braindead: my wife harassed me for a long time to get an IRA. I didn’t want to, but finally gave in, though I kept telling her things were going to bomb. Well, I was right, and a few weeks after getting the IRA, it was 2008, and the “Bush bomb” hit and wiped it out. After 3.5 years of Obama, I’m finally back up to jus a hair over what I put in, so yep, I AM “better off”.
Verifiable facts presented with respect and inteligence is so refreshing. One word, as onguard suggested, might have answered the question, but it would never have fleshed it out as well as you did. Thank you,C.

Anyone with a 401(k), an IRA, or a stock portfolio is waaaay better off today than January of 2009. -You could look it up in multiple places.

Oh, I forgot, as Romney supporter you have no use for facts.
