QOTD: 'The contrast with the Reagan recovery is stark. During the first seven quarters of the Reagan recovery, real economic growth soared an average of 7.1%. During the first seven quarters of the Obama recovery, real growth was less than half that at 2.8%, with the last quarter at a pitiful 1.8% real growth. Gramm adds, "In 1982, unemployment reached 10.8% as the Federal Reserve tightened monetary policy in order to put the brakes on inflation...If we had matched the 1982 recovery rate, today annual per-capita income would be $4,154 higher than before the recession -- that's an extra $16,600 for a family of four -- and some 15.7 million more Americans would have jobs."' --Peter Ferrara
