While I have compassion for hard working people that just haven't made it due to one reason or another, I do believe that people make their own sucesses. Todays crop of wanna have it now, spend our way to financial freedom, and no personal responsibility voters will definately vote Obama. His brand of sucess it easy, "redistribute the wealth". Hand outs instead of hand ups. Lets take the easy way out.

The US has too many people that believe that on $25,000 a year they can drive a new car, have a $300K house and take expensive vacations. All because they want it NOW.
Can't wait, gotta have that new tattoo, jewelry, TV, .....

Bring on a little personal responsibility. If you cannot make a life better where you live, MOVE. If you need a bit of education, get some. If you have to get up before 9AM to find a job, do it. We have gone through over 20 people this summer that could not show up, could not show up and function, could not practice safety. Good pay for entry level position. Most (not all) of them had Obama on the back of their newer vehicles. Too bad that they cannot afford the gas to drive to vote and are too lazy to ride the bus or walk (if they can put down their Playstation long enough).

If you blame the housing market on conservative values, you may want to read up on what conservative values are. I qualify for twice the home loan that I currently have. Does that mean that I need to buy a $700K or more home? Nope.

When McCain was asked about his quantity of homes, were you unhappy that he could not immediately count them in his head? I was hoping that he had more. I want someone that is sucessful in the White House.

The US tax code may lean a bit here and there. It may favor the rich. IMO - It also favors the poor. Earned income credit is one such program.

You can sit there and blame the rich for your plight in life or you can get out and try to
make it. Or you can vote Obama and hope he fills your bank account.

This is not France.

This is my reality. It may not coincide with yours.
