Many Americans are aware that George W. Bush has had the worst job creation record since the government began tracking these figures in 1939. But Bush's colossal failure to manage the economy overshadows a much larger story.



The record shows two unmistakable patterns:
Every time a Republican succeeds a Democrat in the White House, the job creation rate plummets.
Every time a Democrat succeeds a Republican in the White House, the job growth rate soars. Every time! No exceptions!


Over the last seventy years, the decrease in monthly job creation when a Republican succeeds a Democrat is 68,913

Considering the steady growth in population of the United States during this time frame the job creation rate should steadily increase each month (currently it must grow by 138,000 per month to keep up with population growth). This trend only manifests itself when examining Democratic administrations:

Listed below is the average job growth increase for all terms served:

4. Only one HUGE problem

Most of the jobs created since NAFTA are service or government jobs.

America MUST return it's manufacturing base.

5. Almost no jobs of any kind were produced by George W. Bush

I agree we need manufacturing jobs. But the point here is Republicans come in a distant second to Democratic job creation regardless of the era.

"Bubble up economics" of President Obama and the Democratic Party have turned the 800,000 jobs lost per month he and we inherited from Bush into a positive growth of 162,000 jobs gained last month.

A remarkable accomplishment by any standard, but a predictable accomplishment to those that have studied the record of job creation of the last 70 years.
