Haven't read the thread - but we are not better off. I was laid off - my husband took a pay cut - we're nearing retirement age and fearful we'll never be able to retire. I see more division between the races. More lawlessness. Stupidity the norm and snowflakes that feel they deserve everything for doing nothing besides an increase in social programs because the economy has gone to pot and Obama continues making money to shore up the market.
I can say this. Being an adult through two presidents, I can say it doesn't always matter. I had issues living under the Bush administration in my early adulthood. My father started to have problems towards the last year of it. I had issues finding work while I was in college. I struggled during the Obama administration. From 2015-onward, this is the best my life has ever been. Full time work, decent pay, I am doing fine. Better than I was in 2008. Better than in 2012. Better than in 2004. My father has been doing better under the 2nd part of the Obama administration than under Bush.

Yet the housing market along with the depletion of 401k's occurred under Bush's watch.
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.
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.
Your lies won't help Clinton, sorry. Not even a good troll. ---> Ignore

Thanks Obama!

Do you transport illegals during your 5 hours of work each week? How do you buy four apartments with only $300? That small business you run 🏃, you didn't build that. That was Obama.
Actually with all those stocks, you are part of the 1% oppressors that clearly don't pay enough taxes. Are you donating any salary? Are you volunteering at any soup kitchens? Do you have any guilt for having so much money? 💰
The job market is very limited for most people, and many small business employers are only hiring part time to avoid Obamacare requirements.
Unemployment is much higher than the figures show because so many people have dropped off the radar that no longer are even looking for a job.
Under Obama, black unemployment has skyrocketed, and welfare, food stamps and the like have reached historic levels.
I could go on, but it will likely be ignored since you are clearly a partisan just trying to promote your ideology at the expense of real suffering in this country.
So I am glad to hear you are doing well, but don't assume others are praising Obama like you are trying to do.
