There are over 100,000 idle youth in each of our major cities....approximately 6 million in the 16 to 24-year-old age group that are not in school and not working either....violence is beginning to rear its ugly head....
Meanwhile Obama and Administration tell us that unemployment is declining and that there are job opportunities for everyone.....what a crock.....this chart says it all:
So the notion that we are experiencing an "employment recovery" is absolutely laughable.
The fact that government dependence has soared to all-time highs even in the midst of this so-called "economic recovery" is just another sign that the middle class is dying.
Congress is voting today on whether or not to extend unemployment benefits...but what is being done to address the real problem....to help create new jobs.....? Nothing as far as i can tell....in fact just the opposite....
Is this growing dependency and growing unrest actually what Obama was shooting for in the first place....? To be sure this is certainly 'transforming' America....

In America today, there are close to 50 million people living in poverty and there are more than 100 million people that get money from the federal government every month. As the middle class disintegrates, poverty is climbing to unprecedented levels. Even though the stock market has been setting record high after record high, the amount of anger and frustration boiling just under the surface in our nation grows with each passing day.
And now extended unemployment benefits have been cut off for 1.3 million unemployed Americans, and it is being projected that a total of 5 million unemployed Americans will lose their benefits by the end of 2014. In addition, as I have written about previously, 47 million Americans recently had their food stamp benefits reduced. The conditions for a "perfect storm" are certainly being created. So how much longer will it be until we see all of this anger and frustration boil over in the streets of our major cities? Is America about to reach a breaking point?
