GOP gave us tax cuts which helps
GOP now will claim the economy is great with Stock Market breaking the 12000 barrier.
BUT
What impact has inflation had on everything that a Middle Class American buys?
Gasoline, Health Insurance costs and coverage, Groceries are a majority of outgoing expenses in our households. How does the increase in these prices compare to what we are saving with the GOP tax cuts? Why doesn't anyone address this?
And what about exporting jobs overseas? If these big companies take away our jobs , how do they expect us to buy their products?
If companies pay low wages to illegal immigrants and refuse to pay competitive wages to legal citizens, how do they expect us to buy their products?

Neither because the system we have in the United States caters to special interest groups, lobbyists and big business. It is a system rife with graft, corruption, bribery, reckless spending, outrageous accounting practices, an abbysmal example of decades of poor management. We are a country in denial an out of control capitalistic machine.

Neither, The company I used to work for in the 90's went to China during the Clinton years. So don't blame just the Republicans for that. Health insurance is out of sight during the Bush years, but I believe part of that comes from the sue me for Millions if you spill coffee on yourself philosophy. Doctors malpractice insurance costs more per year than most Americans houses. May be if the two sides got together and really tried to help America things would get better. The extreme left wants a basically socialist system, the extreme right wants to do nothing. I have to admit of the two, I will take the do nothing crowd over the socialist platform as the lesser of two evils. I qualified for disability years ago from severe back and neck injuries, I work for my living as I do not want you paying for me. I guess they call that pride, or maybe self esteem. If the Liberal party gets in power and starts increasing welfare again, I will admit rather than work and pay someone to sit at home who is not hurt just lazy, I will quit and let you pay my way too.
And as for Europe I could care less what a continent that is totally disfunctional, has astandard of living in most of their countries that makes our poor look rich, could think of us. Sorry they need to fix their problems and they have alot

Probably Bush and the Republicans. This, however, is the problem and not the answer. A healthy community has a government which supports all sections of the community. In that respect the Democrats would be more suitable.
If you Americans have any pride in your nation and care about the way you are viewed by the rest of the world you should dump the Republicans who are hated and laughed at by most Europeans.

Frankly lykovetos, we Americans are caring less and less everyday what the Europeans are thinking. I know that hurts, but guess what... oh well.
The GOP is more supportive of the MiddleClass in America.
Sometimes being supportive is requiring *more* self reliance.

Political parties are merely an ILLUSION, because THIS secret and evil group has been in control of everything for far too long!...
