Fact Checks (2)

"GDP has been growing less than 2% for the last 5 years"

Half True

Five-year rolling average 2008-2012 is technically below 2% due to the 2008-2009 recession contractions (-0.1%, -2.5%), but this predates most Obama-era policy and the framing implies chronic underperformance attributable to current administration rather than inherited crisis.

"ObamaCare will slow us down even more"

Unverifiable

Forward-looking opinion claim as of posting date. Empirical evidence on ACA's macro-GDP impact was contested; no broad GDP suppression materialized at the level implied. CBO projected modest labor supply effects. Unfalsifiable as a prospective claim.
