hello america!!! as you were forewarned by the repubs, obamacare is not for everyone, neither is it as 'affordable' as obama & company would like you to believe...something else you don't want to know is: too many of you are going to end up stuck in the middle, that is; when you lose your present healthcare coverage you're going to find that you make/made too much to qualify for obamacare &, you're not making enough to afford new fed gov't acceptable coverage---but fear not. the fed gov't (IRS) will find you & you'll be fined/taxed for not having that coverage. by the way, just so you'll know, this will fall on the middle class alone because, the rich can afford their own coverage & the poor will qualify for obamacare. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-11-29/unaffordable-cost-seen-for-some-under-affordable-care-act.html
many company's are going to drop offering their employees healthcare coverage &, on top of that, they're going to cut back their workers hours, make them part timer's & be able to avoid the obamacare penalty. this will also negatively affect hiring.
so tell me, who actually benefits from obamacare the most? the poor can already get medical benefits through public welfare; the rich can afford their own; the middle class is going to be kicked in the proverbial ass once again---
i have to take my hat off to obama. he sucked you into giving him 4 more years. you have to admire a person that, through his obamacare, protects the rich & puts the burden squarely on the middle class & those on the fringe.

HOW MANY TIMES CAN YOU GET THE SAME THING WRONG???
hello america!!! call me a hater; call me an uncle tom; call me an idiot---i really don't care what you call me because the facts & the numbers back me up so, i can only wonder what that makes you &, i really don't care about that either. so, at the risk of pissing you off, let me get to it..........
if we had more people working, the fed gov't would collect more revenue---more revenue means that they would not have to borrow more money to pay their bills or for the services they now provide. they also would be able to pay down our national debt. so, in reality, jobs & our national debt go hand-in-hand. that said, obama is concentrating on raising the tax rates on those making $250,000 per year &, apparently you believe that's how we'll get out of this mess because you gave him a second term. how very wrong you are & here's why...........
obama just doesn't run the gov't like you run your home &, you can argue all you want but, if you lose your job, you cut back on your expenditures. sure, you might borrow a little here & there to make ends meet but, sooner or later, you know you'll have to stop the borrowing because, if you don't, the next job you get will be strictly to pay off the bills. you cut here, you cut there i.e; no more eating out, no more movie rentals, cut your cable bill back to basic, get rid of the car---you do what you have to while trying to make it to better days......
obama doesn't think like that. he continues to spend our money while refusing to make any cuts in spending. let's say he gets to raise the tax rates on the 1%'ers---that pays for the gov't to run for 8 lousy days. that's the easy part...now, we're faced with raising our national debt ceiling once again---guess we raise the gasoline tax to help out there. &, before you get your hopes up, that 'fiscal cliff' you keep hearing about is 31 days away---guess we can institute a mileage tax on car drivers to help pay for that.
our problem isn't in raising tax rates, our problem is spending combined with a lack of JOBS....
the new jobless claims number came out & it is 393,000. yeah, i know, we turned the corner. that's like the blind man telling the other man with no eyes at to 'look out'...check these jobless claims numbers out...
nov 1st, 363,000
nov 8th, 355,000---revised up to 361,000
nov 14th, 439,00---revised up to 451,000
nov 21st, 410,000---revised up to 416,000 &, there's today's
nov 29th, 393,000---which will be revised up next week &, please remember these figures are 1 week behind.......
anyway, from nov 8th-nov 29th we had 1,621,000 new jobless claims. the numbers released on dec 6th will complete the month of nov &, we'll be very close to two million new claims for the month of nov. if those people were working, the fed gov't would be receiving revenue from them in the form of taxes. local merchants would be receiving more business from them & paying their own fed taxes---loss of jobs affects us all across the board.
obama should be concentrating on putting america back to work instead of raising the tax rates on the 1%'ers that will end up filtering down to us.
still think i'm an idiot???

NOT A MANDATE!!!
hello america!!! while obama & company are quick to say america voted for the tax rate increase on those making $200,000 per year, i have to agree however, quit a few of them voted against it. obama & the dem senate retained their majority as did the rep controlled house...it was not the clear cut 'mandate' the dems are saying it was & does not grant them license to 'bully' america or the repubs into doing things their way or else. hell, here's the fact; out of 125,657,870 total votes cast &, you win by 4,516,190, you are being told that the country wants you to work together.

