But millions working for some rich people means to be governed by them anyway.
The 47% remark never won him any fan's either.
Obamas re-election means this work can continue and while its true that his policies have not been popular and I would go as far as to suggest that some could of been handled differently, the end goal is not to line the pockets of his cronies but to set the country up to pull itself out of the mire that it finds itself in.
I have to say that I admire a person that heralds in unpopular policies and has a vision that the future of his country will be brighter because of it and the benefactors will be the children and grandchildren of everybody in the U.S.
JMHO
I seem to remember that he fought Tooth and Claw to get the Job!
Wonder whom he will blame for the next four years!?
Anyway, the bitter lessons are useful, it s just always bad for the ones who are aware and have to suffer because of the majority (and in this case it s a very slight majority)...
Obama won Illinois because of Chicago... most of the rest of the counties were won by Romney. In Pennsylvania the story was the same... Philadelphia won the state for Obama.
Basically, urban voters voted Democrat. Rural voters seemed to vote Republican.
I heard that $6 billion was spent by the industry of politics for this election.
One key difference is that a politician from the Democrat party would look at this spending and call it an economic boost. It is... but one of the least effective. You see, there's no secondary market. The money is spent and after yesterday, no product remains. There isn't a secondary market in that industry. Nothing lasting was created. All jobs created by it were temporary. All physical products created are now worthless.
Sweetie - I'm not sad. I'm happy that the process worked. If the Republican party is going to be more successful, they need to show they are "for" the people who struggle (the ones who really do and the ones who are stuck in the (services) system for any reason).
Also - many of the 47% who don't pay income tax are retirees (like my mother). Retirement income is taxed differently than regular income from a job.
We have a budget problem coming up next month (debt limit), so in this regard, I'm glad the President will have to live with whatever solution gets passed.
We'll be okay...
