Income inequality in the US under Obama. (http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/sep/4/incomes-fell-most-families-past-three-years-while-/)

Only the top 10% saw incomes rise under Obama.


Under President Obama, the richest 10 percent were the only income group of Americans to see their median incomes rise, according to a survey released this week by the Federal Reserve (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/us-federal-reserve/).


The Fed (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/us-federal-reserve/) datahttp://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/icon1.png (http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/sep/4/incomes-fell-most-families-past-three-years-while-/#) covered the years 2010-2013, during which period Mr. Obama constantly campaigned against income inequality and won re-election by painting his Republican rival as a tool of Wall Street plutocrats.

Of course. Between inflation, the slaughter of working and middle class jobs, and the propping up of Wall Street through QE infinity and other Wall Street favorable policies, this was the inevitable result.

But some people only care that he's a black man, merits don't matter, and how he hurts the poor, the young, the black, and the working class means shit to them, because, well, he's black.

Back 2 black motherfuckers.

Right, because Obama and his allies are just as corporatist as the GOP, backed by the likes of Goldman Sachs. He's a PINO.

Of course, low interest rates, and printing money drives the risk takers into the stock market. Working people are busy buying expensive obamacare, electricity, food, and their wages have actually gone down. Good job Obama voters.

Yeah, and those Mexicans flooded our welfare roles, the hospitals and our prisons at the same time.

Most of our landscapers are young, white men late teens to mid twenties, about 20% are Mexicans who are much older.

What that tells me is the White men are using that job as a stepping stone, or a summer job, or a job helping to pay for school, as some have told me. For the older Mexicans it's their job, career. They sre supporting families.

Flooding the job market with unskilled labor from below our southern border will take jobs from our young people, Black, White and Hispanic. Not a good economic decision. Many of the Mexicans send those US dollars back to family in Mexico to spend in Mexico, their economy benefits, ours doesn't.

Very dumb on our part.
