No country can avoid having bid deficits after a crisis, you dumbass. If you try to eliminate the deficit the crisis only becomes worse. Nobody, including competing economic schools in the left and right, argue this (lolbertarians don't count for obvious reasons)
The fun thing is, Obama actually left a very small budget deficit, as you can see in pic related.
>that 30 year old boomer who does not realize that job participation is becoming lower because boomers are retiring and the participation rate is naturally becoming larger
All those "experts" who claim that unemployment numbers are not real because of participation, but don't mention how many of that participation raise is because of boomers retiring, don't deserve a second of my attention
>Used government to employ (YUUUGE govt. growth under Obama while simultaneously shrinking military).
This is FALSE, I just looked it up and the fact that you are stating it means that you are clueless -> i.imgur.com/8WoBlsb.png (from fred.stlouisfed.org/series/USGOVT)
The big uptick in 2010 is because of the census, which temporally increases the employment by a lot - I mention it because since you are a trump fan you probably don't have a fucking clue about it
>Began considering 24 hr/week workers employed; a demographic he EXPLODED thanks to Obamacare.
The bureau of labor provides SIX different ways of measure unemployment statistics (many of which, by the way, show a higher unemployment figure than what you trumpets like to believe). Please educate yourself before trying to look like you know something bls.gov/news.release/empsit.t15.htm
The fun thing is that there are a lot of reasons to criticize the Obama economy but trumpism ignores them. For instance, the recovery is partly based in an increase in household debt, which has already surpassed the peak of the crisis (newyorkfed.org/newsevents/news/research/2017/rp170517).
