Yes. If you believe that Obama and his ilk have (and are) creating a socialist utopia, then why not take a little drive.

While you are driving about check out all the business which has gone out of business since Obama took over.

Think (if you can) of the heartbreak, lost savings and efforts put into those failed business and the humans who had their dreams crushed by this grand socialist utopia fiasco.

How many boarded up store fronts and 'For Sale' signs will you find if you don't avert your eyes and really go out and look for them?

Go ahead, take that drive.

Come back here and report while sharing the stories from your little corner of the world.

I double dog dare you!

Yep, I tell people everyday...
Trust your eyes... look around you...
what do you see ?
Almost everyone you know is barely h*****g onto what they have...
Small, medium, large size companies...
timming the fat, starting layoffs again, cutting empolyee hours...
Sizing down, consolidating...
I can go on and on and on...

But the MediaClownFuc*s and the Banksters with SlimeStreet (wall) are in full overtime damage control under the guise of the FED, Treasury, ISB and every other monetary scheme they can come up with to tell you things are getting better...

But 300million people are still napping...
so let em' nap for a while longer...
by Christmas, the crying and the homeless will be on every corner !

Pray for Peace and that Peaceful V****g Change...
Prepare for Battle ! to save America !
Go watch the movie America... that may shed some light too...
They get about 2/3rds of it right...

Do you know of a local restaurant which has closed their doors, laid off their workers, packed up what they could into storage, turned off the lights, boarded up the window and now the building has a 'for-sale' sign on the front door?

I can think of three in my little home town which have done just that in the last three months. They were fine little operations, but the local people have had to cut back on their disposable income expenditures and are sitting at home and eating out less. The end result is a personal trauma for much more than the normal patrons who will have to go somewhere else..... Consider the direct impact.

Not only did the owners (who risked their own money and put in long hours) lose out, so did the employees who were struggling from paycheck to paycheck... Then what about the other businesses which sold the restaurant food and supplies -- will their employes feel the loss of business also. Maybe you or your family.

I have even seen four local doctors close their office and move out of the county. Our local hospital (a really nice one - paid for by our tax dollars) is just one step away from declaring bankruptcy, due in great part to the drain of offering free medical support to citizens who do not have health insurance, or cannot pay the high deductibles.

In the meantime President Obama (and his family) has taken another multi-million dollar vacation this week. Just another vacation paid for with your tax money. (which money you are forced to pay in one form or another)

Time to stop this idiocy and start replacing Democrats all over this country.

Yes. This county has been run by Democrats for years and years. So many locals are yellow dog Democrats, and they are the ones who are the first to lose their pants in this economy.

Wake up America....The liberal plantation is failed..... Wake up!!!!

Here is a cut and paste from my local newspaper... read it for yourself.

A burgeoning debt load, a lackluster economy that doubled the amount of charity care and the failure to adjust staffing ratios to patient numbers were major factors in the difficult times faced by ****** Regional Medical Center, according to documents made public last week.

Duke *******, a Nashville, Tennessee, based partnership between Duke and *******Hospitals, operates more than 65 community hospitals across the nation. The for-profit company has offered to purchase ****** Health System's principal units, **** and ******* facilities.

The details of the ******** purchase are not public, but the ****** sale agreement, which is subject to public review since the hospital's operating authority was organized as a public nonprofit entity, can be found on the county's website and will ...

Ghost, I feel for you buddy, If I lived in such a crappy part of the country, I would fall into a deep depression. I am sympathetic to your problems and truly grateful that that is not the case where I am at. Wishing you tons of luck and hoping the recovery will soon reach you... Hang in there my man, it is working out...

That's the bottom line with liberals,it hasn't hit them so to hell with everyone else.When it catches up with this person he will cry like a baby and it will.

Hemiman, to be honest, with my own family, it has come and gone. Back in 2009, my son the lawyer sold his practice to accept one of a number of jobs that had been offered for several years running. Suddenly, not a job to be found, it took him over a year to find an acceptable job. As it turned out, it is right in Minnesota. My other son, who fooled around for years, felt he should stop that stuff and get a real job. To do that he had to accept a temporary position at the U of M.. After two years, they made him full time and permanent. so he is also happy.

But you do have a valid point. It does not reflect well when I make comments on others who, through no fault of their own are struggling.

I do hope for all of the nations people that we can return to a prosperous time for all of us.

I am sorry if I PO anyone. I should not have done so...
