Hope and Change: Obamanomics by the numbers
« on: January 02, 2012, 01:29:56 PM »
1.  Every day, the U.S. government takes in $6 billion and spends $10 billion.  This means that every day the federal government spends $4 billion more dollars than it has.

2.  The real unemployment rate is a jaw-dropping 11 percent.

3.  Every fifth man you pass on your way to work is now out of work.

4.  College graduates are now 34% less likely to find a job under Obama than they were under President George W. Bush.

5.  Every seventh person you pass on the sidewalk now relies on food stamps.

6.  The ravages of the Obama economy now mean that more Americans live under the federal poverty line than at any time in U.S. history since records have been kept.

7.  Under President Barack Obama, every fifth child in America now lives in poverty.

Did a DUmmie do the math? ...or is half the work force now women and they don't count?
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

11 percent of the TOTAL workforce (men, women, male panthers trapped in the bodies of female nut jobs...) out of work..

1 in 5 MEN (only those with a Y chromosome in the population) - the subset of the larger group above - out of work.
