It's The Economy, Stupid: No, The Real One!
Self | 8/3/14 | Me

Inflation, inflation, inflation! Obama and his merry band of propagandists can keep trying to smear lipstick on this historically, pathetic economy but the endless, reckless pumping by the Fed has resulted in a worthless dollar and mass inflation across the board. $6 for a pound of ground beef? A gallon of milk for $3.50! $4 gas for almost four years now? Oh yes, all is most definitely well! If the truth be known, the cost of owning and operating a business has nearly doubled since 2008. Energy costs are passed on to consumers, as is the fallout from a glut of new federal regulations and taxes; most notably Obamacare. It’s cyclical and it’s inescapable. That’s right, Nancy Pelosi; the wheels on the bus go round and round! So sad. Anytime 12 million Americans leave the workforce in six short years and welfare payrolls practically double to over 50 million, it’s a rather serious indicator of a floundering and inept economic policy. Well, just not to those who run our country. They can bounce checks and pick our pockets in the name of executive privilege. It’s good to be the king!

By nature, economic recoveries typically enjoy substantial rebounds in production and new hires due to the depths of the previous recession. Case in point is the near 10% GDP Reagan’s recovery topped out at after the economic dynamo known as Jimmy Carter. Barack Obama? He hit 4%....once! How is that possible, you ask? One chose to stimulate the economy, the other demanded to siphon it. Remember in 2003 when Barry chided then President Bush for only adding a meager 400,000 jobs per month? Apparently the left doesn’t for the media universally celebrates Mr. Hussein for adding half that total just a decade later! Household wealth is at the lowest level in 25 years, black home and business ownership are at record lows, over half the nation lives paycheck to paycheck, almost 40% of all Americans are out of the workforce, and Obama has racked up a staggering 7.5 trillion in debt all by his lonesome! Apparently progress has a middle name…progressivism! And no, they do not spank their own.

But do not threat, my fellow Americans, for the economy is strong! America is moving forward! “Hope” is about to “change” so much that the stock market is ready to burst like an imaginary piñata built with recycled monopoly money and Chinese IOU’s. In fact, the State of the Union is so, irrefutably good the federal government is selflessly financing Hamas, transporting illegals across our border and giving them free housing, welfare, and health care at our expense, spending hundreds of millions with our tax dollars to promote the socialist disaster known as Obamacare, ignoring the fact real unemployment – not to be confused by the “common core” figure of 6.2% proudly touted by the media – is nearing 20%, and reclassifying the decay of small town and corporate America from intrusive government as shining success stories of wealth redistribution and economic justice! Who cares if your neighbors lost their home, the plant went bankrupt or the local theater closed? Forward! Yes, never ever, ever fear, my friends…for Obama is going to tirelessly campaign all the across this great nation before midterms, saturate television and radio airwaves with sensational propaganda – delusions of grandeur, celebrity concerts and dire warnings of Right Wing hate – to distract and conquer America in order to convince voters of the one thing he has been unable to do in six long years: his job! May God forgive the fools who gave him one.

If you are not going to contribute anything besides the exact same post on every thread on FR, why don’t you go do it on a different forum such as DU or HuffPo? Even pMSNBC!

CWII Spark — Embracing policies that steal the blood, sweat, and tears of the people is generally not a good way to keep the people content.

Health insurance premiums doubling from 2011 policy increase through 2013 rate. That’s two years to cough up double money. Money is worth less in both senses of the expression.
