Is there a way out? -Walter Williams

[Doubletap]

According to a recent Fox News poll, 73 percent of Americans are dissatisfied with the direction of the country, up 20 points from 2012. Americans sense that there's a lot going wrong in our nation, but most don't have a clue about the true nature of our problem. If they had a clue, most would have little stomach for what would be necessary to arrest our national decline. Let's look at it.

"73 percent of Americans are dissatisfied with the direction of the country" overwhelmingly because of the far right reactionaries and the TPM's unAmerican attempts to non-govern.

FOX, eh? Surprising that even FOX does not like Obama ... who'd-a-thunk-it?

Edit: I was wrong to bash the source.

I agree - disatification with all politicians, everywhere.

From the OP's link:

Let’s look at a few of these entitlements. More than 40 percent of federal spending is for entitlements for the elderly in the forms of Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, housing and other assistance programs. The Office of Management and Budget calculates that total entitlement spending comes to about 62 percent of federal spending.
Military spending totals 19 percent of federal spending. By the way, putting those two figures into historical perspective demonstrates the success we’ve had becoming a handout nation.
In 1962, military expenditures were almost 50 percent of the federal budget, and entitlement spending was a mere 31 percent.

The Congressional Budget Office estimates that entitlement spending will consume all federal tax revenue by 2048.

Everyone is ignoring that in 35 years, entitlement spending will take all of the tax revenue! Everyone is ignoring that except the much hated Tea Party "radicals"! Or should we say the Tea Party "Realists!"

We HAVE to cut back!

 

[JakeStarkey]

Entitlement spending needs to be reformed.

DoD needs to be radically slashed.

Tax loopholes need to be closed.

And parties need to stop trying to take government by coup d'état shut downs and debt ceiling crashes.

Reactionaries! You want to run government. Then win national elections.

Would you dismiss a variety of polls about Obama's popularity just as stupidly and cavalierly?
