Originally posted by stl1 Why has recent history (going back to first president Bush) shown that Republicans fuck things up and Democrats have to come in to straighten things out?
Clinton defeated daddy Bush because of "It's the economy, stupid." and proceded to ramp up the economy and balance the budget.
Obama had to step in after baby Bush to save us from the worst recession since the great Depression while passing health care that no other President in the preceding 50 or more years could get done.
Now Biden will have to step in after yet another Republican has led the U.S. down a path of destruction and fear.

Quantitative easing - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantitative_easing
According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the quantitative easing policies undertaken by the central banks of the major developed countries since the beginning of the late-2000s financial crisis have contributed to the reduction in systemic risks following the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers. The IMF states that the policies also contributed to the improvements in market confidence and the bottoming-out of the recession in the G7 economies in the second half of 2009.

Originally posted by netstat Biden will be a terrible president and look far worse in follow up to the current administration who's getting shit done. Trump is an existential risk to the idiots in the establishment and their mindless followers so for anyone who cares about and plans to be around for the future of civilisation getting rid of Biden in a few months will be a step in the right direction.

1. I'm not an economist
2. All of that data is open to interpretation. How are you measuring 'economic success'? GDP, poverty levels, average household income etc.. Are you taking long term policy effects into account?
3. I don't care that much. The point is that the entire system is a mess and neither party has your best interests in mind.

The IMF also says that austerity is a viable way to improve a state's financial standing and not just an excuse to carve up public utilities and sell them off to the private sector at bargain basement prices.
QE was meant to be a temporary measure to buy time to fix the structural problems that caused the 2008 crisis, not a fix in and of itself, but of course the banks that caused it aren't about to change their policies if it impacts their profits.
