Yeah, things are so bad in this country =
unemployment is down
economy has improved
taxes have NOT increased
bin laden in dead
no terrorist attacks
meaningful financial reforms
etc.
YEP! Such horrible stuff.
You forgot to add one thing.
You don't need a job, you're part of the GibsMeDat Crowd so you're on easy street.
When Obama was elected in 2008, almost overnight I started hearing from friends and reading posts that America was doomed and would just flat out fall apart. Instead, not only are we still here but I'm one of those people who can say that life is much better for me now than after the 2008 election. So, to the people saying America is doomed, how much longer is this going to take?
Here too. I have to admit, we are doing better now than during the god-awful Bush years. Not great, but better, things have been more stable, if that means anything. Could just be a "house of cards" we're in, but that wasn't going to be corrected with Romney either.
Its not goig to collapse any more than it did in 39 or 2007. In thios wrold economy its individual;s that decline not antion as a whole.I time the chinese middle class will far out number all the wetern world.It all about the perosn 'attitude and desires to succeed.

UE is NOT DOWN, those stats are twisted because most of the jobs gained are part time. So is that considered gainful employment?
The economy has improved if you are in the UAW or work for one of the big auto companies.
We have seen more money come out of my husband's paycheck in the last 4 years, our hiuse value is down almost $100k, and now, the medical sector is in HUGE trouble because of Obamacare...
Yep, getting better...
If you had $100k worth of house to lose and not dumpster diving for dinner, you have nothing to complain about. You have the world by the short hairs.
A LOT of people found themselves out on the street after the Bush housing bubble popped because they overbought with ridiculous financing plans. You're winning if you're still in it and havent been foreclosed.
If the GOP ever takes control of the White House, House & Senate at the same time...
Do you realize that in the president's own budget on the OMB website that by 2016 payments towards the debt will equal $400 billion a year?
And you believed his Obamagoguery that raising taxes on the rich $50 billion a year is going to make life fair?
He even had the audacity of Obamagoguery to say knowing that by 2022 he's willing to accept a "Total, debt subject to statutory limitation" of $25,936,000,000,000:

We must transform our economy from one focused on speculating, spending, and borrowing to one constructed on the solid foundation of educating, innovating, and building. That begins with putting the Nation on a path to living within our means
I suppose you think that's just grand because "this system sucks" anyways and anything must be better than what we had...
