i don’t know how to tell you this.. but there is a lot that was Bush’s fault.
I don’t blame him because he was a republican but because his administration’s policies came pretty close to tanking our economy.. and might yet.
There was a lot that was Reagan’s fault as well… and had you been a small business owner during his trickle down economics.. you would be well aware of the economic effect of his policies…
That said.. there is a great deal that Clinton has to answer for as well…
but it’s amazing to me how well conservatives overlook the economic prosperity of the middle class and the downturn in the deficit during his turn at the helm.
as for the homeless… It’s all well and good to assume that every homeless person has a family that will take care of them.. but that hasn’t ever been true and is less so these days when so many families are struggling themselves to stay afloat.
Every day as a disabled person i am reminded the only difference between me and many of the homeless is that i am lucky enough to have one heck of a support system.
while i suppose it could be said that i have earned my husband’s and family’s love and support… and there would be some truth to that… i have to be honest and point out that i have simply lucked out… my actual disability income by itself wouldn’t even support the luxury of living in my car.
