Americans keep making less and spending more. That lifestyle is contributing to supersized debt and the decline of progressive politics.

The good life is dead.
The lovely world of a stable, thriving middle class is as dead as a door nail. Get used to the idea.
And it is gone forever.
Forever.
The beginning of the end of the American dream came twenty-seven years ago when the electorate foolishly - STUPIDLY - sent a feeble-minded, failed "B" movie actor named Ronald Reagan to the White House.
On Election Day 2000, when the stupid ******* American people sent a corrupt, hideous, half-witted little frat boy by the name of George W. Bush to the Oval Office we effectively pointed the proverbial loaded pistol at our own collective head. Four years later, on Election Day 2004 - make no mistake about it - we pulled the trigger.
It's over....
It's ******* over.

Wow, what a happy thought! I don't believe that the President will make my life either good or bad. He might make my finances smaller or larger, or give me health care, but those are all issues that I can solve myself. I personally think I have the good life. I have a beautiful little girl, a job I love, and family/friends that mean the world to me. So, my life is damn good!

I try to pull myself up by the bootstraps, but the Bush Admin keeps cutting them by allowing gas prices to run wild, which raises costs for everything else and destroys my finances.

*YAWN*
The good life?
I'm living it!
Life, love, home, two cars, lots of goodies in the house, two beautiful daughters, close family, no extended credit, paid off credit cards, insurance on all my things and family, common sense, the country I live in, great job and a telescope to look into the night sky. I'm living the good life, just try a little harder and you too can have the good life.

I seem to be having the 'good life.' I have multiple cars, homes, boats, etc. And I am not outspending my budget at all. It's all about self restraint and budgeting. You have to spend according to your income.
And Ronald Reagan was one, if not the best, President we have ever had. Google his approval numbers. They are somewhere in the 70's.

So, people living beyond their means, buying useless junk to make their lives more comfortable is the President's fault?

How small of you to blame someone other than yourself for your life's situation.
If you wish to have the Good Life, get up and go get it.

It was destroyed by the Reagan administration and their war on the middle class.
