The man gets elected on his promises to fix our failed economy and to bring the troops home from Irag and Afghanistan.
Thus far he has managed to raise taxes on almost every luxury and is now sending more troops to Afghanistan.
I know our former pres. was an ass and didn't keep a single promise he made and now it seems to be politics as usual. Say what you will about Bill Clinton but at least he more then balanced our budget. The U.S. had an abundance of cash flow because we were ahead of the econmic game.
In my state alone factories and small business alike have closed their doors forever leaving the unemployment rate sky high. It is funny (ironic) when you watch the news and they report the unemployment rate is down in our country. Then right after that they report another major factory in MA. has just closed it's doors. You can argue that the report of unemployment going down is a national report not statewide but factories and small business all over the U.S. are continuing to close their doors. I think the media is dictated by the powers that be so as to give us a false hope that our economy is getting better all the time which of course is nothing short of more politicians lying to us yet again.
The experts say and I really love this one, the experts say we are in a resession. I've never gone to college but if businesses are closing anf people are getting laid off and loosing their homes and collecting unemployment just to feed their families and the U.S. dollar is worth less then the Canadian dollar isn't that a depression? Not only that if they are experts on the subject then why is our economy in the toilet. So it seems to me the so called "experts" simply get paid to come on the news and say "the experts say". Sounds like a no brainer job to me to not do anything and then report about it.
So the pres. wins the Noble Peace Prize. One question on this subject. Doesn't one usually win that for bringing peace to some place in the world? Just thought I'd ask.
I really fail to see what differnece in the future it makes who gets elected. Democrats and Republicans alike are full of shit in the White House. All they do is argue about who is right instead of doing the job they were actually elected to do by us the people. It seems after they all get elected they forget their promises and just who they are working for. Yes that would be we the people not how big your wallet is and how many vacation homes you can possibly own when people,average people can no longer afford to drive their car because you made it a law we all have to have health insurance.
The law states if you do not have health insurance you will be fined. Why fine someone who can't afford health insurance it is quite obvious if they can't afford the insurance they as sure as hell cannot afford to pay the fine. How jack ass is that law?
So lay off the average person and then tell them they have to pay for health insurance when for ten or more years their employer supplied their insurance. If you are going to do that then they should receive 125% of their normal pay not less then 100% of it.Our government cannot do simple math I guess. It must be the no child left behind act. I thought that was a good thing until I realized what they meant. Keep passing the kid to the next grade so he/she does not get left behind.
Here is one more for the economy and unemployment to suck on. Send your children to college so they can have better opportunites then you did. In theory it works and makes sense but then again to most college students who can't even change their own oil in their car everything works out on paper and that my friends is only part of the problem.
Full-time college student has little or no time to have a job ao they are not getting the life experience they need to make it through everyday life. They graduate and then they can't find a job in their field because the economy is still in the damn toilet. Meanwhile the education that their parents paid for cost thousand among thousands of dollars and that is gone and possibly even wasted for nothing. So now said student has to find a job or go live at home and sponge off mom and dad who are already broke ie the college years. The graduate who decides to get off their ass and get a job ends up with some dead end job at a fast food place or some place even worse thus not using the skilles they learned in college. How does this help our economy when the food chains they are working for get tax breaks for simply being a huge corporation ending in the ole stand by. "The rich get richer and the poor get poorer but they all also have to have health insurance.
Our own government has made our economy one big circular trap and it is not getting any better whatsoever and if you think it is from watching the news I have a bridge in NY for sale and some nice property in South FL for sale are you interested?
