Re: WHO COULD HELP THE MIDDLE CLASS MORE?
Ron Paul would have fixed things quickly by slashing military and letting other countries handle their own shit. Over half of our cuntry's budget goes to genocide. Half.

Finland spends half its budget on education. They have more PHD's than anyone and each kid speaks 6 languages fluently.

Re: WHO COULD HELP THE MIDDLE CLASS MORE?
Well, Obama has had four years to help the middle class, and it's only gotten worse. Hell, even his own VP said the middle class has been buried. Obama's own mouth said that "We don't need to build more highways out in the suburbs." Which class is that taking a shot at?

Paraphrasing Huckabee: If I had $10,000 to invest, would I get a better return if I gave it to Obama or Romney?

But to clarify: There are better options than these two.

interesting, almost 40% still drinkin' the kool-aid.
It is, to me, sad how fast people forget the FOUNDATIONS of our fine country! This country was built by an armed population capable of fending for themselves, and will be lost by couches full of potato-sheeple riding their 52" HD-LEDTV's into the orwellian sunset. :(

Balance the books, wipe out the gambling debts, protect depositers, fair trade, fair taxes, accountability, ethical competent leadership, our own monetary system, that's all we really need, we don't need wealth redistribution, we need to level the playing field and let the best win instead of enabling and working (and voting) for the real losers, i.e,. entitlement crowds (something for nothing) both top and bottom. Get rid of the parasites, and get out of the way of the truly productive. This is just a partial list, but not means complete, just off top of head.

Some more: Quit war mongering in other countries, quit trying to be Rome, cut off the Chinese, bring our manufacturing back to this country, enact tough immigration reform, protect our land/resources/people. We have a lot of resources in America, plenty to trade freely with other countries, we don't need the top screwing other countries for us to survive, we don't need the latest gadgets or tennis shoes in return for losing employment here, we really don't need their CRAP. The bankers/global corps. are loving it though.

Which Candidate can help the struggling middle class more?

I know Liberals say Romney will only help the Rich.

Conservatives think Obama will only help the poor through redistribution.

Who can and will help the middle class more, and why?
 Quoting: *Heisenberg*


neither.


democrats cater to the lower income & disadvantaged.
republicans cater to the upper income & corporations.

middle class gets screwed with either candidate.

this is why it makes NO SENSE to have a 2 party system for such a large country.

2 parties do not represent the will of the people.

middle class has this choice:

submit your taxes to aid non-working people who are jobless.
OR
submit your taxes to aid corporations to send jobs overseas.

Re: WHO COULD HELP THE MIDDLE CLASS MORE?
The middle class will always struggle, that's why its called the middle class.

So in a nutshell I have to say there is too much grey area to fill in. Not to accuse you of being vague.


That said I say Romney, he understands that a strong economy is a strong nation. I just don't think the empty chair gets it.
