Folks went into debt slavery courtesy of the housing/credit bubbles, plus skyrocketing costs of education and healthcare while wages fell further behind and the wealth disparity in this country ballooned to record levels never seen anywhere in the world in modern times. Recent stats show CEO pay is 450 times the average worker here while in Germany and France it is barely above 10. This first took off with Reagan's trickle down economics and went viral the years the GOP controlled everything post 9/11.. Blame Obama for continuing too many of the Bush policies including the bloated military industrial complex rather than being some socialist marxist wealth resdistributor your friends portray him as. In the end maybe it was the right thing to do and avert depression given where interest rates are and Obama actually creating more jobs per month than Bush in the private sector in non recession times (take out 2008-09) even with deleveraging, housing headwind and shrinking the public payroll.. Funny how most haven't a clue..
