re: #235 francis

We saw our wealth disappear in 2008 and we saw it recover and we don’t use our votes to stop the people that continue to do this to us. To think that the extreme nuts on the right and left have control over our destiny is crazy. Politicians will do what ever the people allow them to do. We are too aligned with parties and not aligned with a clear path to a balanced government that does right for all.

The problem I have with your thinking is that you think Obama is one of the ones on the extreme left. He’s pretty middle of the road, really. He’s reduced the deficit lately, and could have done more if it weren’t for the Bush tax cuts.
