Predictions for the future...says that people will continue blaiming any president for the economy, the blame game is popular because people are so irresponsible they can't blame themselves for anything that goes wrong, it's always the governments fault. You see what happens when people depend on government too much.

everybody that is not in the middle class, bashes that group- well, let me tell you, i am in that group, we bought a house for 225,000 and it was appraised for 250,000 so, the lending bank that did our appraisel said. it is now worth 180,000. the banks over sold us,and now, our neighborhood has foreclosures that the bank again is screwing the people, now, they are underselling every home, and letting the property look like crap, so, people not envolved in this mess, who bought years ago, have lost all their equity, no one is holding these lending banks accountable,, their should be rioting in the streets for all this robbery, they are now being bought up by the rich, imagine that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ds

Here we are after 8 years of great Republican pro-economic policies such as out-of-control irresponsible monetary policy.

Obama's role-model of responsibility brings management principals that will get the average worker inspired to contribute by taking up similar ethics of responsibility.
