but I assume that will change as the weeks go on, so you can also check the historical unemployment tables.
- The chart that President Obama used is in this document on how the stimulus will effect the economy.
- Special thanks to Geoff at Innocent Bystanders. Last month, he started charting how the numbers Obama used to sell the stimulus were matching to the actual numbers. So I can’t claim the idea as my own.
So, Obummer is full of crap? Uh…..yup!
