More Failure from Obamanomics … 5.4 Million Join Disability Rolls Under Obama
Barack Obama, what a legacy … The Rise of the Nanny State as more and more Americans become dependent on government.
Thanks to Barack Obama’s economic policies and Obamanomics a record number of Americans find themselves on food stamps and disability. A record number 5.4 million workers and their dependents have signed up to collect federal disability checks since President Obama took office. UNREAL. American workers have given up looking for jobs, exhaust their unemployment benefits and then sign up for federal disabilities.
A record 5.4 million workers and their dependents have signed up to collect federal disability checks since President Obama took office, according to the latest official government data, as discouraged workers increasingly give up looking for jobs and take advantage of the federal program.

Obamanomics Epic Fail … CBO States Food Stamp Rolls Explode By 70%
From the CBO comes the following, Barack Obama, The Food Stamp President …
The Congressional Budget Office said Thursday that 45 million people in 2011 received Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits, a 70% increase from 2007. It said the number of people receiving the benefits, commonly known as food stamps, would continue growing until 2014.
Spending for the program, not including administrative costs, rose to $72 billion in 2011, up from $30 billion four years earlier. The CBO projected that one in seven U.S. residents received food stamps last year.
Good grief, is it any wonder why Barack Obama is trying to divide and deflect as a political strategy for 2012 reelection? If he actually ran on his record he would be rode out of town on a rail. What a pathetic weak recovery due to nothing more than the policies and socialist Obama agenda.
