    Considering the stagnant, or declining, wages since then in the private sector, they would be right.

    Well, I was referring more to the eating scraps, having to sell drugs and distributing to their children, etc.

    Actually up until 2008/2009 wages were climbing. In fact, the LOWEST average hourly wage under Bush was higher than all but the absolute highest rate under President Clinton, and wages have stagnated since Obama took over.

    This is from the BLS.
    I long for the days when our President actually liked our country.
