Rob Rogers for January 29, 2015

The highest percentage of working age Americans simply not working since Jimbo Carter 40 years ago.48,000,000 Americans on Food Stamps.After almost 7 years, Americans are still making less money than when Obummer took office.Sounds like a spot-on forecast to most of us Rob!

The middle class has been making less money for the last couple of decades. It seems to me that conservative solutions are just as bad as liberal ones. A rising tide never lifted all boats. Giving breaks to big companies and the rich doesn’t seem to create jobs either.

Everyone knows that there are all sorts of ways to compile and interpret statistics.The fact remains that the US economy, like the current POTUS or not, middle class on less money than in previous years….true, IS on the upturn at nearly four per cent annual growth. That is better than France, Spain, the Republic of Ireland, Portugal, Italy, Great Britain, India, Brazil….. in fact, most of the countries that comprise the entire planet.

Now….in my book, that’s good.

The 1% is only happy if the rising tide lifts their boats disproportionately. If all boats rose equally, they’d be even more irate than they are now.
