Looks like a strong downward trend, especially if you include 1982 which saw the worst recession since the Great Depression.
CP claimed that Carter left Reagan a strong economy.
That's very well established.
Funny thing about that chart. '76 ad '75 were both 5% LOSER years. When 2 out of 3 years before Carter took the reins are losers, and the one year that DID have growth DID NOT EVEN BRING THE ECONOMY BACK TO THE YEAR 1974

- that's okay. Those years were republican years. The stats don't count.
But Carter's last year - fiscal year 1981 which runs from Sept 80 to Sept 81, gained 2.6% after the only flat year of Carter's presidency. And yes, I will join every competent statistician in calling minus 2/10ths of one percent "flat" - just as YOU would call that year "flat" if the growth were PLUS 2/10ths of one percent, hack.
