Dude, I don't know where you got those alleged "statistics", but there are two problems with them. 1. The price of gasoline per gallon was not under $2 when President Obama took office in January 2009. The price was roughly what it is now, if not higher. 2. Correlation does not equal causation. (P.S. No, I am not a political supporter of President Obama.) |

The only ones that really stuck out were the debt and debt per person and food stamp recipients. And I was living in New Mexico at the time Obama was elected gas was under $2 a gallon.
