I'm personally not proud to be a Republican. The Republicans have allowed freedom to be thrown under the bus. Unless the Republican party is willing to organize behind a clearly defined platform for the future good of America then they will continue to fail at the polls.

Demographics have changed. A new generation has never had to suffer enough to care about freedom from tyrannical governments or to have pride in themselves enough to never want a free ride. That suffering is coming. We will probably see a good fifteen years of neo-socialism ruling America. We will probably see a foreign power rise so fiercely as to try to take over our land by force. There will likely be another great war. The children of those who fight that war if won will again be able to enjoy fifty years of prosperity. Until then we will be in decline.

I think G.W. Bush and the Republicans did much harm to America and the rest of the world and that is why billions of people are happy with the win of Obama and the Democrats . Republicans have NOTHING to be proud of .

Respectfully, where have you been for the last 40+ years? These have not been years of prosperity for most. It has been a farce. Most of us have indentured ourselves to the credit industry. We have come to idealize greed and conspicuous consumption. While I don't disagree that the next ? years will be tough, it will be up to us to change the destiny of this country for the better. Not one President, not one Congress, but each and every one of us. I believe it can be done. I hope you can come to believe in it too. flowerforyou

Where do you get your information from? The Michael Moore encyclopedia?

In the U.S. since 1968:

Life expectancy has increased from 69 years to 78.

Americans today actually work less hours to bring home more goods.

In 1968 it was not uncommon for many American households to have only one car.

Today even most "poor" households have two or more cars, multiple televisions, computers, cell phones, internet access, DVD players, game consoles, and digital cameras.

I will acknowledge your attempt to insult me with a reference to Michael Moore, I don't find Mr. Moore offensive and I believe I lean on common sense to guide my opinions. Please look around. The truly poor don't have those things as Winx said and the middle class owes credit card companies out the wazhoo for them. And, the upper class either owns the manufacturing, sale, or financing, etc. of them. Our elderly are out living the meager money they have managed to save, or more often comes from the sale of the family home.
Your personal experience may have been better than that, but the figures you quote don't mean a whole lot to the average American.
The average American family has approx. $8000 in credit card debt. That does not include a house payment, car payment, medical expenses. Those of us who are affected by this have to wake up from false sense of prosperity. That's the only way the economy can survive, in my opinion.

Have a pleasant evening,
Nan
