We were already broke..before Obama. However, do you homework people. Before Bush, our wonderful Clinton had us in the black. Then comes your precious Bush,oh how wonderful, he broke us not Obama. Obama has a tough job cleaning up after your great president. SO quit blaming the new guy..he was handed this mess. Grow up people, be responsible for your own mess and own up to the fact your president did this not Obama. By the way, I am not on welfare, we work hard, and hey isn't the cornerstone of sucess hard work. Those that are crying are the ones that have always had things handed to them, or are to lazy to make a difference in their own lives. Its about time some one looks after the middle class working man or woman.
