appraisal of our (The USA's) situation in September, 2012 .
And as I do so, I want to point out that this is why the Democrat Parrty and its nominee moved from a70,000 caqpacity Stadium to a 19,000 indoor venue for the Zero Speech.

Now, Here is Reg Grant:
Here is what I think. Right now our economy is down. It’s been down and is staying down. This keeps our countries’ revenues down.
Obama and his crew have done very little-to-nothing to get our economy growing.
Yet Obama and his crew have been busy with all sorts of social programs – ObamaCare being the leading one, but there are many more. And we are borrowing money to fund these programs at record amounts. This as we all know is financially imprudent. Bailing out General Motors so it could produce electri cars (The Volt) that had a 30-mile-per-recharge capacity is another "fr-instance". ( GM has canceled the Volt.)
When you have been in charge of budgets – whether a business or a family budget – you pay attention to getting your income up. And you pay for your necessities, then you go and buy luxuries – and that part of your income is called Discretionary income.
Many of these government entitlements are really "civic luxuries", but Obama and his gang are selling them as necessities. Yet they have not paid any attention to reducing them or realistically increasing revenue acroos the board.
Don’t we need to put the horse in front of the cart? I believe Romney will do this. We know that Obama will not do this since we now have a 4 year record to "prove" that assumption.
