  1. NO
    food is higher
    interest rate sucks on savings/investment
    gas is $3.95
    electric rates are higher
    property tax goes higher every year even with value of home underwater
    forced to pay for others too lazy to get off their butts and get a job

  2. simple answer: no no no not near as well off. JUst about any fool can tell you that. maybe some of the millionaires and billionaires are better off, but the middle class is about gone. it is starting with the rich and the poor now days.

  3. Four years ago, I did not mind buying fuel for my vehicle. Now the fuel cost so much and the price of everything went up in price because of fuel price. So now I just sit back and live a very lean life.

  4. no. I collected unemployment for the first time in my life this summer. I was a real Obama supporter until he decided to play the amnesty card–and yes I am black.
