Hmmm....a Time Poll meaning a majority of liberals voted in it. Therefore, since Bush was in office it must have sucked ass...and it does according to some of the names posted.

Honestly, the last 10 years were the best for me, but I'm sure when the dollar fails (no thanks to the current admin.) in upcoming years, we'll be fucked.

When will both sides of the political arguement realize that the country you live in is the way it is because of all political descisions made since 1776?
The economy did not take a shit the day Obama took power. As I recall, it was on a downward slide when GWB was prez. Hell GWB was the one that started the bailouts.

Well, he did say "no thanks to the current admin." (which, of course, means it's not the current administration's fault).

I suspected that was just 101's language skills limitations, but I was willing to let it slide, because he was actually making sense...although probably only by accident.

No...it went to shit when we went off the Gold Standard. Money has been turned into made up numbers as long as you maintain a reserve ratio. Why save shit when down the road it is worthless?

All in the name of trying to give everything to everyone.

Money is not controlled by the US government. It is controlled by the treasury department, which is a separate entity owned by foriegn banks. Blame Obama for that one.

No thanks indicates not giving credit moreso than blaming. This admin is not helping our dollar value, but rather making it worse. The Obama admin is def. not the only one to blame.

The U.S. treasury is owned by foreign banks? News to me...
