The Great Depression Onwards
The graphic of blue and red GDP growth should be removed. It has no source, no legend, and no units. Please remove it. egbegb Ed Bradford 2022-05-01 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Egbegb (talk • contribs) 06:10, 1 May 2022 (UTC)


 * I agree. The labels on the x axis are hard to read. 76.149.68.94 (talk) 00:28, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

The Obama recovery
Someone needs to add in the Obama recovery. People are already referencing in texts. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.240.92.52 (talk) 17:45, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

19th Century
Anyone have any books or sources on economic expansion in the 19th century? From what I have heard 1820-1850 and 1870-1900 saw two of America's greatest booms. — Preceding unsigned comment added by NeoStalinist (talk • contribs) 17:04, 24 May 2015 (UTC)


 * I've tagged the page with since there is almost no content about expansions prior to 1945.&thinsp;&mdash; Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs)&thinsp; 18:35, 5 September 2017 (UTC)

Can someone add in the Obama expansion - people come to this page for comparison.
US has seen long expansion - private sector jobs etc. Someone should add in data?? Likely to be one of the longest expansions over last 80-90 years. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.53.242.86 (talk) 12:59, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

Obama recovery
I have added this comment in each year, starting in 2013, then 2015, now 2016. Can someone add in some text about the Obama recovery.

At least once it ends in mid-2018.

Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.152.9.30 (talk) 23:44, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Obama boom
Can someone put in section on the Obama boom, from 2009-January 2017.

Economic expansion was always likely to end in 2018, but with poor management, cycle may top out in 2017. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.224.32.142 (talk) 12:14, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