EYGPT'S A PROBLEM!!!
hello america!!! obama welcome egyptian morsi to office with welcome arms but, he may have made a big mistake. if the demonstrations continue in egypt, obama may be forced to completely backtrack on all things middle east. his strong active support is coming back to bite him &, he has only himself to blame for it.
this was 17 days ago...http://www.foxnews.com/world/2012/11/23/opponents-egypt-islamic-president-clash-with-backers-over-new-powers/
&, look at it now...http://news.yahoo.com/egypt-mass-protests-challenge-islamist-president-175352891.html
how many lives will be lost before obama jumps on the wagon either calling for stability or, calling for the other throw of president morsi? on the other hand, this is but another 'speedbump'
after all this time, obama just doesn't understand these middle east people &, for whatever reason, he ignores the fact that these country's have never been ruled by a democracy & probably never will. obamas middle east foreign policy is seriously flawed &, he doesn't know how to fix it.

SUCKED IN AGAIN!!!
hello america!!! well, it's too late to re-vote but, as you read the links below, the questions should be: 1, why are we just now hearing about these numbers? & 2, how in the hell is raising the taxes on just the rich going to help us?
the answer to #1 is; nobody seemed to have put all the numbers together or, if they did, they flat out lied to us. obama had to know because all of these numbers had to cross his desk so he'd know just how much money we need to pay our bills.
http://www.newsmax.com/newswidget/government-debt-burden-treasury/2012/11/27/id/465500?promo_code=F470-1&utm_source=Fox_Politics&utm_medium=nmwidget&utm_campaign=widgetphase2
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887323353204578127374039087636.html?KEYWORDS=86+trillion+total+debt
we all know about the $16 trillion number &, apparently, our fed gov't decided that that is all we should know about. there is no way in hell that you or anybody like you can convince me that our treasury dep't didn't know the real amount of debt, nor can you convince me that they kept that info from obama.
the answer to #2 is: it doesn't. we just won't generate enough revenue if we only raise the tax rates on those making $200,000 or more. while it may seem to be a talking point that obama wants to make good on, charging the rich more just to help the middle class is not only wrong, it won't work. in truth, i believe it will have the opposite effect on america that obama & company refuse to accept...&, that is; it will hurt our job growth because it would effect everybody & every business making about $547.94 per day or, those making about $3,846.15 per week. that's a lot of small business's that are going to feel that pain & because of it, they will hire less. when you have to pay more, you're forced to do less.

WHAT A SURPRISE!!!
hello america!!! we knew what the muslim brotherhood was all about before they even visited the whitehouse this year. they said they would not have a horse in the presidential race & yet, their leader won. how is a surprise that will not change their ways? oh, i know. hilary clinton went over there & had a very successful conversation with somebody &, obama had conversations with somebody & both were glowing in their success---no matter how short-lived it turned out to be. i just can't understand why the following is a surprise...http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/11/23/egypt-president-usa-idUSL1E8MN4DI20121123
it seems that we will be forced to accept whatever obama & company tell us until the crap hits the fan & then, they go into 'super-spin' mode.....http://www.nytimes.com/2012/09/29/world/middleeast/white-house-move-to-give-egypt-450-million-in-aid-meets-resistance.html
it's amazing how quickly things change...by the way, here's the article about the visit to the whitehouse.........http://www.politico.com/politico44/2012/04/muslim-brotherhood-delegation-meets-with-white-house-119647.html

