AMERICA’S YOUTH TURN
ON THE “HOPE & CHANGE” GUY…. in massive numbers!
“Slowly, Mr. Obama has changed the United
States into another country — the Soviet States of America — an authoritarian
state where false promises of "hope and change" were used to
manipulate the public.”
Income inequality
grows four times faster under Obama than Bush
The study noted that, in the aftermath of the Great
Depression, the US undertook policies “during the New Deal [that] permanently
reduced income concentration until the 1970s.” In contrast, the study noted a
striking absence of any measures to reign in social inequality in the present
crisis. Far from it, the Obama administrations’ bank bailouts, austerity
program and wage-cutting policies have vastly expanded the prevalence of social
inequality.
THE DEATH OF THE AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS
OBAMA’S WALL STREET DRIVE CRONY CAPITALISM
The Great
Recession should have put the victim-blaming theory of poverty to rest. In the
space of only a few months, millions of people entered the ranks of the
officially poor—not only laid-off blue-collar workers, but also downsized tech
workers, managers, lawyers, and other once-comfortable professionals. No one
could accuse these “nouveau poor” Americans of having made bad choices or bad
lifestyle decisions. They were educated, hardworking, and ambitious, and now
they were also poor—applying for food stamps, showing up in shelters, lining up
for entry-level jobs in retail. This would have been the moment for the pundits
to finally admit the truth: Poverty is not a character failing or a lack of
motivation. Poverty is a shortage of money.
