ghostgotcha Loc: The Florida swamps

During the last of President Bush's term the Democrats took control of the house and the money bags. They immediately started with their liberal tinkering with the economy and by the time Obama took office the U.S. Economy was headed into the crapper. By the time Obama left office the economy was in terrible shape and the sewage was overflowing our every town.

Think of your own city; can you remember all the shuttered business windows downtown? Can you remember your neighbors forced to receive government help just to survive?

Do you remember the housing crash? Up here in Western North Carolina both residential and commercial construction all but shut down. Building contractors right and left were failing and forced to vacate the area and move wherever they could find work. This in turn caused failures in the sub contractor field and the shutdown of supporting business such as equipment rental stores and even lumber yards and concrete.

Our real estate marked crashed. Existing home sales all but vanished. In our own mountain neighbors houses sit vacant. Many owners gave up and took theirs off the market. Did you read the bank repossessions listed in your own local newspaper?

Do you remember the liberal media promoting the idea that this was all normal and to be expected? Do you remember the idiots doing everything they could to pacify the coal miners losing their livelihood in PA and W-Virginia? Do you remember Obama issuing his own orders to shut down energy expansion and other economic building projects? Did you buy into this Bull Crap and promote it yourself?

Are you dumb-arsed liberals still confused about why the American people have left you sitting in the crapper wondering where your stink came from? Are you really?

Well read on. This story changes right now.

Yes! The American people rose up -- despite the illegal actions by the liberal media, their co-hearts in crime and backed by the socialist Democrats known far and wide as "Clinton and friends" --- we elected President Trump.

Now in less than one year -- and despite the continuous rants, lies and underhanded bullcrap - Things are getting much better than we could have expected.

How you say? Just look at the unemployment rate. In my town today.. If you want a job there are at least a dozen companies which will hire you in a NY minute with a reasonable pay rate with benefits... How about your city. Is it controlled by the Democrats or Republicans.

More business is moving into our area. One example is; In less than a year two major grocery chain stores have opened and another "Publix" is under construction. This alone brings over five hundred jobs to a small town.

So far this year every house on our mountain has sold at the asking price. New home and commercial construction is starting up again.

Almost every business you drive by from motels to fast food have help wanted signs outside. They are pleading for applicants because more jobs are available than citizens to fill them.

Even a national bus tour company is advertising on our local TV for drivers. They are saying part time - over time - what ever route you want to drive. We will train you and provide great benefits. Call us today.... (please)

Yes! It is time for us all to enjoy the reaction our country has shown to the election of President Trump.

Good Job America..... Great Job!

=================
During the term of Mr. Obama, food stamp users went up to 56 million households, and 51% households don't pay any income tax. He won the second term.

The democrats want more FOOD STAMP BEGGARS, and welfare dependents, because these people all vote for democrats. The more of them, the more votes they get. So as illegal aliens and DACA, hoping after making them citizens they all vote for democrats. Thus ensuring lifetime victory for democrats.

These are their strategies. They don't want jobs for people, they want beggars and social dependents to vote for them. That is why all democrats in the Senate, and the House refuse to vote for the New Tax Bill that will provide jobs for the people. When people have jobs, most of them vote Republicans.

This is a relationship the democrats and welfare recipients build towards each other at taxpayers' expense. Many are so comfortable already with their monthly welfare checks without wasting any of their sweats.

Under Obama, not only were there millions of poor people receiving food stamps, but millionaires were also receiving food stamps. When the meanie Trump took office, he decided to end food stamps for the rich. All Americans were hurt by the failing economy, but especially the blacks. Under Trump, all are benefiting from the economic growth,the unemployment rate is the lowest it's been in decades. The unemployment rate for blacks is the lowest it's ever been. The Left seem to think that women,blabks, and Hispanics want Big Brother to carry them via welfare, food stamps, Medicaid, etc. But, in reality, women and minorities would rather have a job and support them selves, just like everyone else.

I do remember these times. The question is do we just lay down like we did after the Tea Party revolt ? Hold the ones that we elected to make change to the fire or just let them become part of the swamp. President Trump has to have our help, we can not slack, can not feel that the war is won. It has only begun.

A lot of alternative facts listed above.

It appears you have a deep understanding and appreciation for "alternative facts" else why would you wrap them around your neck like hanging rope so frequently?

Does any one else remember,after the election of 2016, when President O commented about how stupid the American people were to electTerump? Maybe it's because of how stupid we Americans are that the Democrats insist on letting dead people ,nonexistent people, people who aren't Americans, and people who have already voted else where vote. At least these groups consistently vote for the Democrats.

I would like to see where he actually said that, other than in your mind.

Obama was the "Food Stamp President", not only were the poor getting food stamps, even some millionaires were. After Trump took ffice, he cut off food stamps for people who didn't qualify, what are those poor millionaires going to do i they ha to pay for their own food?

moldyoldy

Have you ever told the truth about anything?

Here's what I remember

Bush took a budget surplus, meaning there was the chance to actually start paying down the debt instead of increasing it. Bush lowered taxes in an economy that was thriving and had put in 25 million jobs in spite of Clinton raising taxes. Bush tax cuts and a war that was entered for false reasons went on to create a $1.3 Trillion deficit. Never during that run up did it occur to Bush to say, oops, better put the taxes back where they were.

Trump inherited a record level stock market, home values back where they were, decent gas prices, record unemployment, almost eight years of uninterrupted jobs growth, low interest rates on homes.

Now a year in we have seen Trump jump to a tax reduction nobody wealthy needed, the stock market lost 10% in the last few weeks, directly attributed to several policies including initiating a trade war with China, monkeying with our Mexican and Canadian trade partners, And trashing corporations like Amazon when he doesn't like their owners because they won't say nice things to him.

By the way, Trump just boned his red heartland of american supporters with a China trade war.

Don't start praising the Donald yet, because he's just begun to monkey up this economy. Economists are crunching numbers on what China's list of the first 128 products they are going to tariff by 25%, it's going to hurt jobs and real people. And it would seem that China may have put an eye toward making it hurt Trump supporters.

Good job Trump, making Murika great again, those depression days were the best.
