I am doing just fucking fine -- sorry some of you are not.
I have survived under every president since Kennedy (that I can remember). The worst years were from 1970 - 1984 -- both Republicans and Democrats were controlling things so there is no point in my mind of idiocy depending on party politics.
Kennedy = 7 (but he didn't live to see a second term)
Johnson = 6.5 (the Civil Rights Act and Medicaid were his saving grace -- the Vietnam War the nightmare he made)
Nixon =2 (total fuckup and a criminal liar and sociopath)
Ford =0 (bumped into walls for a year)
Carter =3 ( good man, truthful but not worldly, BTW he has a very high IQ)
Reagan =3 (gutted the US economy until 1983)
Bush I = 5 (was more realistic about economics than Regan was)
Clinton =8 (understood the digital economy's potential -- I finally made some money and got ahead
+ he got a BJ in his office :0D )
Little Bush II =1 (total disgrace -- he gets a one because I made out on the Bonus depreciation he got enacted)
Obama = 7
- Obama got us almost out of the economic hole Little Bush II dug for us.
- However, an illusionary economy was created to try and undo hardship so there is going to be a price to be paid.
- I don't have an issue with Obamacare.
- His standoffishness on the ME conflict is probably justified in retrospect of events.
I have almost tripled the assets I had when Obama was first elected and reduced my debt to -0- but I don't really credit Obama for this -- most of my money was made outside of the USA. I am a small time global player. Today's economy is a world economy and not your father's USA ...
