Business Insider’s job chart just keeps getting scarier

Behold the red line. That’s our economy and its “recovery,” as compared with previous recoveries since WWII.

This chart measures the percentage of jobs lost during various recessions, and the pace of recovery. As you can see, this recession saw WAY more aggressive job cutting than in the past, and the recovery has been anemic.

Follow the link above to see an even scarier chart. Obama’s dream team is a pack of clueless dopes.

    Bryan, you write “Follow the link above for an even scarier chart.” An even scarier chart? I haven’t clicked on the link, mainly because I don’t think I want to see a chart any scarier than that one. It’s awful. The one thing it shows—other than how dire the economy is—is why President Obama is invariably out playing golf. He doesn’t want to see anything scarier than a golf ball on a tee. Coward. If all he wanted to do was play golf, he could have spared the country a lot of grief by just joining a country club.

    Yeah, but like, it woulda been worse without Obama…. I mean, think of all the caddying jobs he’s created.
