is there any way you guys think that america will get better
im not asking will it get better, or how it will.
cuz right now it sucks!!!!!
i went to japan with 5000 dollars and only got back about 2700 dollars back (but in yen of course)
thats almost half! i could only stay in japan for about a week only buying food and train tickets (stayed with family)
its been bad for a couple years now but loosing nearly half my money is just wow
and our "leader" is eating at $5 burger places... no class. we need a new president to fix things
The dollar dropped when Bush was in office, it rallied shortly after Obama was elected, dropped and is now higher than when I moved to Europe this time, from Japan where I lived for several years.
During the Bush administration, when I lived in Japan, the dollar dropped from 117 high to 85 low.
As you can see it is now rallying.
You couldn't live on 459k yen for a week when you were staying with family?
Even if you got a very bad exchange rate with 400k yen for the week, you'd be able to spend extravagantly.
I find this OP to be highly suspect; okay, absolutely unbelievable.
Eating in Japan is relatively inexpensive; mass transit, the same unless you're taking the bullet train.
What were you doing?
What does Obama have to do with this? If I enjoy $5 hamburgers, why not eat them.
Sounds good to me.
You might want to get your facts straight.
Your entire premise is dishonest and apparently a transparent attempt to besmirch Obama.

You want a new President because things cost more in Japan?
The current president is the one that is attempting to assure a more secure enviornment for the "average" (read not wealthy) american. . . and you want to get rid of him in order to allow the Republicans to continue their "government by and for the wealthy and powerful" agenda? I fail to see how that will help you.

I'm no fan of BO, but he stands accused of eating $5 burgers?
I think the OP is a good example of additional spending needed in American education. At least in reasoning and crafting cogent arguments.
If you hit the find all posts about this user he spent trolling around CD with things like drugging it up and making racist comments in primarily the Denver area forums. Just another stormfronter being a jerk.
Perhaps he went back to Japan, I'm sure a hamburger can cost $5 there
