The job rut did not start under Obama, and he has actually done a decent job of reversing the dismal course W left us with. which didn't start with W either.
As long as Obama, the Republicans, and the Democrats in elected office, are allowed to prioritize the interests of billionaires, big oil, and big pharma, and war mongers OVER the interests of the American people, this is the world we live in.
Why don't any of the "news" reporters ask people like John Boehner why they are allowed to invest in all of the companies that stand to make a killing off of the Keystone Pipeline, while simultaneously spewing out lies about how it will benefit regular Americans?
When major "news" corporations take advertiser money from Big Oil, Gas, and Coal, can they really dole out UNBIASED information regarding alternative energy solutions?
I'm happy to debate and argue, but to debate and argue amongst ourselves only serves to deflect blame from the true leaders of the world, who give not a shit, about you and me.

So what you're saying you want "change" I remember someone promising that!
In the mean time, the CBO is blaming the ACA for a reduced workforce, something that has been getting smaller and smaller since 2000. The current administration has done nothing to fix that, it is in no way a good thing for our economy or our tax base. If the population is growing and the workforce is getting smaller, our economy is going to suffer.
Which is why the outlook for our economy is bad!

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
