This began in earnest in 1971. Do you know the significance of that year? Probably not. Bush II was a disaster...on that we agree. But Obama has doubled down on everything Bush did, including cronyism and Constitutional rights abuses. Examples please. And where's your response to my prior post which was in response to your post where you spent a shitload of money for your education. I am still curious as to how you got the banks to give you all that money for school. As far as the mortgage and derivatives mess, yes it occurred under Bush, but then Obama gave everyone a free pass and made the fines just a cost of doing business. Now the same criminals who created the mess are still in power and are creating an even bigger mess, which will no doubt explode into something worse than what just occurred 4 years ago. Why? Because Obama has refused to fix the issues. Instead, he's swept it all under the rug. CEOs of all the major banks have been replaced during the past 4 years...........the perps of the recession are gone. And we hear from the banks and your fellow Rs who represent them that Obama has made life miserable for them. So I don't your trust take on the situation. This is Obama's economy now. He has succumbed to all the same game playing that has been going on for years before him. He's no better than the worst of them. Sorry you feel that way. You voted for Romney so I hardly consider you a good judge of character but it is what it is. Oh and that $60B per year tax increase that Obama fought so hard for? We're only two weeks into the new year and he's already spent it. Where are the spending cuts? They are non-existent. We'll keep running $1.2 trillion deficits as far as the eye can see because you, the Dems, and Obama believe that prosperity can be created by printing money and deficit spending to your hearts content. You all are stealing from our children's future. I find that repugnant, reprehensible, and flat out immoral, not to mention absolutely guaranteed to end in disaster. Do some research.........there were already spending cuts put in place from his last negotiations with Boehner.
