#2 I have a prediction:

1 Things will suck until the housing market stabilizes and 70% of home owners aren't under water

2 Things will suck while food and energy costs rise

3 Things will suck until we have the population working again

4 Things will suck until we deal with our debt

Therefore, based off the list above things will fucking suck for quite a while.

Two years after President Barack Obama signed the Democrats $787 billion stimulus debacle into law, voters are reminded that liberal U.S. Senator Jon Tester (D-MT) has failed to create the jobs he promised.

The Obama White House projected that their massive stimulus spending would cap national unemployment at 8 percent, and Tester promised Montanans that the bill would [create] millions of new jobs, calling it a jobs bill and a a big victory for middle-class folks in Montana.
