The voting records show that the youth overwhelming voted for Obama.
All those stats came out shortly after the election was over.
So what, that doesn't mean the young homeless adults voted for Obama, or even voted. Voter participation rate is around 50%, and Obama received slightly more than half of actual voters. That means that only 1 out of every 4 young people voted for Obama.
The chances that these homeless people voted for Obama is 1 out of 4 at best.
I don't know what this has to do with "Obama's Socialist America." I suppose you are just still stinging from the election.
But the article you cite shows the problem clearly:
Wages have not kept up with costs. This is purely an income inequality issue that conservatives won't open their eyes to.
It's not a matter of failed Socialism, it's a matter of failed capitalism, where a greater and greater share of income is concentrated into a smaller and smaller group.
Hey..nice chart. Why did it stop at 2008 ? I'm curious to see the pattern from 2008-present and how close it resembles the Great Depression.

Did you really think they would vote for Romney after he declared he did not care about people like the ones living on the street? Romney dismissed them as scum. Of course they voted for Obama.
Urbanlife, I would be very interested to hear how you think the recession was caused. I read a book called "What Caused The Financial Crisis" which was a comprendium of about 20-25 scholarly articles written by PhDs and researches that attributed the causes of the crisis to about 20-25 (each arcticle was about 1 factor) factors working at once to cause a perfect storm for what we got in 2008.
I have a feeling you are just going to blame the Republican Party, unless I'm mischaracterizing your post.
I bet you have a better understanding than the OP.
"After Recession, More Young Adults Are Living on Street; I Bet The Majority Of The Fools Voted For Obama"
Silly fools. Don't they know if they would of voted for Romney he would of gave them entitlements and FEMA trailers?
