I would gladly have given back mine if I thought it would give back what it killed. It sure didnt carry over to this year. As middle-class homeowner with kids they keep saying I should be getting wonderul improvements but this appears to be a horrible year.

I dunno, seems to be working to me. Seems we have the fastest economic growth in the Last 20 years.
Really? I keep hearing that but all I see are lack of jobs, lack of services, and lack of feeling like things are going well. I dont tend to vote one way or the other but Im having trouble figuring out why this is supposed to be better than the Last guys term. I keep hearing it but personally it doesnt feel that way. And everyone I talk to seem to be in the same boat. Even the ones that agree with whats being said seem to not have any of those benefits in their own lives. They say things like "well of course personally things arent going well but the country is doing much better"
