Executive order 13603

Signed in March of 2012, Gary. You're a little late to the party.
 
Yawn...

Maybe check some sources other than just right wing? The order calls for a continuation of policies that were put in place by Truman. I didn't see mention of that in the piece. In fact, I didn't really see any facts in the article, just propaganda bullshit.
 
And one simply further Left than the other.

While we're at it, Socialism in the US actually began during Teddy Roosevelt's presidency. While Woodrow Wilson, one of the top five worst US presidents ever, created the Federal Reserve and the personal Income Tax (which started out at a mere three percent and a one-page tax return!). Creeping along to FDR, who stretched the Depression out to fill his political aims, and whose "social programs" were the beginning of the current multi-trillion-dollar-debt welfare state we are today.

So, yeah, you are correct, it DID start over a hundred years ago. So-called "progressives" are nothing more than re-distributors of wealth. Legal thieves of Americans' wealth, labor, and property; all to benefit the all-powerful Federal government. The current occupier of government housing at 1600 is simply accelerating that pace to a phenomenal, and in the end, destructive end game.

That is FACT, not opinion, not hearsay, not "right-wing" propaganda. Just plain old FACT.

Teddy understood the threat and had the balls to stand up to corporate interests. Unique at a time when most politicians were in corporate pockets. Nothing has really changed. Just ask the farmers under Monsanto's thumb...

All I know is my wallet is definitely lighter than it was just five or six years ago. A lot lighter. That's the bottom line.

Just a suggestion. Perhaps it would be profitable for you to really examine why you are poorer than you were 5 or 6 years ago rather than just place blame on Obama. Wall Street banks and the mortgage industry along with all the politicians taking their money for their campaigns (along with the Supreme Court that says corporations are people) have rigged the system in favor of the rich, and congress will not put any restraints on these big banks and corporations. And the rich just keep feeding Fox News so you will hate Obama and blame him. He isn't really the big problem, and even though I do not agree with everything he does, the problem is Congress, particularly the House where they obstruct Obama's efforts to restrict the big banks every time, and refuse to do anything that would help the middle class (like pay a fair minimum wage where if a person works hard for a 40 hour week, he shouldn't live in poverty - but the House blocked that too). You can keep complaining and blaming Obama, but we are getting hosed, and so many here on this Board keep supporting those who are really to blame, and finding it easy and convenient to blame Obama. That is just self destructive. This president deserves our support a whole lot more than he is getting. And so the banks continue to use our money (not theirs) to make risky ventures that pose a real threat of another bubble that is going to break again. And the rich continue to pour money into campaigns designed to influence the electorate in their favor with glossy mail with all the platitudes of that they think voters want to hear, all the while their owned politicians care nothing about the middle class. If you really want change, then you have to spend the time to look at the voting records of the politicians running in your District and then vote. But rather than spend the time doing that, it is easier to just blame Obama while we keep going down................... You can't solve a problem that you don't understand.
