Hard To Believe Dept. – Where Economic Strategies Come From

Posted on the 19 May 2012 by Btchakir @btchakir

Former President George W. Bush is writing a book on—wait for it—strategies for economic growth.

Yeah, that George W. Bush.

The one who ate up our budget surplus that he inherited after the Clinton administration and turned it into massive debt. The one who got us into this great recession BEFORE Obama ever took office.

As the Economic Policy Institute put it best of all:

“…between the end of the 2001 recession (2001Q4) and the peak of that expansion (2007Q4), the U.S. economy experienced the worst economic expansion of the post-war era.”

So, unless Bush calls his book “What I Did Wrong” I’m not sure anyone will take it with any seriousness.
