Don't know about you but everyone I know including myself are now better off when compared to the crap we endured during the Bush Administration. (Stealing from the poor and giving to the rich).
I had a 60k salary which ended in 2006 due to the financial meltdown and real estate was about to pop a few years later.
I was jobless for 2+ years. Only had 300 bucks left in savings. Had to move back to my parents.
Then, Obama won the election and everything changed for me.
I now have my own place, have a 4 unit rental and have my own business. I work barely 5 hours a week.
From 60k under the Clinton Admin to 0 during the Bush admin to now, in the six figures.
Thanks Obama!
Stocks is up, Economy is up, gas price is down, real estate made a recovery, everyone has health care. Man we have it good!
Not sure why Republicans are crying. We're making more money than ever. I have 100k sitting stocks alone.
I don't believe any of those self serving statements.
First off it's not about you, it's about the economy.
Too many still on government assistance. Long term unemployment is still too high
Before the crash 1 in 6 who were unemployed were long term unemployment. Now it's 1 in 4. Long term is where you loose the most workers for good.
Prices rising faster than wages.

You're a greedy one percenter who has won life's lottery.
Really? Because I wasn't working my butt off in 2006 when I got laid off? And couldn't find a good paying job for 1+ years because of how bad the economy was under Bush?
Ah, after the Democrats gained control of the House and Senate and tanked the economy. I'm sure you conveniently forgot the full employment that happened for years before that happened, or maybe no one wanted to hire you then either.
I call B.S. on this post. What kind of person would credit a Presidential election for their success rather than their own hard work?
A liberal. The kind of person who complains about Bush tax cuts (that went to everyone) that Obama continued and calls a presidential term a "regime". Any bets that he NEVER refers to Obamas regime that way?
Ask small business owners and self-employed individuals if their health care costs and coverage are/were better under Bush or Obama. We all know the answer to that, don't we.

just because he was dumb enough to hold stocks at constant all-time highs
despite bad economy, and was rewarded for it, makes him a genius, until one
morning, he's not, and those who shorted the market win this time.
it's called gambling.
