the 1%ers have it all,and are fighting like crazy to hoard it for their selfish selfs,after making it off the 99ers backs.
here we have a saying:"work is not work...it's a way of life!"

Yep,
Thats a fact on standard of living. I had more purchasing power 50 years ago than I do today.
Part of it is union wages on product cost and unions are a small part of the population.
Then taxation in all forms are another problem.
The rich have more wealth because they can cover those needs easier than lower income individuals.
It would take an in depth reasearch to trace all the facts of lower purchasing power.

I only used those two examples from been there and here now.

yes,and in the next election it'll be the 99ers up against the fabulously wealthy 1%ers.can they buy an election,we hope not.

No, stupid, it won't be 99% against 1%.
The 53%ers of that 99% can't stand the lazy 47%ers who don't pay taxes.
The 53%ers (the taxpayers) stand together against the 47%ers (the loser slugs).
Wake up, dummy.

Intersting you would post this, bobbya, since Obama has spent more than all previous presidents.

Part of the wealth went towards the obamas vacations.

This is from Mark Knoller of CBS

The pilots and crew of Air Force One are flying more hours than a rookie on a beer run.

They are tired of it too, and are adding more crew to Air Force-1, - I know this for a fact because I'm one of the instructors that trains the crews. Our company (Atlas Air) has had the Air Force-1 and E-4 contract for over three years and I've been doing it for about 18 months now.

Last year (2011) Obama flew in Air Force One 172 times, almost every other day. White House officials have been telling reporters in recent days that the Democrat doesn't intend to hang around the White House quite so much in 2012.They explain he wants to get out more around the country because, as everyone knows, that midterm election shellacking had nothing to do with his health care bill, over-spending or other policies, and everything to do with Obama's not adequately explaining himself to his countrymen and women.

And with only 288 days remaining in Obama's never ending presidential campaign, the incumbent's travel pace will not likely slacken. At an Air Force-estimated cost of   $181,757 per flight   HOUR   (not to mention the additional travel costs of Marine One, Secret Service, logistics and local police overtime), that's a lot of frequent flier dollars going into Obama's carbon footprint.

$8 Million every time it lands & takes off.

We are privy to some of these numbers thanks to CBS' Mark Knoller, a bearded national treasure trove of presidential stats. According to Knoller's copious notes, during the last year, Obama made 65 domestic trips over 104 days, and six trips to eight countries over 22 days. Not counting six vacation trips over 32 days. He took 196 helicopter trips, signed 203 pieces of legislation and squeezed in 29 rounds of left-handed golf.

Obama last year gave 491 speeches, remarks or statements. That's more talking than goes on in some entire families, at least from fatherly mouths. In fact, even including the 24 days of 2010 that we never saw Obama in public, his speaking works out to about one official utterance every 11 waking hours. Aides indicate the "Real Good Talker" believes we need more.

Related: Obama spends nearly half his presidency outside Washington , plans to travel more.

Related: Vacationer-in-Chief Spends $1.75 Million to Visit Hawaiian Chums .

Obama has spent over $100 million taxpayer dollars flying around in Air Force One, and probably another $100 million on his entourage.

Obama is just another tin-pot dictator living lavishly at the expense of his subjects.

And we seniors have to "tighten our belts"

THANKS TO ALL WHO HELPED PUT THIS GREEDY WINDBAG IN OFFICE!   PLEASE BE MORE CAREFUL NEXT TIME!

Remember two years without any COLA for retiress and disabled people?
You can have you 'vacationer' in chief.

So Mr.Romney's home cost 600,000. He did this as private citizen nothing out of yours or mine pocket.
If you can afford it, go for it.. He's not President YET>>>!

What Coin-toss has pointed out is the monies your potus has spent of yours, mine, and everybody else for his use. Why are you coming back with something about Mr. Romney, when it's all about Barry and what he's done.?

Dorkio's just jealous of anybody who's been successful in life because he's been such a failure.

CoinToss,of course,is a huge Liar who posts others talking points and obtains manufactured stats that can't be backed up with facts.
He doesn't know that Hawaii is where President Obama is from like Dumbya Bush being from Texas where he spent almost a third of his Presidency of 8 years with 1/3 total on vacation.
President Obama can't come close to that record or even Saint Ronnie of Reagan's vacation time.
President Obama has spent less per year than Bush,Clinton,Bush,Reagan.
Yes.President Obama does spend a lot of time doing the peoples work.
Doing the peoples work cost a lot of money and because of it Coin Toss and People Like Him are upset about it after 20 of the last 33 years of Republican Presidents spending the peoples money on the top 1% instead of the bottom 99% like President Obama.
Coin Toss should spend all that obvious spare time he has on his hands researching the Dumbya Bush 8 years of disaster where he blew a 900 billion surplus and then doubled the national debt in just 8 years despite being on vacation for more than 21/2 years of the 8.
Here's to you Coin Toss AND People Like You
4 MORE YEARS! 4 MORE YEARS! 4 MORE YEARS! 4 MORE YEARS! 4 MORE YEARS!

For proof of Coin Toss's LIES!
Simply Google Atlas Air and Air Force One
It will take you to factcheck.org for the whole Lie actually started in 2009!
Isn't Coin Toss a complete moron to even figure that his word for word post came directly from a chain email would not be checked?
Of course the right-wingers wouldn't because it fits their dreams and fantasies where A LIE.NO MATTER WHAT,IF REPEATED OFTEN ENOUGH,BECOMES THE TRUTH.
It's in their Nazi Handbook!

Booby,
Since when is playing golf with his white fatcat friends "doing the people's business"?
And how come he never has rallies in the ghetto, so people like jan-jan can see him?

Well bobbya, we've been through this before. Typical liberal knee jerk, if you can't counter it or refute it call it a lie.

Want to talk about Obama's 65 limousine entourage when he went to the Vatican?

Obama's been on more vacations in three years than other preidents for their full term.


Here you go, bobbya, this one's for you - and I wonder where you fit in.

CHINESE PROVERB ORIGINAL: Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.

2012 UPDATED VERSION: Give a man a welfare check, a free cell phone with free monthly minutes, cash for clunker autos, food stamps, section 8 housing, free contraceptives, Medicaid, a hundred weeks+ of unemployment checks, a forty ounce malt liquor, access to drugs, and designer Air Jordan shoes, and he will vote Democrat for a lifetime.

PS,
When you and yours are medically and financially being taken care of by obamacare may you never face an obama death panel - which are made up not of doctors, by the way, but just more of his non-qulaified 'appointes'.

Golf Foxtrot Yankee, bobbya.

The entitlement society took the wealth, People who have opted out for free and easy, fueled by a governnment who can easily control these masses, borrow and spend.
Massive inflation directly caused by those who no longer wish to produce.
