When Republican Bush bailed out AIG, the insurer to wall street, he tied Obama's hands on bailing out those wall street crooks. I would not have lost one second of sleep if Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and the rest of the investment banks went bankrupt. The vast majority of the money in them are crooked super rich money. They won't miss it one bit. But by Republican Bush bailing out AIG, he tied Obama's hands before even he can take his oath of the presidency. The world will be a better place without these greedy a$$holes. But do you see anyone taking what a total FUBAR of an economy Republican Bush handed to Obama? Of course not. Because it is not in the interest of the BS and garbage of the Republican talking points. And why not, cause they have people like you hooked with their lies, deceit, racist and bigoted bullshit. The fact is that what Obama did to get us out of that economic abyss is nothing short of a miracle. If you want to see the republican plan take a look at the government austerity in europe, with some countries (Greece, Italy, Spain, Portugal, etc) experiencing a 1930s depression (people having lost everything, no money for food, giving their children away unable to care for them, suicides, people living in cars, unemployment 30%-50%, GDP implodes 10,15,20,25%...etc...). It is time for you to wake up to the lies, deceit, destruction and treason that is the Republican party and their Propaganda channel.

What is interesting is that you cannot see Romney is a know nothing. Or that you are oblivious to how well people in highly taxed countries like Denmark live. go to Denmark where the taxes are sky high and see how well everyone lives. Or a bunch of other countries up there with sky high tax rates. How do you explain that? Very few rich or poor and a robust middle class. Free eduction for everyone and universal health care. The thesis that you utterly fail to see is that high taxes ensure a strong society and a strong middle class. Through income redistributiion. And a strong middle class is the best for everyone. The Walmart family having more wealth than the bottom 40% of the people is shameful!!! Being 65th in income inequality is shameful. And electing self serving plutocrats is shameful. But you don't seem able to see any of that!? <<But we don't live in a country where people believe it is theft to steal from our kids and grand kids. Instead, you all think that it's the miracle of modern economics that makes theft ok. It's not only a failure of intellect, but it's also a moral failure, and you all are guilty of it. Stop stealing from my children and their children. I am willing to sacrifice to ensure a better future for our kids. You should be too.>.
