33. That's fine
But guess what? The Repubs(Or Powers that Be) crashed the system, and all they're talking about is more ways to siphon off money from people while more jobs disappear in a continuing vicious cycle.

I was out of work for 9 months last year(laid off right before the inauguration) and only barely got back to work because someone I knew had a position available for $9.50/hour barely 30 hours. I was almost making more on unemployment.

President Obama needs to be aggressively getting people back to work so that the consumption cycle(70% of our economy) can get back on track. No Jobs = lowered demand for goods/services = lower sales = layoffs/firings, rinse and repeat.

So on top of this, Our agent of hope and change is giving handouts to the people who CAUSED this in the hopes that they will fix it and won't do it again(Is that what he's really hoping?).

Too many people are pleading "Patience" or "It's only been ___ time." IMO, we don't HAVE time. This is KILLING people. And they're finding more ways to kill us in the meantime and get fat off of it.
