Hmmmmmmmmmmm. A little over one year ago:

1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high;
2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon;
3) the unemployment rate was 4.5%.

Since voting in a Democratic Congress in 2006 we're seen:
1) Consumer confidence plummet;
2) the cost of regular gasoline soar to over $3 a gallon;
3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase);
4) American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate
(stock and mutual fund losses);
5) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $1.2 trillion dollars;
6) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.

  America voted for change in 2006, and we got it!

lol, the change in the economy doesn't have anything to do with democrat or republican. I t has to do with "buildin your house on sand" instead of buildin it on a rock.Too much credit with nothin solid underneath it. Too much outsourcing because it's cheaper,too big salaries for the top dogs, too much corporate greed with no restraint(think oil companies here), too much"I can't afford this, oh wait I have a credit card!" But that's just my opinion and opinions are like buttholes, everybody has one and they tend to vary lol
