Another first. The hits just keep coming under this guy.

Increasing the minimum wage will go a long way in alleviating the trend, but who is for and against the same......hmmmmmmm. Not cutting food stamps will go a long way in alleviating the trend, but who is for and against the same.......hmmmmmmm. Increasing revenues to pay for restoration of our infrastructure, job credits, and investment in manufacturing means jobs and a path from poverty, but who is for or against the same......hmmmmmm.

President Obama is the solution for poverty, but who is against the same.

Simply clueless but loves speaking in generalities. Increase the minimum wage to what Oat? And then that person still wont be able to buy a new car because the price of the car will rise to compensate for the increase in labor costs. Not cutting food stamps? Another government program that oppresses minorities ....lets spend that money to teach them a trade. investing in manufacturing? Now that's a joke...NAFTA and othe trade treaties put U.S manufacturing jobs on the chopping block many moons ago. In case you don know, we're a "would you like fries with that" country now.

Nonsense. The failure of regeanomics can be corrected. The starting point is the tax code and increasing revenues. This is not rocket science. Economic policies which fostered poverty and the loss of middle class America are correctable. The people of this country will take back from the Oligarchy what has been stolen.
