The intentional destruction of the middle class continues
Re-distribution of wealth so that inner-city dwellers can continue their 4th generation of welfare-dependency, 75%+ out-of-wedlock birthrates, and gang/drug lifestyles are taking their toll on those who want to earn their own way, work for a living, and provide for their OWN families.
It will come down to a Civil War II, and it won't be pretty, but those who understand WHY the second Amendment is there will be okay.
The driveby twits have it all ready to go, Newt-Towns, Romneyburgs, Perryvilles, etc.
In Obamaspeak, it’s called “fairness”. He’s leveling the playing field.
Forgive me if I don’t have a ton of sympathy for these people. They spent the last decade living the high life and living well beyond their means. They bought big homes, flashy cars, had opulent vacations, and paid for it all with borrowed money. Meanwhile my family lived in a modest home, we drove an older car that was paid for, we paid cash for what we needed, and put away money, food, and necessities against a rainy day and the in-crowd derided us as ‘cultish’ and as ‘paranoid. As if the good times and the gravy train would never stop.
And then it did.
So now it is hard times and my family is doing pretty good. We bought a fantastic ranch and home for less than 20% of what it cost to build a few years back. We own it outright while the people who built it are now living in an apartment in Denver. The pantry is full, so is the gun safe, and we’re doing just fine.
Call us cultish and paranoid if you want, we’re doing better than the proverbial Joneses we’re supposed to be keeping up with.
“This surge in the percentage of the poor is fueling concerns about a growing disparity between the rich and poor — the 99 percent versus the 1 percent in the parlance of the Occupy Wall Street movement.”
Poor Michelle. Nobody told her that she’s a nitwit before she scribbled her 50 IQ screed. Now the world knows - Michelle is a clod! But that’s to be expected from female affirmative action hires.
Had this knuckle-dragging bimbo looked at her own story, the part where she scribbles this: “One in six people in the U.S. are poor, according to the latest census data, compared to one-in-ten Americans in 2004.”
Her pea-brain might have made a connection and wrote of differences between the Bush presidency and the obuma train disaster.
Their low density housing consumes resources and harms the environment in a manner that the Left cannot easily manage or coerce. Impoverish them and they will either move into high density government approved housing or become clients for scraps which the Leftist managers can throw them. Maybe both.
Near my neighborhood is a Goodwill. I never noticed such a nearly full parking lot as just prior to this Christmas. I concluded times are now more difficult than I had understood. Maybe it was those 180 dollar jordan sneakers.
This situation can only be relieved by higher taxes.
The peons will continue to be bred by the government for their vote.
We moved here in the semi-boonies six years ago and inherited the old community foodbank phone number.
Been getting enough calls lately that we found out the new number to pass on to our now frequent callers.
The government keeps the poverty numbers up in several ways.
One way is that they do not count as income the money that people receive for welfare, housing, food stamps, free medical, aid for children, free meals at schols, etc. So they may show an income well below the poverty level but if you add it all together they are actually living at a middle class income level.
In my neck of the woods the city government has been shutting down public housing and moving teants out of the city into subdivisions throughout the county.
Also, we may be in an economic meltdown but that hasn’t slowed the federal government down. They are still bringing in new black, hispanic and muslim immigrants and many are getting placed in subdivision rentals on the taxpayers tab.
These people are all living on the taxpayers backs and living in better housing than many hard working taxpayers can afford for themselves.
Lyndon Johnson fired the first shot with his War on Poverty.
Barry Hussein Obama is finishing us off with his War on Prosperity.

If food prices keep rising we will se a whole lot more of us needing help.
I guess 0 did have hope and change...he was hopeful that people wouldn’t listen to his speeches... and his changes were for the worse!!
