But it DIDN'T under Obama!
And I don't see a steady growth pattern that it would have, if Frau Hitlery had won the election and continued his economic policy.
Nothing in Obama's "punish the rich" economic policy and war on fossil feul industries was pro-business or pro-growth. I again say whatever rise in Obama's 8 years was IN SPITE OF Obama, not because of him.
The illusion of any growth whatsoever came from when Obama quadrupled the printing of dollars (i.e., "quantitative easing") from 800 billion in existing currency to 4.5 trillion. And with a further $ 10 TRILLION borrowing in treasury bills, used deficit spending to fill the gap of growth that wasn't happening, at tremendous cost generating the slightest illusion of growth.
That and crony capitalism where Obama gave huge no-bid contracts to companies he selected as winners who would succeed, such as Solyndra, and GE (in GE, Geoffrey Immelt one of his political backers.) And ACORN. All friends of Barack, allies politically.
