The article below concurs with my memory that the bank bailouts were bi-partisan public policy across the administrations of both George W. Bushbama and Barack Bushbama. I found it by googling "Obama bank bailout" for about 2 minutes. There were a *lot* of results.
Clinton's economic policies gutted what was left of the American industrial base.
It's tempting to speculate whether B. Clinton was a paid agent of the Chinese government, since he certainly did a magnificent job of advancing PRC interests at the expense of the American people.
But really, he *probably* wasn't literally a traitor. He was just a vile capitalist stooge who held working and middle class people in contempt, and was happy to throw them under the bus in order to enrich himself and his buddies.
GDP itself is a complex, controversial statistic. I would be more interested in seeing the historical budget numbers represented as ounces of gold. I.e. divide the budget for a year by the average price of gold for that year.
Sure there will be some noise from fluctuations in commodity supply and demand. But it's one of the least complicated, least politicized ways to compare values of money over time.
Slashdot had a far more sophisticated and robust moderation system and rather less censorship than most other news-related forums. I suspect information warriors from many different organizations use it as an R&D battleground.

The rules are simple:

3. You lose
4. Bow before the nomenklatura
5. Fuck you, plebs
I guess that's why the current regime needs a repressive police state to maintain its grip on power.
Vlad, Vlad, Vlad.... don't you know, there are ZERO Nazis in the United States. Find something less obviously false to propagandize.
Yes, violently neo-puritan feminism causes mass shootings. Does this surprise anyone at all?
They're certainly less free.
Aussies are great people. I hope they get their country back.
Bots made me fart.
Suicide is a human right.
HFS - high frequency shilling

"consentless data collection"
I believe the preferred term is "data rape".
Not only that, but he spit on my shoes AND insinuated that my granny sucks eggs. That bastard!!
Good morning, Agent Smith! How's the weather in Fort Meade today?

Well bro, Obama could have chosen not to do the bailout, and just let the big banks fail. He was President.
Nonsense! CNN would NEVER lie.
Also, water is dry, the Pope is Lutheran, and bears only shit on robotoilets in downtown Tokyo.
Slashdot has always been political. That's why people come here.
You're just butthurt that many nerds favored Emperor Trump over his opponent The Butcher of Libya.

Yup, Bush was a horrible president.
But don't forget Obama's multi-trillion dollar giveaway to the big bankers. Selling out the people is a bipartisan sport.
Obama's policies advanced Chinese interests? No, not possible! The big O definitely wasn't a tool of the Chinese, no siree.
Obama did not start the military adventure Iraq. He also did not end it.
I ordered lunch at Chipotle, and Donald Trump stole my guacamole! Then he gave it to Vladimir Putin!!
It's not a conspiracy, it's an observation.
If you believe information warfare is not happening on many fronts today, you're either dense or (more likely) willfully ignorant.
How much of the revenue increase at NYT was black money from USIC? Gotta keep that semi-official propaganda factory humming!
