Also cops and firemen are your heroes, and teachers should be too. Actually, it was also easy to help them as they're gov't jobs. GM and CFA were also easy as they're so huge. Your GOP heroes that started the GD mess would have allowed another full blown great depression. Thank god the Dems got in quick this time, and all the other socialist modern countries this time. The GOP is a gd disgrace, dupe.
Dumbocrats never do anything without an ulterior motive. Yeah, it looks good we're helping union construction crews, union government workers, union teachers........ But the real real reason is because DumBama wanted to use our tax dollars for a payback, and to insure that union money continues flowing to the DNC in the future.
Character assassination is not politics, dupe. How the hell did you want them to stop the corrupt GOP meltdown? Give cash to truckers? IT WORKED. Except in dupeworld, of course...
You can't bring a country of 315 million people out of a recession by catering to your group of voters. You have to bring money across the board.
When fracking lowered the price of fuel, everybody got a savings; some into the hundreds of dollars a month.
Companies saved thousands or tens of thousands a year. Workers saved hundreds. It was new money everybody had.
So people took that new money to repay debts, buy new things, invest. That was the key to getting out of the slump we were in, and it was by no help from Democrats who until today, protest against fracking.
