    I am very happy for you that you are wealthy enough to not get out of bed for 2K, but for most people in US it could mean 2-3 months of rent taken care, or a whole year of health insurance, car insurance, or home owners insurance taken care of, or a whole year of cable, internet, or general utilities taken care of.

    You haven't addressed the $70bil in buy back in 10 days. It closer to $300bil now.

    $300bil gone forever from the economy to the pockets of the rich, to be hoarded.
    I haven't addressed it, because unlike you I could care less what people do with their own money, or specifically do with money that isn't mine. I don't have a communist mentality where I am constantly worried about what the rich earn and how much I should steal from them through taxes. I care about how my family and I make, and what congress is doing to help me. If the rich benefit in the process of me benefiting thats fine by me.

      Sure thing....

      The most telling numbers:

      During the Obama years, the number of Americans below the poverty line is up 3.5 percent.

      Real median household income: down 2.3 percent.

      Americans on Food Stamps — 33 million then, 46 million now: up 39.5 percent.

      Americans who own homes: down 5.6 percent.

      National debt — $10.63 trillion then vs. $19.19 trillion last Wednesday: up 80.5 percent
      .

      The percent of Americans in the workforce — either working or seeking work — remained steady, at around 66 percent during the Bush presidency. But under Mr. Obama it has plummeted from 65.7 percent the month he took office in January 2009 to just 62.8 percent in November. That translates to more than 7 million fewer workers in the workforce. That drop is artificially lowering the unemployment rate.


      While total dependency on welfare has been growing, the number of Americans needing some form of federal aid to get by has skyrocketed. The latest report from the government estimates more than 23 percent of Americans lived in a family that received some form of welfare help under Mr. Obama, up 17.1 from the last year of Mr. Bush’s presidency.

      One of the fastest-growing areas of federal dependency is Social Security disability, where the number of Americans has ballooned from 7.4 million in January 2009, when Mr. Obama took office, to 10.9 million in November.

      Even the Clintons have acknowledged Obama as a failure:

      As the Wall Street Journal’s Dan Henninger has noted, even the Clintons acknowledge Obama’s economic wreckage. Americans are suffering “the awful legacy of the last eight years,” Bill Clinton said in March. He explained on April 26, “The problem is, 80 percent of the American people are still living on what they were living on the day before the crash [of 2008]. And about half the American people, after you adjust for inflation, are living on what they were living on the last day I was president, 15 years ago. So that’s what’s the matter.”

        interesting since

        The economy has added more than 9 million jobs, and the jobless rate has dropped to below the historical median.
        The number of long-term unemployed Americans has dropped by 614,000 under Obama, but it is still 761,000 higher than at the start of the Great Recession.; real weekly wages are up 3.4 percent.
        There are 15 million fewer people who lack health insurance.
        Wind and solar power have nearly tripled, and now account for more than 5 percent of U.S. electricity.

                It is free if you are dirt poor, however, generally speaking nothing is free, you either pay for it through taxes, or have a bigger check and then the burden is on you to manage your own expenses.


                Does the government pay for all peoples car insurance, utilities, rent, etc... in Australia?

                  They already are.

                  Trump inherited a wonderful economy from Obama. It was growing at 2%. LMFAO!!!!

                    He asked you for sources, then said they didn't count.

                    He's lowered himself to Siablo tactics. LMFAO!!!

                    The fact is Obama created jobs, but most were McJobs that paid less than jobs lost. This same phenomenon happened under Jimmy Carter. Go figure....
