And how many of these 75 economic indicators would be front page news if the sitting President had a (R) behind his name?

Remember the Congressional Black Caucus has already said, in public before media microphones, that if the Emperor wasn't black like them they would be out protesting his job performance.

Enough said!

-——#59 The six heirs of Wal-Mart founder Sam Walton have a net worth that is roughly equal to the bottom 30 percent of all Americans combined.-——

Too crazy to believe? Perhaps........ but it should be taken with pride.

The fact is an indication of success, fantastic success. In America great wealth can be created from extremely un Uriah Heap like humble beginnings. Far off, in the boondocks backwater of Benton Arkansas, it is reality. It is so far from the canyons of Wall Street or the urban sewers of Philadelphia or Chicago or San Francisco that most there don’t even know it exists.

The fact is crazy only in the sense of anomaly, of unlikely, of being quintessentially American

It is literally cheaper to give a Barack Obama...or any other lib who thinks they were born to govern......each personally 1 billion dollars in their checking account...and tell them to go get lost...rather than to deal with their mess they make in DC.

Someday we’ll all wake up to this fact.

The homeless number is BS and an artificial contrivance. There are not a million children on the streets or in homeless shelters.
Based on current definitions, a woman who loses her apartment for non-payment of rent who moves in with her parents is not homeless - but her seven year old, who now lives with Mom and his grandparents is “homeless”, because Mom does not have her own home anymore.

The mainstream media continues to tell us what a “great job” the Obama administration is doing.The media lives off failure and misery it’s the only thing that keeps them in business.

According to one recent survey, 55 percent of all Americans have received money from a safety net program run by the federal government at some point in their lives.

Does this include unemployment insurance, something that my employers have paid into in the roughly 28 years I've been working full time, and another 7 years of part time work. I was on unemployment for nearly 2 months trying to find a job, and I took the first one I could find, with a nearly 40% pay cut.

But I just celebrated my 7th anniversary with my current employer (that's a very long time for someone IT). And in those 7 years I've made up roughly 50% of the pay cut, but more importantly, I've found an employer that really values its employees, and while the pay isn't as high as most people would like, the company provided benefits and working great people and working environment more than make up for any deficiencies in pay.

#5 For the first time ever, more than a million public school students in the United States are homeless.

I found out that 'homeless' in this context has a ridiculous definition, or can have. For example, we have a bunch of grandkids staying with us because their mother is ill. Since they are not residing at their address of record, and no court order or anything has come through to change that address, they are considered "homeless" by the school district. No reasonable person would consider them homeless when they are sitting here right now, reasonably warm, clean, well fed (definitely), and most of them doing homework or reading. But they probably went into these very statistics as four homeless children.
