you might have missed my point.

I'm not blaming this administration in particular (it is as corrupt as any IMO and even moreso).

I point my finger towards both Democrats and what used to be the GOP that I no longer support.

I'm the guy everybody hates (Tea Party) and I understand that. Even Republicans hate me now. But your statistics are flat out wrong. It is what you've been told though. But simple math would tell you that it isn't real.

Do you know what CPI (Consumer Price Index) is? It is what the government (and the Fed) uses to measure and report inflation rates and of course it seems low but guess what, they don't include food or energy and have you seen the cost of those lately. Yeah stop lying to me government!

Also I kind of supported the OWS movement (at first) because I was in agreement that Wall Street was corrupt (and in bed with government) but they shit all over the place and just seemed like of a bunch of aholes that felt entitled. I would have demonstrated with them but I had to work and at the time was working on Wall St and so I know. Get your shit together OWS people.

Your numbers are wrong Peter and just because you found some reports that cater to what you want to believe won't convince me. Not even close.

Also, the reason that the rich keep getting richer while everybody else is either stagnant or slipping you just have to look at what Wall Street and the government have been up to (both partys) The Feds horrible policy of printing fake money hand over fist for what, six seven years now to the tune of 85 billion/mo all of which goes directly to the bankers that caused the whole mess to begin with, so they can trade again. In other words they socialized losses but privatized gains. And we paid for it.

That is complete bullshit and you should be able to see it. But you don't. The market sure does look healthy though doesn't it? Are you starting to see why? I'm guessing nope.

But what happens to the average Joe that doesn't have money in the market or people like my parents that are on fixed incomes or people that save like me? Do you even understand what kind of damage a policy of funny money does to that?

Our economy certainly hasn't improved (though they will try to tell you different and you'll buy it). It seems like it sure, but it is all smoke and mirrors and this administration seems hell bent on control (tyrants).

There is a reason congress has gridlocked Washington and that was by design (our forefathers wrote it into the playbook thank God). But you probably don't understand that either. Obama can't just make shit up and EO everything and he doesn't give a damn, he'll just ram it down our throats if he can (Pelosi.."we have to pass the bill to see what is in it" ...wow really?)

Our country is being run by a bunch of high schoolers and I'm fed up, but hey if you really believe the bullshit you've been spoonfed...well more power to you.

You may think that there won't be a debt to pay in the end but all you have to do is look at a once grand city like Detroit to know that the left always stacks their numbers until the house of cards falls.

Sadly, I fear, the GOP has fallen into this trap too.
