A new one? We’re not finished with the old one yet.
A “new” one?
I always wondered what it was like for my grandparents living through The Great Depression. After 3 years of Obama, I think that I have some idea.
Never has been a time before with below replacement demography.
We’ve been in a recession since 2008. Geez look at the unemployment figures.
If the 52% cut their spending to the bone, Hussein Zer0 would be blown away this Fall.
The minute it looked like the socialist Obama might win.. the economy tanked.
And it wont start getting better until it looks like he is going to be thrown out.
No you don't but you likely will.
Your children go on the hobo yet, probably not. My father was 12 when he hit the hobo trail.
When I was born in 1938 my father was working, cutting cross ties for the railroad, in river bottom where work began on site at sunup and ended at sundown, six mile walk both ways, the pay was 50 cents a day.
I hope and pray that we will not see those days again, but if we continue to deny our roots, then I guess the ending that was written 6000 years or so ago will turn out to be true after all.
Bill, if you ain’t got money you can’t spend it. Seems to be the case in this depression at least as far as I can see.
You can pump all the money you want into the system, Banks, but if the people have no jobs they can’t spend what they don’t have.
Thanks blam.
Yeah....I think they are afraid of the word “depression.”
As for Obama being toast - don't bet on it, especially if the GOP nominates one of the few people who could turn off enough conservative voters to give Obama a second term.
I was born in 1943 and my mother told me (dad wouldn't talk about it) how my dad did the same as your father except he was plowing behind a one horse plow from sun-up to sun-down.
My grandmother (mothers mother) would give a free breakfast to who-ever chopped her cooking wood for the day each morning.
She had to change that because they kept coming earlier and earlier to beat the next guy there for the meal and were waking everyone chopping wood at 3:00AM.
My dad did tell me how they had to hide the plow down the water well when the bank came to repossess it.
Rubio as VP would draw most conservatives and most Hispanics to vote for the GOP.
Obama is toast!
Ok, so who failed to tell me we’d come out of the recession?
That would be the recession within the depression within the emerging stagflation.

I can't even begin to imagine this..
