This is why I am not an economist... Of course being a leader is subjective, but obviously he is doing something right... The average American is surely benefiting from this. Strong growth means more money in the pockets and more spending. If these numbers continue, no doubt he should get another term... Decreasing socialist policies will also have a positive effect on the economy.
we can get into that economic data, but it would be best to look at it after 4 to 5 years
zumas first 3 didnt look so bad either
If you cant trust a president that lies would that mean you would never trust any president.... Since they all lie?
i dont trust any president
or politician
would you agree that Zuma's corruption was on another level to Mbeki's corruption?
yet they were both corrupt
your argument is like saying, well they are all corrupt so we can just except the ridiculous turbo level corruption then
corruption is like a circle, whether it is big or small, it is still 360 degrees...
accept not except
No for sure, corrupt is corrupt and lies are lies.
Zuma's first few years were actually very unstable.
it was just 2009
the rest were fairly stable
The massive dip shows instability. After that was stable, yes.
between 2.3 and 3.5 most of the way
ag come on... you cant say massive and then remove figures
Between 2009 and 2011 were unstable for the SA economy.
At the time, they were horrid.
Yeah Stability, but no growth
is anyone going to expand on context
or are you just going to pretend that that was a direct and immediate result of zumas election?
there is no point in discussing if you are going to actively ignore facts because they dont support your position
you dont have to guess
there is data
Well Zumas presidency started on the axing of Mbeki, so of course there would be some turmoil
which I know you love
why do choose to ignore this data?
China, same period as SA's massive dip.
to drift from this.....
This is the problem, with world politics at the moment... Being unable to concede that Trumps crazy levels of dishonesty, could be a risk to business is a good example of identity politics.
if we concede one point we feel we have to concede them all
economic policies are too left leaning at the moment, some weird SJW stuff going on in the world, but this planting a flag in the ground and defending everything is the real danger
the center is dead
he did a lot to kill it, but 2 years is like a fart in the wind
It isn't. It's 2 years.
2 years is more than 0 years.
If it isn't important, then what number would you like to start at?
4 years?
