There are 300 million people in the US. About 7.5 billion(?) on the planet. The typical American in a trailer park lives better than billions of them over there. Your ghetto thug in Oakland has a year's wages in chrome on his bling mobile.

There are more people working for slave wages in China and India than there are in the entire US. We can't have our iPod and eat it too.

That doesn't necessarily mean its his fault. All across the country in 2009, parents pulled their kids out because they didn't want them to be indoctrinated with a regular, unharmful speech on the importance of education.

They pretend the first lady saying that eating healthy foods is...HEALTHY, is "TEH BIG LIBEL GOVERMENT TELLEN US WHAT TO DO!!1!". That's only what people have been telling their kids ever since man became knowledgeable on food on their health affects. There's nothing new about that. At all. In any way, shape, or form. Not even close. People who will pretend that's some horrible big government oppression is hopeless.

If he wants to know who to blame over the past 3 years, hand him a mirror!!!!!!
