Re: When is Enough ,Enough?
trump tries to take credit for the economy yet it was Obama's and I get hell for saying it.
Unemployment rate by year, 2009- 9.9% 2010- 9.3% 2011- 8.5% 2012- 7.9% 2013- 6.7% 2014- 5.6% 2015- 5.0% 2016- 4.7% 2017- 4.1% 2018- 3.8% Under Obama the unemployment rate fell from 9.9% to 4.7% (a decrease of 5.2%) Under Trump the unemployment rate fell from 4.1% to 3.8% (a decrease of 0.3%) https://www.thebalance.com/unemploym...y-year-3305506 https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS14000000 In Obama's last 11 months in office 2.09 million jobs were added. In the last 11 months while Trump was in office 1.84 million jobs were added. Trump's first-year jobs record was strong. Just not as strong as Obama's last year - Jan. 5, 2018 Could you please explain how Obama stopped black Americans from getting jobs, and how Trump helped black Americans get jobs? Obama passed the "Home Affordable Modification Program (HAMP), the Neighborhood Stabilization Program, the Federal Housing Administration Refinance Programs and the Emergency Homeowner Relief Fund" all of which helped homeowners. And now Trump is abolishing all those programs. https://money.cnn.com/2011/02/25/new...help/index.htm Trumps budget make drastic cuts to affordable housing programs that "help millions of low income seniors, people with disabilities, families with children, veterans, and other vulnerable people afford their homes." Trump wants to cut HUD by $8.8 billion dollars or 18.3-percent compared to 2017 levels. https://nlihc.org/article/president-...bruary-12-2018 And Trump has already transferred the above funding to the richest 1% of Americans via the Trump tax cuts. https://www.forbes.com/sites/janetno...nalysis-finds/ What has Trump done to help black Americans keep their homes?
