Enormous increase in poverty since 2009 under Obama
Made popular 398 days ago in Politics
wnd.com — The number of New Yorkers classified as poor in 2010 increased by nearly 100,000 from the year before, raising the poverty rate ... to 21 percent .... Even families with two full-time earners were more likely to be considered poor in 2010; their ranks swelled by 1.3 percentage points to 5 percent compared with 2009.

There are approximately 149Million adults working in the US, however only 85 Million actually pay taxes, meaning that 64 Million working adults are too poor to pay taxes. If you don't think they are too poor to pay taxes then why aren't they paying taxes to support interstate roads, federal courts, and all the other things the federal government does for them?

Americans are fleeing to other countries in greater numbers than ever before.
Last year, almost 1,800 people ... renouncing their U.S. citizenship.... almost eight times more than the number of citizens who renounced in 2008, and more than the total for 2007, 2008 and 2009 combined. This is unprecedented in US history, always before people flocked to the US as the land of opportunity; now they are deserting the US as the land of no opportunity under Obama.

President Barack Obama said in February 2009 that his presidency would be "one-term proposition" if the economy did not recover in three years. Should he keep his campaign promise?

Economy has recovered from the Republican created mess.

President Obama has done a great job given the severity of the matter that we encountered during President Bush's presidency. If we put a Republican back in office we will put back these failed Bush policies.

Poverty in America is at the hands of Republican policies.

Obama has kept his promises, and will be reelected.

Cliff and Free : Your heads are in the sand. Check out the real numbers of what is going on in our country. My husband goes to Obamavilles to feed the homeless and it has grown exponentially.

LD/LBE help me with a list of promises BO has broken in a new poll. You can call me Gma.

Cliff: Give up the troll script and say what you really think.

@grandmakdw Gma, he was supposed to be the "great uniter" but has been the ignorant divider.
He will make the oceans recede.

@grandmakdw "We will restore science to it's 'rightful' place." When talking about "man made global warming."

Cliff - Free: Where are you? I'd like to hear from you again on this issue!
We have in raw numbers 2 million fewer jobs in 2012 than in 2009.
The current administration has stopped counting people who stopped looking and have run out of unemployment benefits as unemployed. Even though they are worse off now then when officially "unemployed".
Check out the facts yourself in terms of raw job numbers, not unemployment numbers.
