You only answered four of my questions. Is that because you can't defend them or I'm right? You literally posted in a thread within the last two weeks commenting on how racist the south was and that racism was everywhere. You cannot deny this has been one of the most divisive presidents of all time. I'm plenty awake man, I don't watch MSM, I get my info from Drudge and a few others. Race relations especially in large inner cities are worse than when he took over.
Job market is not better, labor force participation rate is down over 4% since 2008. Also for the first time there are more employees working less than 35 hours a week vs employees working more than 35.
You're right on obamacare.
My point on the Trayvon thing was he exploits situations and manipulates them to fit his narrative. That blacks are targeted more than whites, it was an inciting statement. He did the same thing with Feurguson. However he can't take two minutes out of his busy day to call a parent that had a child murdered by an illegal that was out of prison after 2 violent crime arrests. That's heartless. The young mans name was Jamiel Shaw. And there are several others that have been murdered by illegals, that have been arrested and released, you don't see a problem there? He wants to open the borders, that's lunacy, he won't even address the issues of releasing arrested and convicted illegals back into the country vs deporting them.
Not only is this country in worse shape, the world is as well. And we have some fault in that as well.
We'll have to agree to disagree. The country is In far better shape than 2008 and any economic measure will support that.
Obviously we view society through two different viewpoints and let whatever biases we have affect our thoughts on it. Neither of us are objective. There is way more opportunities for me, my family, and friends now than there were. I'm not even going to begin to list what use to have to be endured as a minority that one does not have to deal with anymore. Racism exists for sure. Everywhere. I did post a couple weeks back that more "unprofessional" things are said in southeast work settings and on these message boards. And? That doesn't mean that improvements haven't been made. And you were probably one of many who disagreed with me then, but conveniently decides to use it now. I'm a bi-racial minority so my viewpoint on racism is probably much different than yours.You must not remember the racial tension that existed during other presidencies. FEMA/Katrina, results of 9/11, Duke rape case, etc are just a few on many that happened during Bush's reign. Even Clinton who was considered as being on the forefront of race relations had plenty of things that happened during his regime in the 90s. All of a sudden now, our president is causing racial tension. Lol.
Unemployment was at almost 8% in 2008. It's under 6% now. That's a fact. Obamacare (which we agree on) is a huge driver of the PT % Increasing. Companies are having to pay more for healthcare so choosing to hire less FT is the way a lot of companies are going. I making hiring decisions across the nation all the time and have for the last decade. The job market is way more robust now. It is getting more difficult to hold onto talent bc then can constantly find higher salaries by job hopping. That was not the case prior to the last few years.
He manipulated no one with Trayvon or Ferguson. Those were tragic events that were not handled correctly. If there was the same public outrage around the people who were murdered by the illegals, he would've addressed as well. Unfortunately Trayvon type situations happens all the time. Illegals and legals murder all the time. Public officials don't address them all.
He doesn't want to open the borders to any one. You know that's not factually accurate.
