Income falls 3.2% during Obama's term

[Pinocchio Liberal 268]

When people lose their jobs, their incomes will fall.

When they're forced to work part time hours, their incomes will fall.

When they take involuntary pay cuts or furloughs , their incomes will fall.

The OP has a pretty obvious political spin, but the economic statistics are not very surprising to anyone who's been reading the Business section of their newspaper.

Especially when they got a new.........I mean RAW deal.

Reading the Beige Book for April right now. It sounds hopeful!

Aren't you supposed to be a professional at spotting a well written or poorly written piece? Couldn't you enlighten the masses as to why you think it's badly written?

You want to be spoon fed eh? Whatever happened to "personal responsibility"?

Jackass.

You guys do understand the concept of a recession?

I am starting to believe that all of these loony horror films based on a crazy yank are actually non-fictional. You have to really wonder about people's sanity and intelligence when there are so many with backwards beliefs regarding the clinging onto guns, the government being the enemy, socialism being the root of evil yet uber capitalism being awesome to Obama being the cause of everything. Yet apparently under the Bush years, we all prospered with hundreds of thousand of dollars.

PS As I have said before, wages have and are still being impacted across the board by illegal aliens. It doesn't take a rocket scientists to understand that when you have an unlimited supply of cheap unskilled labor, wages will fall. As a result of this and all of the jobs shipped to China (thank capitalism), blue collar work is no longer an option. Therefore, more and more are going to college, which is and will further drive down those wages as well.

If anyone was spoon fed knowledge from you, it would be a starvation diet.

I hoping to get some insight from you backing up another of your personal opinions but alas nada. Your track record of not being able you explain your own statements always gives me my daily chuckle.

You're hoping for nothing Dave. You obsess over an article about a supposedly misrepresented title in a frankly irrelevant article about some racist nutjob; yet at the same time you completely gloss over another article that makes the single, pointed contention that a fall in personal income is directly and solely the fault of the Obama administration and has nothing whatsoever to do with the prevailing economic conditions.

Furthermore you demand that I point this out to you!

You Div!

One article at a time, maestro.

I'm glad you finally cleared that up for me. Sure it's bit simplistic to place all the blame on Obama but to divorce Obama from the decline in personal income is beyond belief. The President and Congress have a big impact on the economy and personal income is a valid economic indicator of performance by our politicos.
