That's the only thing you'll accept?
Fuck you, you aren't calling the shots, boy.
If you make an argument this big, you have to back it up - and of course, you can't. I can't refute it, or back it up, either. Nobody has that data.

Would you just accept a smear against Obama, that couldn't be backed up? Of course not.

Don't be such a hypocrite, and try harder to stay civil. Of course I call the shots on what I will accept as a fact. You do the same for yourself.

A bank will not give me a loan based on that "assumption", but it's ok for our entire nation's economic well-being?

Edit: A second article:

Basically, you assume unrealistic job growth or you change the definition of the middle class...
I did read those posts and the articles at the links, but none of them do what you say they do. I'd like to see your cite, or better yet, just explain to me how he can do all those things he said he's gonna do. Because,

Not a smear when the fact that it happened is well documented.
A fifth grader can figure out if you grab a business and suck the life out of it until it goes belly up, people are out of work. The people suffer, the families suffer, the community suffers, because some predatory millionaires/billionaires need more money? No, they don't need money, it's just a blood sport.

Oh, and stop telling me what the fuck to do, I'm not one of you Morman sheep.