IT'S CALLED BLACK!!!
hello america!!! here we go again; our 'so-called' black leaders are wishing for something that just isn't a part of reality...http://news.yahoo.com/black-voters-look-leverage-loyalty-081601828--election.html however, before i get into it, please allow me to ask these people, just how many times has obama openly spoke about 'black america'? for four years, we've all heard obama refer to latino's, middle-class &, the one percenter's. i just can't recall him talking about black america exclusively. in truth, he seems to have gone out of his way not to use any specific term that refers directly to blacks. please prove me wrong.
while these 'so-called' leaders may 'demand' a seat at the table, at best, it would only be a token seat. perhaps they fail to remember how obama 'dressed' them down at the black caucus this past september in a way he would not talk to white america &, they applauded him for saying the following...
"I expect all of you to march with me, and press on," Obama said. "... Stop complaining, stop grumbling, stop crying. We are going to press on. We've got work to do."
& just so you can't say i make this stuff up, here's obamas speech &, unless i'm blind & deaf, he mentioned black owned businesses & african americans once each...http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2011/09/25/president-obama-congressional-black-caucus-foundation-annual-dinner-march-me-and-pre
i have a big problem with being called an african american. yes, i'm black & perhaps my heritage can be traced back to africa but hell, i was born right here in the good ole USA & that makes me a 'black american'. golfer ernie els was born in africa & if he were to be granted american citizenship, he would be an african american. hopefully, you understand me.
while jobs should be the number one priority, infrastructure jobs usually go to those that are best trained to perform them. &, even here i have a big problem with obama & these leaders...how in the hell can those blacks & latino's get those jobs without that all-important valid id card you fought so hard to keep them from having? it's really quite simple (which is why you all missed it), no id---no job.
you talk about jobs but not cleaning up the black communities. you talk about education but not cleaning up the black communities. it's amazing that nobody wants to talk about the drugs, the gangs, the violence & crimes, the babies having babies at 13, 14, 15 years old that plague our communities. what's even more then amazing is: you offer no plans to help our communities. you can organize massive marches but you can't organize them where they are really needed.
here it is, four years later &, looking back at them, i can't see where obama has made a difference in the black community. unemployment is too high; the education level is too low; hope has turned to living on foodstamps, etc....
&, obama has four more years---to do what?

451,000, then 410,000---WHAT'S NEXT???
hello america!!! last weeks jobless claims has been revised from 439,000 to 451,000. this weeks new jobless claims is 410,000. if you remember, the gov't & others blamed the high numbers on superstorm sandy. while one might believe that business's could not open or get their employees in, the flip side of that is all the extra work the storm created...
well, i have some concerns---this is the retailers busiest time of the year with thanksgiving tomorrow & christmas right around the corner. so, hiring should have been up. the mail-order & internet business's even pick up. hell, fedex, ups & the post office hire extra employees for these times. everybody's geared up for black friday. so, there's got to be more to our high jobless claims then superstorm sandy...
let's see::::40 states & territories had an increase in claims while 13 had a decrease ; 3.34 million people (as of nov 10th) are collecting unemployment benefits; 2.19 million people (as of nov 3rd) are collecting emergency or extended benefits.
this is the labor dep't link...http://www.dol.gov/opa/media/press/eta/ui/current.htm#.UKzgGOTBGYU
you don't have to be a calculus major to know we have serious jobs problems &, regardless of who's doing the math, the numbers are horrible. for the past 4 years, we've all heard the rhetoric coming from obama & company that they are the only ones with the 'vision' to put america back to work. &, we all know that that 'vision' was applied to our problems &, here it is, 4 years later & we're told it takes more time...so , i guess we have to wait & see that which we already know---obama has no idea how to put us back to work but, he sounds so convincing & sincere when he says he does.........

4 MORE YEARS IS A LONG TIME!!!
hello america!!! here's your jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/ layoffs & closings continue despite what obama & company tell you. if you went to the link, you'll know that november has not been kind to the jobs market.
while some have lost their job & can't find a suitable replacement, i happen to know of a young man that is working two jobs to make ends meet:::fork lifter by day & security by night. that tells me all i need to know about our moving 'forward'. good paying jobs are hard to come by &, keeping your present job is up in the air. there is nobody in the obama admin that seems to know what to do to get our economy growing at the rate we need it to grow at. we've had four years of why our unemployment numbers are so high & no action to reverse the course.
& america, you voted for four more years of this!!! he's already said he wants more teachers, firemen &, policemen; infrastructure jobs; job training programs; &, 'green' investments. how does that move our economy forward? it did not work the first time &, it will not work now.
regardless of who you voted for, one thing remains extremely clear: when we need a true leader the most, he disappears. his overseas visit could have waited because the 'fiscal cliff' & 'jobs' should be his number one priority.

