Think Bush was bad? Obama’s even worse
G.W Bush’s government borrowed and spent more money than ALL of the Presidents that came before him — put together!
Barack Obama’s government, then borrowed and spent twice as much as ALL the previous presidents including Mr. Bush! (Adding $12 trillion of debt to Mr. Bush’s $6 trillion)
Despite his rhetoric, Mr. Obama’s stimulus program, has only benefited the uber-wealthy. Witness Wall Street soaring 20 percent every year for the last five years; while his core supporters’ (blacks, Latinos, women, and young people) real wages have fallen more than 10 percent in the same period. It certainly isn’t because he hasn’t spent enough!
Under his policies, banks are actually bigger than ever; the major media is more consolidated than ever; healthcare and insurance costs have soared, college tuition has skyrocketed, food, shelter and gasoline are up 10 percent, more people are in poverty and on welfare, large cities are declaring bankruptcy, and the Government is spying on its own citizens in an alarming manner.
To criticize Congress for opposing more of his programs does not make sense. The results of six years have proven him to be an ineffective leader, doing more damage to the working middle class than any of his predecessors. Why does Big Media criticize those in Congress for obstructing his policies (ie: Obamacare)?
Does Big Media fail to recognize that enacting more of his failed policies will only continue to pull the working class deeper into poverty? His record on lifting people out of poverty is non-existent.
Despite all of Obama’s words and speeches, the only segment benefiting from his terms in office are billionaires and the ruling class.
