We are a couple with 3 kids living in a smaller city in Wisconsin.  Our combined income is about $90K and we make a payment on a 2008 van.  Bottom line is that we are in a constant negative cashflow situation.  We don't go out, what's a vacation?, can't save a dime, utility bills thru the roof (thermostat is 69 during ...more

Wasn't it last week and there was an article about how gas will be going DOWN?  Wait till next week, there will be an article about gas dropping to record lows. The left wing press puts out this stuff to confuse us and hide the issues.  Pull the focus off of Obama and Co. and add more confusion. What I DO know is...more

Why the tributes and such?  She's like a million other stars and gazillionaires...so full of themselves and they think they're above everybody else. Yup the girl could sing but that's where it ends.  Just another life wasted away.....no tears here.

Oh sure gas is going to go down.....now I'm going to run out and buy something that I've wanted for a long time.....but wait...it's probably made in China!    or   Oh goody....this is going to make my family's financial situation SO MUCH BETTER now!!!!   Yea right!

Extending UE benefits to me does not demotivate a person to find a job.....at least a person who has a family to support.  Back in the early 80's when I was single I was happy to get laid off as the UE check ($260?) got me by with no problem.  Try supporting a family of five nowadays on $360/week .

Hmmmm....let's see: I got a 0% raise because even though we're having a good year, we must contain costs to remain competitive.  All this while the cost of living is up what....15% in the past year? So the CEO's are getting (avg) 24% raises huh?  I would have no problem siting down with any of these CEO's over a ...more

The internet and TV news is so full of garbage nowadays, but this article tops them all.  The people that write this kind of drivel are so out of touch with the real world and the real people like us that live in it.  You can add to it most people in the state and federal government.   Clueless....absolute ​ ly cl...more

Mr. Bono, Can you send me a few dollars so I can feed my family?  2Me2
