Think of where you were eight years ago and where you are now? Are you better off?
Yes, I certainly am better off than 8 years ago.
Most defiantly I am better off.
Much so.
Yes. (Though I was about 20% better off last year LOL!)
I am as well...but I had to work for it.
From what I’m told, work wasn’t necessary before Bush took office, and now from what I’m told, starting today it isn’t anymore, either.
Most definitely affirmative ..
Yes. I have three more sons, my oldest daughter has started college, we live closer to our parents, and I have FR.
Better off until, when is it supposed to happen? Noon today? Then welcome to the People’s State of America.
Ready for government forced health care to go along with the federal government’s forced retirement program?
We all shall be equal at last! Equally poor.
I am, but these types of questions are irrelevant in my opinion and a tremendous sign of what’s wrong with American perceptions of government.
I most certainly shouldn’t be worse off because of the actions of the President, but it’s not his job, no matter who he is, to ensure my prosperity, either.
Yes, most of those bills paid off, I have my own home, a pickup I can depend on... ask me again in a couple months though...
“From what I’m told, work wasn’t necessary before Bush took office, and now from what I’m told, starting today it isn’t anymore, either.”
Hah! Nobody told me that. I’ve had to work quite hard the last 8 years to improve my situation. In spite of 9/11, in spite of the spending like drunken sailors in D.C., in spite of the economic meltdown over the last few months, I’ve still managed to be better off.
Yes, I am, no question. I attribute that to God and His goodness, but I’m sure He imparted some wisdom to those who need it.
I just have a hard time figuring out who they are...
Absolutely!
Ask me again after the Zero’s 4 years!
Praying not 8 years!!
We were right up until the Dems brought down the economy.
yes........
well none of my family or loved ones have been killed by terrorists..and I’m still relatively free...yes!
We will never be equally poor with the people who've refused to learn or do anything of value and have spent their entire lives existing on handouts from either government or charity.
Yes.
