Amazing how Barry and company want to justify and lay claim to anything that can be spun as positive, but under HIS watch, this is true, yet they take no blame:
"They're right, but the number of poor people and low-income households has continued to rise as well. According to the Census Bureau, there are 2.9 million more poor individuals today than in 2009, and three million more households with incomes under $25,000."
HMMM... Once again it appears your loosy-lefty propaganda amounts to nothing more than big gov't bullshit. Might it be that your so-called 'pro-government ideology' is actually harming more Americans than it helps? ...Unless, of course, if such was the whole idea in the first place. You know...'give them just enough to make them lose all interest in being productive and wanting to do better, make them beholden and feel entitled and hopeless, & they'll rise up & do yer dirty work for ya'.
