Okay folks... heres the reality check

I cant blame this country's problems on any prez of the US. (I will get to some things I can blame on the prez...but first...)

Once upon a time, America had a thriving middle class (80%+/- of Population).

The middle class was comprised of a body of skilled workers across all industries. For every dollar a worker earned, he /she was taxed roughly 20 cents (It fluxuated from time to time) .

Congress would collect that tax. BUT, instead of saving some of it, it decided to spend all of it on Programs A and B.

One day, during a Koolaid break, Congress was convinced by some PAC dudes to spend some money on Program C. AT first, it was no problem, (but Program A & B would have to make some sacrifices to support Program C)

Then some politico dude piped up and said...We dont have to sacrifice anything...Lets just raise the taxes on the middle class body of workers.

SO it cam to pass that Program A & B & C were fully funded....Over time, so too were programs D ,E, F, ....Z and so on.

The middle class body of workers were now dinking it (Dual income families) and still not making ends meet.

Then one day, a Politico dude piped up and told Congress that the programs needed yet more money. But congress reminded them, saying that the middle class body of workers were all tapped out... So, they started to tax the wealthy ( The wealthy in America refers to Corporate America) .

Thus, a tax assault on the wealthy began. Then one day, the press released this. "Thousands laid off as Economy plunges into recession"

COrporate Americans reminded the public that They could not support both the Taxes AND the middle-class body of workers. There would need to be a sacrifice.

Congress continued to tax and tax, in order to spend and spend on the programs they claim to have invented. The programs were doing great...until one day, a fed reserve agaent noticed a substantially low level of tax revenue from the middle-class body of workers. The same lows came from the Wealthy. In fact, they realized that the flow was reversed. The Gov was paying tax returns since nobody earned enough (due to unemployment) to pay into the tax system anymore.

As such this is precisely the stalemate we are in today. OBama cant fix this... Romny or Paul couldnt fix this... There is only one entity who can fix this:

YOU

1) COnsider how many programs might actually be a waste...and get rid of them
2) Stop using credit cards.
3) Invest in yourselves and actually learn a marketable skill (not just a college degree). Make yourself valuable enough that you can get paid handsomely.

After all that, it really doesn't matter who is in office.

Obama 'could' approach congress about this...but Congress wont have it. Dont get ris of Obama...Get rid of the Fkn Congress. Those are the guys who will Fk your daughters, and than pass abortion laws to get out of responsibility for her pregancy.

Remove Congress and build a better world for it.

Bank of America literally screwed my credit over a 20$ bill I never got.

Their mistake was in the fact that I was working at an electronic bill pay outfit at the time. I contacted my B2B contact and even she wouldn't do anything for me.

Long story short, I told her to send me a statement(s) of ZERO balance on both accounts and closed them forever.

I keep both cards wrapped in plastic with the statement of zero balance as a reminder of what utter scumbags credit card companies are and what COMPLETE fascists BOA is.

CREDIT CARDS ARE A TRAP FOR THOSE UNWARY ENOUGH NOT TO UNDERSTAND HOW TO USE THEM.

(If you screw me, I'll screw you back. It may take 20 years, but I have time and a LONG memory about such important matters.)
