Exactly, and what’s he been doing the last 4?

He’s been doing everything he can to screw us over. What do young people care about?

1, gas prices. If it costs us more to get to and from work, then high gas prices are killing us.

2, rent/housing costs. If we’re paying to rent and Obama keeps spending, our rents get raised.

3, groceries. In case you’ve not noticed, inflation has been shooting up, and that means that again, the money that we do take home we get less of it.

4, taxes. It would be nice to keep more of what we make in a year, but with the withholding as high as it is, we have to wait a year to get some of that money back. Longer if we live in a state like California that issues us IOUs. Heh, I can’t pay my bills with an IOU, why the **** can they?!

5, jobs. Why do you think that workforce participation is so low. The jobs that are out there are being fought for fiercely and the pay is less than it used to be, and the pay goes less far than it used to do. Obama is making it economically advantageous to hunker down, and not drive or go anywhere so we can save what we do have.

That has a ripple effect on all of us.

6, housing. Gee, that bubble, didn’t really hurt us, but if we don’t have jobs, how are we going to get a house so we can have a place to live? How are we going to be able to raise a family and afford to pay for them?

Obama is making it so that the system rewards people for giving up, staying home, going on welfare going on whatever goodies you get so that someone else covers all your bills. I see it everyday. I get people wanting to sell me foodstamps to buy smokes. I don’t get foodstamps. This really pisses me off, because the foodstamps that I am paying for through my taxes are not going to the truly needed, but are being wasted.

I can’t pay my bills with godforsaken food stamps.

“3, groceries. In case you’ve not noticed, inflation has been shooting up, and that means that again, the money that we do take home we get less of it.”

You are clearly wrong here. Government figures show that there is very low inflation.
