Obama has been in office for 6 years.
The Dems owned the Senate and House for 2 years.

Nothing got done.
Wake up here. It's not the RWNJ's.

And The U.S. House of Representatives has passed 356 bills that are sitting in the Senate on Harry Reids desk. Obviously he didn't get the go ahead from Obama.

Harry Reid needs to get off his self-constructed throne, roll up his sleeves and get back to work.

Over the last 5 years, the number in poverty has increased by nearly 31%, to 49.7 million, with the poverty rate climbing by over 30% to 16.1%. This is another natural result of negligible economic growth, paltry job creation, declining real wages, and the worst economic recovery since the Great Depression.

Republicans oppose welfare that eliminates poverty.
Republicans oppose high min wages that eliminate poverty.
And republicans block middle class tax cuts that stop people from falling into poverty.

GOP Senators Reject Tax Cuts for Middle Class - CBS News

If republicans gave aid to the poor, gave workers higher wages, and gave the middle class tax cuts, then there would be less poverty.

But republicans won't do things to eliminate poverty, they only do this.

Democrats want welfare that keep people in poverty.
Democrats want to make more poor by raising minimum wage. Of course this won't resinate with you because it's too complicated for you to get.

You can't really be living in utopia thinking that a little more money will answer all your questions right?

The Poor: spend everything they get.
The Middle Class: As they make more money they buy liabilities (more bills).
The Rich: buy assets that put money into their pocket.

As long as you're unwilling to take a risk and start your own business you'll always be crying for more money.

The poor spend all their money on housing, food and transportation when you get paid so little that is about where all your money goes. So once again you are saying only good things about your buddies the rich and trashing everyone else.

How is welfare keeping people in poverty it is keeping them out many people without welfare would end up homeless. How is raising the min wage gonna make more poor it puts more money in their hand. If you say raising min wage would just increases from what I have seen as long as you do not raise min wage a huge amount at once prices do not really go up that much less then a dollar. Giving the poor more money may not solve every problem no but it is a good start.

Starting your own business isn't the answer if you don't have enough working space to be profitable.