947 COMING SOON!!!
hello america!!! while some of you may think you're 'safe' with your employment & healthcare coverage, i'm here to tell you that we are now seeing is only the beginning of our 'new normal' &, here is yet another company's reaction to obamacare...http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/11/16/medical-supply-giant-stryker-corp-makes-pre-emptive-strike-against-pending/
while obama & company were so quick to tell you that obamacare is the greatest thing since sunshine, many of you just accepted it &, you rejected the repubs arguments against it. regardless of which side you're on, the director of the CBO (douglas elmendorf) testified before congress (2011) & said that obamacare would cause 800,000 not to be working---some because of loss of jobs & others for walking away from working & getting obamacare. i'm here to tell you that 800,000 number will be a lot higher before all is said & done.
company's electing to 'stay the course' may continue to offer you healthcare & uncut hours in 2013 but, come 2014, you're going to be on your own...we still have a ton of regulations that have been issued but not yet evaluated so, their impact on business's & jobs is unknown. besides, who in the hell has the time to sort through all of them?
because i'm such a nice guy, i'm going to put the gov'ts own regulations posting website here...http://www.regulations.gov/#%21home;tab=search what should have caught your eye was the 'last 90 days' where 6,051 regulations were issued &, the 'next 90 days' where 947 new regulations will be issued. as a business owner, you have to balance profit against acceptable losses &, when the gov't starts taking more, you have to react to keep your books balanced. unfortunately, that requires cut hours, layoffs, raising prices or, closing your doors for good.
by the way, how many of those regulations did you actually read?
while obama & company were so quick to tell you that obamacare is the greatest thing since sunshine, many of you just accepted it &, you rejected the repubs arguments against it. regardless of which side you're on, the director of the CBO (douglas elmendorf) testified before congress (2011) & said that obamacare would cause 800,000 not to be working---some because of loss of jobs & others for walking away from working & getting obamacare. i'm here to tell you that 800,000 number will be a lot higher before all is said & done.
company's electing to 'stay the course' may continue to offer you healthcare & uncut hours in 2013 but, come 2014, you're going to be on your own...we still have a ton of regulations that have been issued but not yet evaluated so, their impact on business's & jobs is unknown. besides, who in the hell has the time to sort through all of them?

YOU WANTED IT, YOU GOT IT, NOW TRY LIVING WITH IT!!!
hello america!!! it's amazing that what obama & company told you about obamacare is exactly the opposite of reality but, hey, who am i to say i told you so. when the repubs said obamacare would stifle job growth, you laughed. when they told you, you wouldn't be able to keep your same coverage, you laughed. well good people, it's no longer a laughing matter because people are getting their full time hours cut to 30 hours or less per week &, are losing their healthcare coverage. less hours worked=less revenue the gov't can collect. those people that lose their present company healthcare coverage will be required to obtain their own gov't approved coverage or try to qualify for obamacare.
now, you might argue that company's are greedy however, when you point that finger, look in the mirror. one starts a company to make money. PERIOD! what's so wrong with that? most of you have jobs to either stay afloat or to get ahead. when the costs of goods, services & gasoline go up, the gov't continues to take their share from you; all of your bills still have to be paid & hey, two options you don't have are: layoff some of your family or print more money. you have to cut back. just imagine things as they now are & the gov't comes out with this 'milage tax' that they've been talking about. you're either going to pay the difference or drive less, whereas, companies have the ability to raise their prices or cut employees hours to pay the difference.
you wanted obamacare & now, we will have to suffer through it together. yes, there are some good things in it however, it's not doing what it was designed to do. healthcare costs have steadily been going up. company's are very reluctant to hire more people because nobody (&, i mean nobody) knows what the full effects of obamacare will have on them. they do know they'll have to pay more money & for them, it's easier & cheaper to cut your hours & just drop your coverage...
&, just so you'll know that there are others that think as i do, please read this...http://www.gopusa.com/commentary/2012/11/16/malkin-hows-that-obamacare-waiver-workin-out-for-ya/?subscriber=1

