BACK TO THE ECONOMY

White House economists may say that the "Great Recession" ended in 2009. But here's a fact they won't ballyhoo about:  the Census Bureau showed that the median income for American households in 2009 – the official end of the Great Recession – was $52,195 (in 2011 dollars), while the median income dipped to $50,054 last year, falling 4.1 percent over two years.  

Who's to blame for the economic mess we're in?  In this case... we ARE to blame.  We should have been paying closer attention to what was going on with our lousy Congress and our hopeless Presidents... (Note, I said "Presidents").   Are you ready to step up to the plate?
