Not better ... Not worse....
Kind of in a holding pattern. I see darkness on the horizon though.
Hell No! Obama was just getting started.
Financially.....big time. sad the the country has lost its morals.....big time.
Actually yes. But it’s got nothing to do with Obie, I picked well when I landed at this job in ‘02 and things are riding out very nicely.
Nope
One thing you can say about Carter, you never heard
"it's Ford's fault"
At one time I didn’t think it possible to out do Carter as the worst President in recent memory. But, Obama has removed all doubt. It must be a relief to Pres. Carter to be supplanted from such a notorious position, in his lifetime no less.
It’s recession when your neighbor loses his job.
It’s a depression when you lose your job.
And it’s a recovery when Obama loses his.
(Borrowed from Reagan campaign slogan regarding Carter.)
I keep asking my liberal friends (who are all Obama true believers) just what has Obama done during his term that has benefitted them in some way? How much better is their life under his administration than it was before? All I get is how it’s going to take a lot of time for Obama to fix all the bad things Bush did during his two terms — that I and others haven’t given Obama enough time. A few might mention “health care reform,” but if you press further, you find out they really don’t know anything about it. Most just can’t give a straight answer. Probably because they know I know the answer and they don’t want to admit they were wrong.
“Are You Better Off Now Than You Were Two Years Ago?”
LOL. I was better off this morning before I went to town than I am now. Every time I buy gas and/or food I become poorer.
Four more years of this idiot and the ‘and/or’ might become an option.
I was better off in 1980 than I was two years ago and I was better off two years ago than I am now. This is the worst off I’ve ever been in all my many years.
Less costs more, and we have less, so there is definitely a downward spiral going on with the economy. Still, I feel lucky, because there are hundreds of thousands more people who have gone from something to nothing.
How much more can Islamic terrorism win once it has made us trade our liberty for false security? Welcome to the police state. Is there a way out of it?
I looked at the misery index yesterday. It’s trending up. At the present rate, we’ll hit Carter-era levels in a month or two. (Some argue we’re already there, accounting for changes in the measurement of inflation since Carter.)
We are trending sharply into socialism. We have betrayed Israel and God is not pleased. Obama has stopped much of our drilling, for oil, and he gave monies to South America to drill off shore there, and to build a new refinery; yet we can not do that here. h
We are very like Russia was after their revolution. THIS IS BAD! Read "Dr Zhivago," or at least watch the movie.
Our government is suing Arizona. Immigration is wide open. We can not absorb so many so fast. Smart meters are so the government can decide how much power we can have and they will cut us off with that amount despite the face it may be inadequate. Obama told us already we do not get to have 74 degrees in the summer or 65 degrees in the winter.
America is sitting passively and our nation is coming apart before our eyes. True.
I fear collapse and the tyranny and totalitarianism of the One World Government. Nearly 48% of the people, are on welfare. When it increases a bit they will have the majority, and they will vote for all things socialist. or communist.
God help us in this time and day, in Jesus name, amen
I am much worse off financially. Increased cost of living (power, gas, heating fuel, home insurance, food, etc.) has pushed my bills for the basics up to match my paycheck. The decline of a very old car and repairs took out the savings. I have a relatively secure job for another 3 1/2 years, but pay has been frozen for last three years and will continue, and perhaps decrease over the next several years. I am in public service in a small rural county and get paid very little. (Less than I was paid in the private sector in the 1980s.)
Local government has laid off 40 some employees over the past three years and will be laying off at least another 35 this next fiscal year. At least I have a job.
yes, despite the best efforts of congress, the president, and local officials
Yes I am, but that’s not the pertinent question.
Is the country better off than it was 2 years ago?
I never saw the sense in basing your vote on such a myopic worldview. I am far, far better off than I was 2 years ago, but I don’t vote with my wallet. What benefits the country is not always best for my bank account.
Vote the commies out!!!!
In only one way....I own more guns and ammo.
Was I better off 2 years agon than I was 6 years ago?
Was I better off 10 years ago than I was six years ago?
