(CNSNews.com) - The Congressional Budget Office’s budget and economic outlook released this month projects that real Gross Domestic Product will grow by 3.3 percent from the fourth quarter of 2017 to the fourth quarter of 2018.
That would mark a 15-year high.
“In CBO’s projections, real GDP expands by 3.3 percent this year and by 2.4 percent in 2019,” says the CBO report. “It grew by 2.6 percent last year.”
The last time real GDP grew by more than 3.3 percent from the fourth quarter of one year to the fourth quarter of the next was in 2003, when it grew by 4.4 percent, according to the historical data published by the Bureau of Economic A
lol it's a projection, shew smh

Two points:
1 - you do understand what "projects" means?
2 - the CBO is "projecting" (hint for 1 above) for 2019, a year after the tax cuts have been in place, the GDP growth won't be as high as the actual number for 2017. That's some shitty tax breaks.
WE are already at 2.9 with a correction yet to come. Since we are already into the year, I would say that they feel fairly confident in what they published. It would never have happened in the previus admin.
Would you assume that is the reason Hillary named us "deploreables"? That did not buy her sweetness much breathing room. But she lost the election because of other people and not her inability to get along and produce an acceptable agenda?
I mean I guess Trump could go all quantitative easing and continue the same artificially stabilizing approaches that Obama took. Part of the revised CBO estimate which show downward trend in the outyears stems from rising inflation, ergo rising interest rates, and the 10 year end to the tax cuts. Obama was using that method to prolong stabilized growth waiting for an economy boom that never came.
A massive tax cut and even massiver spending bill....I think rising interest rates is a safe bet. That or we're not getting near a 3% GDP year.
Actually the numbers are out.
2.3% for Q1 2018

Damn! How about those tax cuts! The economy is on fire! I just knew trickle down economics worked. I'm glad we have a "business man"in the White House.
Maybe you just mean American in some anti-socialist way....but it really has some basic connotations that suck. If you’re meaning it to be a literal commentary on his “questionable” birth certificate, let it go. If it’s a comment about his lack of adhering to your conservative principles, it’s just wrong.
You should get a job.Stonewall quit his job.......with the US Military......opcorn:
Grant was doing Jobe? We already had our first gay President I guess.
—insert conservative making Obama’s joke here—
Stonewall quit his job.......with the US Military......
Good point. None of the people that were in the US military at the time of secession and then left to fight for the Confederacy were doing their job.
Well, in the sense that anybody doing anything was just doing their job, yes. Hitler was just doing his job too.
The only reason people in the CSA military were "just doing their job" was because they quit their job in the USA and signed up with the CSA military (to fight against the USA military).
I don't know what Ben Shaprio would think about this but I seriously doubt he'd be on the side of the CSA.
And actually, in the minds of the Confederates they were NOT "Americans" in the most common use of that word, namely people that are a part of the United States of America.
The whole war was over the fact that people in the South DID NOT WANT to be Americans anymore.
You are so full of retard it's laughable......if they were "American citizens", then why did this have to happen?
Unfortunately, Lee was not fully pardoned, nor was his U.S. citizenship restored.
Dave, umm, no......they weren't......if they were all "Americans", then why did Government leaders have to "give back" Lee's and Davis' "citizenship rights" later?
Because they were Americans all along and taking away their citizens rights was wrong.
When you take up arms against the USA, you lose your citizenship, moron.

They RENOUNCED their citizenship, dumbass.........thus that is why they had to be granted their full citizenship rights back.......this is not an opinion that you can have, Dave.......simply saying "it was wrong" won't cut it........the government had to grant their rights back to them, thus they were not "American citizens" during the Civil War..... moron.....
