America is broken and bankrupt

[jeninflorida]

in America how many "government" entities have declared bankruptcy?

Illinois is on the verge of bankruptcy!

Why? government corruption, pension system, and a general lack of intelligence in government.

Under obama we have no reached 16 TRILLION dollars of debt

America is NOW the new Greece.

With obama, are you better off than you were 4 years ago? (If you work in government or are on welfare then this question does not pertain to you.)

the vast majority of America are NOT better off thanks to obama.

If you have money or assets, move it outside of America! Especially if Obama gets another 4 years.

This is NOT make the rich pay their fare share as sadly we do not have enough "rich" people to pay for the inept and unskilled Obama and greedy Democrats

I agree! You should take a picture with my name scrawled across your bosom.

Wow, Jen is a threadmaking dervish. This must be Busybody.

 

[Adre]

well, those of us who have assets are actually better off. Check the stock market numbers from 2008. This would not include you.

Chicken Little likes to walk in the woods. She likes to look at the trees. She likes to smell the flowers. She likes to listen to the birds singing.
One day while she is walking an acorn falls from a tree, and hits the top of her little head.
"My, oh, my, the sky is falling. I must run and tell the lion about it,"says Chicken Little and begins to run.
She runs and runs. By and by she meets the hen.
"Where are you going?" asks the hen.
"Oh, Henny Penny, the sky is falling and I am going to the lion to tell him about it."
"How do you know it?" asks Henny Penny.
"It hit me on the head, so I know it must be so," says Chicken Little.
"Let me go with you!" says Henny Penny. - Run, run.
So the two run and run until they meet Ducky Lucky.
"The sky is falling," says Henny Penny. - We are going to the lion to tell him about it.
"How do you know that?" asks Ducky Lucky.
"It hit Chicken Little on the head," says Henny Penny.
"May I come with you?" asks Ducky Lucky.
"Come," says Henny Penny.
So all three of them run on and on until they meet Foxey Loxey.
"Where are you going?" asks Foxey Loxey.
"The sky is falling and we are going to the lion to tell him about it," says Ducky Lucky.
"Do you know where he lives?" asks the fox.
"I don't." says Chicken Little.
"I don't," says Henny Penny.
"I don't," says Ducky Lucky.
"I do," says Foxey Loxey. "Come with me and I can show you the way."
He walks on and on until he comes to his den.
"Come right in," says Foxey Loxey.
They all go in, but they never, never come out again.

You can say it and wish it one million times over, but it still won't be true, traitor.

"Since hitting bottom in 2009, U.S. exports have grown 45 percent on a monthly basis, Gross says. The hundreds of thousands of manufacturing jobs that were shipped overseas severely blunted the manufacturing sector, yet a turnaround for the industry and American workers looks promising. The Institute for Supply Management reported that its index of U.S. manufacturing activity rose to 54.8 in April, the highest level since June 2011, as new orders, production and employment increased. Readings above 50 indicate expansion."

No you aren't. In 2009 dollars, the Dow is barely over where it was back in 2009 due to inflation.

However, blaming Obama is pointless, it took 2 parties to bankrupt us and several decades to do it. Romney won't fix this either. He has already promised not to make any big cuts...thus we continue with 1+ trillion dollar deficits no matter which one wins

Please explain to me how Public deficits are directly associated with the Dow Jones Industrial Average Index ($INDU).

yeah, but you can't say that as they follow obama like little sheep.

if you think about it both Obama and Romney know how to work and exploit the system. Obama from the welfare/union and Romney from the corporate side

The game will continue as these sheep keep pointing the finger. I'm just having fun firing up the mental defectives

Excuse me genius, but I said 2008, not 2009. And there has been almost no inflation in the past four years. You don't know my portfolio, nor do you seem to know much about anything where the market is involved.

Even if you start with the high point in December 2009, the DJIA has outpaced inflation by nearly a factor of two.

Now then, who's going to do the fact-checking and hand out the pinocchios?

Why is the thread starter giving a "thumbs-up" to "America is broken and bankrupt"?

I'll answer that: because she's desperate to see a black President fail.

And no, that's not true of all Republicans - not by a long shot. But it's true of jeninflorida, koalabear, amicus, eyer, vetteman, and the rest of the Hitler crowd on the GB.
