If anyone ever wanted to see the results of Ronald Reagan’s “Trickle Down Theory”, here it is. Companies have stressed profits over people for years now and this is what happens. Where are all the jobs that were supposed to have been created by corporations being allowed to amass obscene profits? All it’s done is obliterate the middle class.

Tim Lucas, YOU NAILED IT. YOU NAILED IT. Why is it a schock that Americans are on food stamps, when the elite in this nation have sold off all heavy industry, are vigorously writing bills to facilitate, insourcing of–teachers, nurses, engineers, and even hotel industry workers like maids. That is correct, some of the traitors we have in office have allowed H2-B visas to import foreign labor.

The only thing I disagree with you on Tim, is that the left has a hidden agenda. They aren’t hiding it at all. They want the displacement of the American citizenry with labor from the third world–just as the Republicans do. Traitors to the taxpaying citizenry–ALL OF THEM.

I’d be interested to see a match-up of this graphic with who was president at the time. My guess is that the spikes are during republican administrations.

Many are on food stamps because of choices made that were hardly in the interest of the American people. To run up a big debt was not in our interest and alot of blame rest upon the American people for the voting choices they have made. The press in this country have been of no benefit what so ever by saturation and un-yielding run-off coverage of the canidate that they supported, for the republican party. They have sold this country out to have a socialist or communist view of how this country would look and are completely in the tank for Obama while we burn to the ground with hatred from the left. There was a template after Jimmy Carter, formed by Ronald Regan that allowed us to recover but was completely ignored by the left that has a hidden agenda. Things will come to pass as they should, never mind the correct answers and the should of’s. But tell me for the record, what God would grant one soul, let alone 76 virgin souls, for one mans gradification?

I have come to the conclusion that you would let them all die. 35 million is more than the total population of Canada!!!For shame on you, sure we have homeless people. and out of work people here but they are on the street because they don’t want to toe the line like the hard working tax-payers do. You won’t find anyone denied health care here.

So much for people growing their own food. With about a million people per week moving into the cities of the planet it’s all about corporatization. Luckily other nations are willing to prop up our dollars to keep this ponzi scheme going.
