Making America Great, Images And Graphs -- November, 2016 -- November, 2017

This was in draft. It appears that I originally drafted it August 20, 2017, to be posted later. I'm posting it now simply to close out several posts in draft.

Read GDP, historical:


Unemployment:


The graph above is hard to interpret. At least it was for me. Two points are being made:
  • after the November, 8, 2017, election, the overall U3 unemployment plummeted
  • the Journal focused on the unemployment rate of those who "flipped" -- those who had voted for Obama in the previous election, but voted for Trump in this election -- although the bold red line catches one's attention, it appears that "all" voters participated in better employment picture
But then, connect that bold red line to specific states -- Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania -- the three states that gave the election to Trump were "in" that red line. See graph below.
