    Everything is going up. Bought groceries yesterday and was shocked at price increases on all of it.

    1. New taxes and rising costs due to Obamacare must be passed on to consumers.

    2. Fed is printing money like crazy to cover spending and inflation is really starting to kick in.

    The economy is deep in the tank and many people don't know it, yet. But they will. It's going to get much, much worse.

    And Obama will still get away with blaming Bush. He is the Teflon President.

    You are mistaken the economy is better than ever.

    George Stephanapolis and Mat Lauer said so on the NEWS and they are objective journalist who only report the facts.

    Have you had your morning Koolaide??
    No??? I bet that is why you are seeing things all wrong

    The stock market is almost at a record high. The wealthy seem to be cashing in. The rest of us are screwed. Most big companies now have the upper hand with pay, no pensions, no job security, you name it. Yes it will get worse for the middle class of which I would say most on this board are. Just wait until all these voting Mexican are freed and millions more cross over and are freed. You think you are screwed now, a minimum wage job will sound good and it will be a production job were you are watched by a camera and if you look up you are fired.

    I would say the largest wealth of those stocks are controlled by a very small percentage.

    Although Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) "Teflon" tape is traditionally 'White' in color...
    It's Carbon - Fluorine basis comes out dark when adhered to a substrate such as cookware...
    So calling Oblamma "Teflon" would be quite accurate... In that it seems we can't get rid of him...
    And he sheds anything and everything thrown at him...

    Yep... Teflon... [;)]
