you nailed it galt-jw;

Young people who've been indoctrinated in public schools and in the universities are so incredibly ignorant. They have no idea what our country was like just 40 years ago. We had far less unemployment. Finding jobs that would support families was easy relative to today. We didn't need two incomes to support a family back then. Housing was very affordable given the paychecks people were making as compared to today. The minimum wage in 1965 was higher than what it is today after adjusting for inflation. Throughout our nation's history we've always had a situation where the average person enjoyed a much higher standard of living than the average person in just about any other nation, including the european nations. Today that is changing. We are becoming like them. Our people are becoming wage slaves on a treadmill where the goal posts keep changing, where government oppresses us and we ask for more oppression every time we vote for either a republican or a democrat. The whole cause for these negative economic trends is that government has attacked industry after industry after industry ever since 1970. The republicans and the democrats are equally to blame. The only president since JFK who reversed the trend was Ronald Reagan. LBJ, Nixon, (Ford's presidency was so brief), Carter and Bush 1 were all very bad for the economy. They did these bad things to please the liberals. If they didn't do these things, then they'd have been attacked like Reagan was. Bush 2 is following his father's footsteps and bashing the americans to please the liberals. Bill Clinton was a liar, a traitor and a crook. But he did not have the same propensity to destroy the economy like the others. Clinton would only destroy an american industry (like he did with the Colorado coal mine) if he could make money at it, he didn't do it out of ideology like the others. The percentage of the GDP that is federal government actually shrank under Clinton. Clinton did not impose a heavy dose of regulatory burden and taxes on the economy like Bush 1, Carter or Nixon did. The economy in fact did prosper under Clinton. The unemployment rate under Clinton almost made it down to what was normal prior to 1970. Forty years ago our unemployment rate was 2.2%. A high school graduate could find a job that would support a family easily. Today that is a pipe dream. And the young people victimized by this situation have been indoctrinated to believe that the americans who lived in 1960 were evil because they lived in 1960 america. If Clinton hadn't been a scoundrel the liberals would've attacked him and then he'd have had to change or be kicked out of office.

Our young people have been mesmerized by the political correctness indoctrination which is communist in nature and our nation is being killed over it.
