I'm just wondering why what you consider to be "economic growth" is considered a virtue when it benefits very few and is debilitating to the vast majority of people.
Isn't it interesting how economic growth is never credited with benefiting the whole of the country at all, much less the average working class joes, but lack of economic growth is a disaster that will put working class people out of jobs, make us lose our homes, and otherwise do horrible things to all those average joes out there?
Funny how so few people even notice the inconsistency there.

Your fallacious economic theories mean very little to the average person who has lost their job, home, or savings in the last 8 years.
Which side spouts the fallacious economic ideas here? Seriously. Stop and think for a moment before moving on...
Let me also point out that your statement is meaningless rhetoric. No economic theories mean much to the "average person who has lost their job, home, or savings in the last 8 years". Cause by definition you've limited this set of people to those who lost out economically. That makes it meaningless since you can say that no matter what economic theories were involved or how well they performed relatively speaking.
Unless you're trying to argue that the "average person" within the entire economy has lost those things, which wouldn't just be fallacious but an out and out falsehood.
