Who cares as long as the Obamaphones, food stamps, housing, college loans, Obamacare, subsidized transportation, utility assistance, unemployment, disability, etc., etc., etc... just keep on flowing. “Obama, Obama, Obama!”

There will be no recovery, once we have a Marxist state, we will fondly remember 2013....as not being too bad...

The rapid march o Marxism is bing led by republicans as well as democrats...

Cruz and Rand are just side shows, poppet masters to entertain the people who are in denial that Marxism is coming quickly to all of America

Only thing I can see is getting money out of the USA, invest in property overseas and get reay to split the looming decline and mass rioting

Romney would have been powerless...all politicians are crooked and all politicians know that we have to import people from Mexico to work for low wages and then have them pay high taxes to prolong the collapse from happening on their watch...

Whites aren’t producing a new generation of private sector workers to be taxed to death, most AA are government workers and are part of the perpetual problem so only thing left is to import and reward Spanish speaking blue collar tworkers o try to keep it all from collapsing now...

The company I work for had a big layoff today. I survived but my boss and 15-20% of the people in my organization are gone. This economy sucks.

And the hardcore folks - you know, the ones that can’t figure out why Obamacare didn’t actually lower premiums and make healthcare more available - will still believe that it was the Bush/Reagan policies that caused the crash.

Glad you survived the cuts. My husband’s company, for the first time ever, went to “summer hours” last Friday. Sure, he’ll have Friday afternoons off, but he also took a 10% pay cut. Not good...

I thought we were already at a snail’s pace so what does really slowing down from that mean?

Seasonal hiring was nil this year as far as I can see. Usually millions of temporary summertime workers are hired but we didn’t see that reflected in the jobs numbers.

Serendipity. If we HAD won, the avalanch of gun control measures after Sandy Hook would have handily passed with Romney at the wheel...

As it is, we need to hit rock bottom before any recovery in the Republic occurs.

“The ONLY reason why the “official” GDP isn’t negative is all of the deficit spending. GDP is actually negative if you take away the monitization that is going on right now by the Fed.”

Yep. Interesting that the GDP doesn’t have to subtract out debt spending and money printing. If our GDP is about $15 trillion (and I have serious doubt it is half that number) and the fed is spending $1 trillion each year on the markets, then we have 6.6% reduction in the GDP numbers, putting GDP negative by about 3%.

Pouted, then patted themselves on their principled back and stayed home

I didn't pout and I didn't stay at home...I voted Libertarian. The Democrats didn't do all this damage by themselves, they had plenty of help from the Republicans.

You are correct sir.

As long as the Re-pube-icans keep running guys like Rmoney at us, they are doomed to be a bunch of losers.

Sometimes I wonder if they aren’t playing for the other side. Other times, I’m sure they are.

I want somebody to vote for who has a spine and a case of red-ass. Fire me up and fire up the Conservative base, or go home.

there are no jobs for the young.

the old can not retire.

the old can not sell their homse to move to a retirement place.

people are not spending on credit.

people can not get credit for large purchases.

Banks make more money investing rather than lending.

banks do not pass along any interest as if they are coluding to keep interst on bank account balances at near zero.

nobody sane trusts obama.

low information voters know they can steal, mooch, or just vote whatever they want out of the treasury.

Democrats still exist.