CORRECTION!!!
hello america!!! this morning i stated that 627 hostess twinkie workers would be out of work...this is the correction to that number: the new number is 18,500 people because hostess has closed its doors....
AMERICA, STRAIGHT TALK!!!
hello america!!! here's your jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/ &, as usual, there is no good news here, in fact, it seems november took a heavy toll on jobs. if you'll scroll down to nov 1st, you know exactly what i am talking about. between the layoffs, bankruptcies &, closings, good paying jobs are hard to come by or keep.
you may be okay at the moment but, tomorrow is another thing...look at this...http://www.dailynews.com/business/ci_21969400/bankrupt-bakers-footwear-liquidating-21-los-angeles-area?source=most_viewed while no specific number of layoffs has been mentioned, when you close 150 stores, you have a minimum of 2/3 employees per store.
the above is a great example of failed economic policies. yeah, i know, i'm still hating...well, read the following & then tell me it's hate.....
let's just concentrate on bakers footwear & assume they have just 2 employees per store---that's 300 people out of work; that's also 300 people the gov't can no longer collect revenue from; that's 300 people that won't be financially contributing to their communities as much because they'll start spending less; their community goods & services will not be able to collect TAXES as much as before meaning, out fed gov't gets even less revenue; those business's will have to cut back on employee hours to offset the loss.
well just multiply that by, say, http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-505123_162-57548662/hostess-brands-shuts-down-three-bakeries-after-strike/ where 627 people will soon be out of jobs.
here's one more...http://www.foxbusiness.com/news/2012/11/15/procter-gamble-plans-more-job-cuts-boosts-buyback-program-50/ they're talking about 5,900 people losing their jobs by june 30th &, i'm certain, you have something from procter-gamble in your home.
what part of 'we are not going forward' do you not understand? i'm not hating---just posting facts. if obamas plans had worked, we would not be where we are now. by the way, 439,000 new jobless claims were filed last week &, even though the gov't wants to blame it on superstorm sandy, the numbers don't add to support their claim. ny had 2,241 claims, nj had 5,675 &, connecticut had 1,783.......so, the increase was not due to the storm.
while i am extremely happy that america re-elected a black man to run the country, i just wish it were a black man that had some sense of business because, we desperately need jobs---not more rhetoric...

SO YOU WANT OBAMACARE, HUH???
hello america!!! you wanted obamacare---well, by re-electing obama, you've gotten your wish. the only question you never stopped & asked was: what's it going to cost me? my good people, you're about to find out in a very rude way.
some company's are just not going to offer you obamacare or any other type of healthcare & they get around it by cutting your work hours &/or raising their prices...either way, it directly effects your pocket (& time, for those that depend on the fast-food places for a quick dinner for yourself or family after work). it will have an effect on all business & the extra cost is going to be passed right on down the line---some company's are already jockeying to be in a position not to have full-time employees & many are already on record for raising the costs of their goods & services---good luck in getting those one percenter's to pay your way.
denny's is the latest to join the group of those finding ways around the law...http://www.gopusa.com/theloft/2012/11/15/dennys-joins-growing-list-of-restaurants-considering-obamacare-charge/?subscriber=1
this is just in the restaurant business---look at all the other business's that will do the same. yeah, i know---let's boycott them. great thinking!!! while you're out their on the line, people will be earning less so, they'll be taking home less & yet, they'll still have to pay more for whatever they buy...
&, if you think that sears, kmart & walmart (& those like them) are going to have to pay more & you won't, you just might want to join the land of the living...it just ain't gonna happen like that....
just think, if obama gets his wish to increase the taxes on those making $200,000 a year or more, you're going to get hit even harder.
well, since i don't know too much, i know this; if those company's with unionized workers have to pay the fed gov't more, do you honestly think they won't charge you the difference? i can't wait to see how this will play out with all the yellow cabs in NYC....
&, one more thing or two: obamacare is supposed to be so affordable & yet, the vast majority of waivers went to company's representing unionized labor because it will create a hardship for them. what in the hell do you think it's going to do for those company's with regular every day workers?
for those that supported obama, i don't wish this on you but, if it were to happen: i would love to see your face when they cut your hours from 40 per week to 30 per week (so as not to get a penalty tax) & you have to go out there & either sign up for obamacare or purchase your own gov't approved healthcare insurance.

& THEN, IT COMES BACK TO BITE YOU!!!
hello america!!! for those that voted for obama, his handling of world events must never have been a consideration &, the reason i say this is: do you remember when egypt was in turmoil & obama wanted president hosnu mubarak out? the muslim brotherhood visited the whitehouse to assure obama & company that they would not be running for president, then they turned around & the leader of the brotherhood won (president mohamed mursi) the election. well, obama got his wish & we are not better off because of it.
then we have this...http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/11/16/us-palestinians-israel-hamas-idUSBRE8AD0WP20121116 with all that has negatively happened in the middle east since the 'arab spring' (which obama also supported) is it any wonder that our enemy would support anybody that's against israel? this cannot be good news for obama & company &, if egypt actively helps the hamas militants, we could be facing another 'middle east war' that we would be compelled to get involved in.
obama may have to prove how much he has israel's back sooner then he thought...also, this is just another example of obamas seriously flawed middle east policy................

