Relax It is the plan, notice i didn't say part of the plan. It is the plan to impoverish everyone but for the Elite, Obama's new world order.
There will be 3 classes.
The Elite, those workers in FEMA Camps who provide for the Elite (the helpless PC workers) and criminals, both kinds, real ones and guys like us who will not obey.
You mean the Obama who wants to tax the elite high income earners more? That Obama?
Glen Beck debunks the FEMA Camp thing and Alex Jones picks it up. Next....
Everyone needs a hobby. Some chose conspiracy theories.
Bill Clinton's shining moment was when he signed that NAFTA and China trade deal that got rid of many millions of jobs. That's where it all started if you really paid any attention.
And what's worse, Bill and his co-president Hillary knew full well that it would destroy cities like Detroit and pull the rug out from under so many millions of Americans. They warned back then that Americans had better start competing with cheap third world workers.
Business has to compete to survive and to do so business chases the most productive sources.
Global competition began in earnest, in the 60's, when it was cheaper to import steel due to higher U.S. labor costs.
The impetus for NAFTA actually began with Reagan.
NAFTA was signed by Bush 1 and sent to Congress for ratification.
Clinton signed the bill.
Unless I missed something, we do not have a Free Trade Agreement, with China.
The U.S. auto makers were designing and building cars inferior to the global competition. Congress reluctantly gave Chrysler a government guarantee to avoid bankruptcy/save jobs in 1979.
Strange this thread only lists, Obama and Bush as the culprits to the whole American dilemma, What about the loss of millions of jobs to other countries? What about the rise of more and more automation and computerization? Also what about the fact that most modern nations also, have high unemployment?
None of these facts matter when one engages in the " Blame the Obama" ( or Democrats) game.
This is very distressing, and really underscores the fact we need to find a permanent solution to eliminate, or reduce economic inequality. The problems of class mobility are especially heightened these days. And it doesn't matter what ethnic group you are in.

Been there already. In fact I grew up dirt poor.
Poverty is at a fifty year high and climbing, and with 0bama's economic policies things will only get worse.
BS.
The economy was steadily growing under Bush and unemployment was 5%.
If it was not your beloved Clinton who abolished Glass-Steagall and your beloved dimocraps, who forced the banks to lend to those which can not afford the mortgage - we would not have had the crisis of subprime mortgages and financial fall.
For the 100th time on this forum, the Gramm-Leach- Bliley Act eliminated some of the provisions within Glass-Steagall. Just for the record, all three of these guys, Gramm, Leach, Bliley were Republicans.
This was Greenspan's baby all along. He gave the green light to the merger of Citibank and Travelers Insurance based on his interpretation of GS. Then he went to work on Congress and obviously achieved his goal.
The blip in time, called the housing bubble fueled the economy for a very brief period in time. The housing bubble did not occur because a bill repealed some portions of the GS Act.

Very good point. And from what I see, the middle class is vanishing.
Scary to think we could one day be a nation of haves and have-nots.
