US Post Office Stamp Prices

Another sign the economy has tanked in the last seven years is how frequently stamp prices would go up. Remember the days when stamp prices didn't go up every year or six months?

The Rich Create Jobs

If this were true, we would have the most wonderful employment figures ever and the middle class would be doing great because the last seven years has created an explosion of these supposedly job-creating rich people. The key word in trickle down economics is trickle. You can't pay for expensive healthcare, energy, food, mortgage and gas with a trickle.

Failing Economy

When you weaken the middle class you weaken the economy. A country skewed toward helping only the rich tends to shaft everyone else. Then the experts are surprised by the tanking economy. Of course GM is tanking, nobody has the money to buy their cars.
