Study: Economy Performs Better Under Democrats

And this study was done at a university for the elite. I would guess it tends to be Republican? Esp. given that their hypothesis of choice was "The bigger reason seems to be that Democratic presidents improve consumer confidence after years of slow growth under Republicans." What about policies that help workers.

A new Princeton study has found that the economy has performed better and grew faster under Democratic presidents than Republican presidents since World War II. According to the study, although there aren’t clear explanations as to why, the U.S. economy has grown by an average of 2 percent faster when a Democrat occupies the White House.

Combined, the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) grew by an average of 4.35 percent per year under Democrats, compared with 2.54 percent per year under Republicans.
