Speaking up here ...

Those figures can be had, but, without addressing war costs in particular, my current studies relate to what is happening now, as result of (non-military) 'policies' and actions of the last 12 years, and to an extent, the last 30 years, more generally.

AND, all the complete ideological horse manure behind it.

There were 111 million jobs in 2000, there are 111 million jobs available today, in the last part of 2012.

Real median income (i. e., adjusted for inflation, or, in 'constant dollars'), has DECLINED ~ 4% from 2000 to 2008.

SO THEN ...

The grades on the 'great experiment' in massive deregulation, and utterly irresponsible tax cuts to the wealthiest, those 'job creators,' are now on the front door of the professor's office, for all to see.

MASSIVE FAIL!

Not even the university system, not even Standard & Poors, nor Moody's Investors, has a grade or rating such as FFF, but that is the only proper and imminently fair grade to assign to the unconscionably idiotic pseudo-ideology foisted upon the country, as manifestation of which we are now beset (probably more accurately said as 'besot') with.

PS

To make tweakabelle and Kirata happy ...

" ... of which with we are now beset."

Thank you, thank you, etc.

Leftists are good at running their mouths; not much else. Their hero o'dumbo never even ran a lemonade stand and they think he is wonderful.

But all the press had to say was 'peanut farmer,' at the most (im)propitious time, and Carter was toast.

Jimmy Carter made a good bit more money as peanut farmer than Reagan ever did by producing anything of value to society (not a fair competition, being that Reagan never produced ONE single item of value ever in his whole life), but you are quite correct in stating that Reagan had the best lemonade stand of all, that of his being a barker for Boraxo soap.

It is the truth, that Obama never reached that high level, any such accomplishment of being a Boraxo salesman, on national TV, no less.

Actions/inactions and consequences. Let the chips fall. More poor people out of work. How many BILLIONS were spent on the war on poverty? What good did it do? REALLY. Poverty level even higher.

The poverty level increases in every Republican administration, as does the incarceration rate. Sometimes, the result of this idiocy even spills over for years into the next administration, poverty, unemployment, the whole lot.

Glad you are paying attention.
