Riles me up just thinking about how much we have lost in the past 3.5 years under the current follower in charge.

Not everything in that video falls on Obama... At least with regard to the tax code, the issue of regulations piling up has been around since WWII, and got another boost in the middle of Reagan's term:

Unfortunately, even though the trends have been greatly accelerated under Obama, the behaviors highlighted are decades old.

It will take a major movement to turn the ship around.

And that was nearly doubled in 1995 under Bill Clinton.

Shared through email and FB...I know its not much, but if it gets just a FEW more folks to the polls this November, then it was time well spent.

Do not forget that shipping manufacturing jobs to China and IT and High-tech jobs to India is killing the US jobs big time. Where is that in the video message?

Huh? <goes back to look at the chart> Oh, oops, you're right... I was off by a line. My point though was that expanding regulations is not exclusive to the democrats (though they may have a stronger natural inclination to do so).

Thanks, TAM. Too bad we can't make watching this two or three times a requirement before going to the polls in November.

I think that federal elections should be rescheduled to April 16th. People should have to vote while the sting of what of they've just had to undergo is still fresh in their minds.
