Are You Better Off?

Under Bush, several things were getting worse under his administration. The economy, home mortgages, banking, car companies, Afghanistan, our borders, unemployment, and ILLEGAL immigration. Agree?

Now after 1 1/2 years under Obama, ask youself this question: Are you and your country better off than before? Clearly Obama has had the opportunity to make changes to "fix" America's problems. He's been busy raming through new legislation and regulations. Have Obama's policies, new taxes, regulations, Stimulus, and ObamaCare REALLY helped you personally? Have they helped the economy? Are things in general getting better. Why NOT?

It wasn't his fault that America was in bad shape when he took office. So how are things now? Weren't they supposed to get better after the Stimulus? Wasn't unemployment supposed to be halted at 8% if we passed the Stimulus? Who benefitted the most from the Stimulus? Did it help you personally? Did it create private sector jobs as promised? How about all those "shovel-ready jobs"? Did they come to your area? Are you aware that if you count the people who are no longer looking for work and cannot find jobs because they have gone overseas that unemployment approaches almost 20% nationally? Why doesn't the government report that number?

Where did the Stimulus go? Who received it? Did the private sector created many new jobs or did they all go into the government because of the new regulations and controls? Are you aware that the Federal Reserve cannot account for the Stimulus spending? They have no idea if the individuals who received it are complying with the terms of receiving it. To refresh your mind, that was almost $900 Billion dollars. So where did it go? Shouldn't we demand an audit of the Federal Reserve to find out? Isn't ANYONE accountable in the government? Is Congress accountable? The President? Who IS accountable? No one!

Obama's administration now decides who is "too big to fail." Is this policy rewarding failure or is it fixing the problem? Is Treasury Secretary Geithner really doing a good job? Can we trust a man who doesn't pay his own taxes and is now in charge of the US Treasury? President Obama says that the economy is getting better and better. This is contrary to several "experts" who claim that we are heading towards a second Great Depression. Who's right? Do you feel that the economy is getting better? Do you know of anyone who is out of work? How long have they been out of work? Do you still have a job? Are you afraid of loosing your job soon?

What's wrong with this picture? Something is seriously wrong and we all know it. America is headed in the wrong direction. We can feel it. We can see it. We can and do believe that Obama has a lot to do with were we are headed. We feel uneasy, unsure, and uncomfortable. Congress is also just going along with the whole idea. They are NOT listening to Americans.

Last Chance to Help
Register to vote. In November vote-out anyone who has supported Obama's policies, regulations, new taxes, take overs. Anyone who has been in Congress more than two terms should leave office. They're not solving the problem, they ARE the problem. Get active politically. Join a 912 Project or local Tea Party organization. Start defending the Constitution instead of ignoring YOUR responsibility as a citizen.
