Which reminds me of a sig I've seen...
"All I know about the bush administration is that under Clinton I had a JOB."
The economy may be doing okay for the rich assmonkeys who have complete mobility and can abandon the sinking ship when it starts to tank, but seems to be doing very little for the increasingly marginalized 'little guy' who feels privilaged to hold down an $11/hr job after pushing himself into $30k of debt to get a degree.
Wal-Mart part timers may count as 'employed' on the charts, but it's hard to feed a family on the miserly stipend they dole out... even harder after they enforce mandatory 'contributions' to various organizations they deem worthwhile.
