{"product_id":"9781880026090","title":"They're Not Even Close","description":"The Democratic and Republican Parties are virtual opposites of each other in their economic records, going back to the earliest period for which economic data were available, around 1910. More than a dozen studies have been done comparing economic growth, unemployment, average length of unemployment, stock market performance, inflation, federal debt, and other economic indicators, during Democratic and Republican presidencies and congresses, and they all show stunningly better performance when Democrats are in power, than when Republicans are. These studies are all available online, and they are all summarized and discussed in this path-breaking book, which settles, once and for all, the question of whether there's any significant economic difference between the two Parties. Not only is there a difference, but - shockingly - it always runs in favor of Democrats in power. There might be other types of reasons for voting Republican, but all of the economic reasons favor voting for Democrats. Regarding economic performance, the two Parties aren't even close. \u003cp\u003e------- \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCONTENTS \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e4: Democrats Are Better for the Stock Markets \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e10: Democrats Are Plain Better for the Economy \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e19: The Grand Old Prejudice Causes Economic Stagnation \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e40: Democrats Reduce, Republicans Increase, Government Deficits \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e46: Republicans Actually Win by Punishing the Nation \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e105: Conservatism Is Based Only on Faith \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e114: Trickle-Down vs. Percolate-Up Economics \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e122: Republicans Harm More than Just the Economy \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e123: Would Romney Be Better than Obama? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e125: References\/Sources\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hyacinth Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47039592562928,"sku":"9781880026090","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781880026090_p0.jpg?v=1763603902","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781880026090","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