JOBLESS CLAIMS UP!!!
hello america!!! the new jobless claims rose to 439,000 & they say, it was unexpected while others blame superstorm sandy. well, you are being 'pissed' on & the fed gov't is calling it rain. i've been saying there is some funny business going on with our labor department & the way they've been reporting the numbers &, it all began when, just 2 months ago, they dropped our national unemployment rate from 8.1% to 7.8% & based it on weak hiring & 800,000 plus people walking away from the workforce. then, just before the election, it rose to 7.9%, also based on weak hiring. based on the numbers, that 8.1% should have been raised however, that would not have helped obama.
congress needs to investigate what is going on with the reporting of the jobs numbers because there is just too much doubt as to their accuracy. i've been following the loss of jobs as best i can &, for whatever reason, 2+2 is not equaling 4....
this is the time of year when hiring for thanksgiving, black friday &, christmas take place &, one would think that the jobless claims would be lowering.

JUST MORE OBAMA CRAP!!!
hello america!!! here's your daily jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/ this is (& has been) a gigantic problem for obama &, he should be devoting as much time to it as is possible instead of just paying lip service to it. obama should be asking the senate to address those 30-odd, house passed, jobs related bills that have been sitting there for quite some time...
good people, with all the scandals that have previously rocked the obama admin, why was this latest one kept from you...http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2012/nov/13/obama-john-allen-petraeus-scandal

A COVER UP TO COVER UP ANOTHER COVER UP!!!
hello america!!! the below picture says it all. obama has warned the repubs to 'lay off' her. WHY? obama allowed her to be paraded in front of multiple cameras on multiple days to give the obama-spin to what happened in benghazi & now, he wants to shield her. more importantly, the american people need to know who told her to say what she said because numerous accounts have been forwarded to the public: starting with, the state department watching what went down in real time & then blaming it on a video....

obama & the dems, when the repubs first started making waves about the attacks in libya, called the congressional hearings 'political' & a 'fishing expedition'---just goes to show that with enough fortitude, you can actually catch that 'whopper'.

MY FIRST SINCE THE ELECTION!!!
hello america!!! it's been hard to come to grips with having obama for another 4 years. what bothers me most about it is: the groups of people he has supported the least gave him the most support...ie; black america (unemployment for blacks is at 14.3%,); hispanic america (unemployment for latino's is at 10%); &, teenage america (unemployment for teenagers is at 23.7%). just so you'll know, the national unemployment rate is 7.9%.
well, you reap what you sow &, if you noticed, obama isn't taking jobs---he's too bust talking about raising the taxes on those making $200,00/$250,000 or better. just for once, i wish congress would grant obama his wish & raise those taxes. i really would like to see how those 3 above listed groups deal with the fallout because they never did their own math to see exactly how much it would exasperate their own situations. raising those taxes will cause more harm then good. look, honest math never lies:::just take $200,000 & divide it by 52 weeks &, anyone or any business making $3,846 a week is affected. for those in allentown pa, this includes our nightclubs, woody's, skate-away, bowling, corner stores, etc...when you raise their taxes, they're going to raise the costs of their goods & services. some of your nail & hair salons are going to raise their rates...don't stop there, what about those legitimate daycare centers? you think their going to swallow new tax rates or are they going to charge you more? hell, every time gas goes up, we not only pay the difference at the pumps but, we also get to pay the difference when we buy our goods & services.
big mistake america...&, if you care to remember obama very recently said he 'won't sign any bill to avoid the 'fiscal cliff' that doesn't include those tax raises'.
&, something else obama isn't talking about is: our social security disability system is estimated to be broke by 2017. basically, that's 4 years from now. however, because of the lack of jobs, many, many more people are taking advantage of this system meaning it will run out of money even sooner.
then there's social security. they predict it will become insolvent in 2037...hell, they just released a report that says those that are working now are paying for those that are already in the system.
then we have the other public entitlements such as welfare (financially, medically &, food stamps), housing & daycare assistance to think about & how we're going to continue to help those that actually need it.
i'm sure your belief in obama will be justified...all you have to do is read the plan he has never submitted for fixing the above problems & yet, he's the very first one to castigate anybody that has submitted a plan. the bottom line is, we need jobs & obama is not a job maker.
