.... when you start thinking for yourself, you could see things differently.
One year ago:
1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high; 2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon; (have to question this one?) 3) the unemployment rate was 4.5%.
Since voting in a Democratic Congress in 2006 we've seen: 1) Consumer confidence plummet; 2) the cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3 a gallon; 3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase);
4) American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate (stock and mutual fund losses); 5) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $1.2 trillion dollars; 6)1% of American homes are in foreclosure.
Coincidence? I don't think so. America voted for the change in 2006, and we got it!
