Does Detroit show us what is in store for Us under a Democrat?

They are called roof sitters. They are the people who know the storm is coming and wait for someone to come and save them. After the storm hits these are the people who sit on the roof and wait for someone to come and save them. Once the flood waters have receded they will sit and wait for someone to come and clean up. After all that is what we have taught them with the War on Poverty and the Great Society. Don't do anything for the Government will take care of you. So they sit there and keep voting the way they are told and wait for the government to take care of them.

I'm sorry but I still don't understand. I might never understand. I was not raised to sit by and wait for assistance. I, and all my siblings, were taught to work hard and earn what we have. It may not be as much as what Donald Trump has but we were all taught to work for a living - not sit and wait for the government to "rescue" us. So is this something that is taught? Is it a mentality just for Democrats?

What you were taught used to be considered the American Dream. Now it seen=ms that we are told to look to the government and not to ourselves to improve our lives. Keep working hard and it will pay off. At least you can hold you head up high knowing that you are not a leach living off others.

How many times have we heard this only to be told that it is not their fault that we the rich working people are to blame by such greats as Rev. Jackson or Rev. Sharpton or some brillant liberal like Rep Rangle or Speaker Pelosi.

I have forwarded the article to my friends even those few who voted for President Obama.

You failed tomention the Labor Unions as part of the problem. I see the Auto Companies producing cares that people do not want to buy but theya re forced to produce because of the government pressure. The switch to Unleaded cars took ten years and I don't know how many millions of dollars to complete. How much research and development money was spoent trying to meet all the governmnet regulations and at time conflicting. It is not so much the political party it is the tax and spend that is killing us and both parties are guilty.

Bob, one of things that no one remembers is the fact that Bush increased the amount of money a company could write off for vehicle expenses back in his first term. This is why you see so many $50,000 + SUV's and luxuary cars on the road. Now, these companies are struggling to get by, or have closed their doors, and no one can afford these vehicles (I actually saw a top of the line SUV that was the same price as a top of the line Corvette). That wasn't the Union's fault, that was the company, and the governments.
