QUESTIONS FOR REPUBLICANS
ARE YOU A MEMBER OF A PARTY WHICH SINCE 1980

THAT in 8 years created 31,000 net new jobs or lowest number since Hoover
THAT gave us the Housing Debacle
THAT gave us the Financial Tsunami
THAT Fought extension of Umployment Benefits in your horrid Recession
THAT Fought increases in the Minimum Wage which, today, covers just two thirds of Poverty level for a family of four.
THAT pushed to extend the Bush Tax Cut for top 2% who, from 2001 to 2009, got 67% of Income growth. 90% got 10% increase. Who, from 1980 to 2009, had a 281% increase in Income while Middle Class had a 25% increase which was below inflation. Who own close to 50% of Total Financial Wealth whilc 80% or 120,000,000 teachers, policemen, office workers, factory workers
own a measly 7% for a Third World distribution of Wealth
THAT pushed a bill in 1999 to repeal Glass Steagall which has since your Great Depression had kept Local Commerical banking separate from Wall Street Investment House Gambling. Yes! Once again you transferred Wealth from Local control (deja vu your S&L) to Wall Street Rich. Today, you celebrate the ownership of 80% of bank deposits by a few Rich on Wall Street.
THAT pushed the 2000 Financial Modernization Bill which freed Derivative Gambling from regulators. You created a plethora of new before unheard techniques for Gambling
You created the new Casino Derivative Of America.
You sucked rich investors money from stocks with assets and value added.
In eight years you created 31,000 new jobs per month which , before 2000 Law was 237,000 per month. Wonder why unemployment is 9%? Thanks.
THAT you increased Federal Spending by 100% in 8 years.

THAT, since 1980, with three of your so called Conservative Presidents, took a Carter Budget of 600B and turned it into a 3600B budget (less Clinton itsy bitsy part)
THAT took a Carter Debt of under 1000B (after 200 years) and added on 9000 Billion.
THAT took a Carter creation of 218,000 net new jobs per month and in 20 years of three presidents reduced it to 99,000 per month. Just enough to cover new entries into the work force.
THAT three of your presidents , since 1980, got us involved in 8 international conflicts which killed millions of innocent people. Look shamed. You are. Jesus weeps.
