the problem is the current government has done alot to shut down as much growth as possible.....oil prices world wide have been high enough that the current oil boom in the US has been largely immune to Obama's effects.....hell just Obamacare has done a hell of alot to stifle possible growth let alone everything else....hard to grow when most businesses are going to be required to give health care(expensive health care at that) to employees working more than 35 hours a week and where is the new growth going to come from even with low fuel prices? any improvements are going to be offset by the high cost of health insurance...
