And i guess your going to blame it all on obama? he didnt get us in this mess, it was the past presidents using quick fixes for the economy and not thinking long term, now obama just got stuck with a screwed economy and everyone is expecting a quick fix from him,

Clinton's signing of NAFTA helped get us into this mess. Oh wait, Bush signed it for him right? :eyeroll:

Obama is taking a step in the direction of helping to bring the economy down even more with him letting the EPA run wild with the coal industry. The Corp. of Engineers had it going just fine, but Lisa Jackson and the EPA are a joke of an organization. At the rate things are going now blackouts, unbelievably high levels on unemployment, etc. are soon approaching us a nation. We will being paying the insanely high utility bills (that includes you environmentalist's too). If you don't think so, then you might want to do a little research on the coal industry and understand how it powers this nation. If you would like, I can provide it for you. I'll throw a few things out there. Nearly the whole state of West Virginia, Eastern Kentucky, and Virginia depend on coal for many more jobs than just mining. The EPA is about to take down the coal industry like they want so badly, they WILL pay for it. No question about it, but so will us who understand the coal industry and America's economy. We all will pay, literally.

You might want to start doing a little research.
