Also, could you, TX, advise which Bush-era laws nearly ruined the country?

Okay, let's say you're making $8.00 an hour and you have to drive eighty miles a day roundtrip to work.  Now if you are paying $4.00 to $5.00 dollars per gallon to drive something like an older model Cadillac to work and paying $20.00 each week out of your paycheck for company health insurance (that won't even pay for a colonoscopy, bloodwork, and a ct scan when you need it) combined with other bills your $8.00 an hour isn't going to go very far.

 

Now you could say move closer to work.  But what if the cheapest apartment you can get in that city costs over $400.00 a month because they want to keep the riffraff from surrounding counties from living there, then how are you supposed to eat for that month?

 

Obama's plan is supposed to be to get everybody free health care which should allieviate having to pay for company healthplans that won't cover jack.  And since foreigners like Obama more than Bush (and Obama isn't trying to help his rich oil buddies get richer), then you haven't seen gas cost over $3.00 since Obama has been in office.
