Obama’s Economy Hits The Dinner Table

President Obama is busy attempting to make this election about small things and ridiculous distractions, but no matter what, Americans cannot escape the harsh realities of the Obama economy. Even a trip to the grocery store has become more difficult for struggling families.
To help illustrate this, consider Julia, the fictional character created by the Obama campaign.

Let’s say Julia goes shopping. She buys the groceries she purchases regularly—produce middle-class Americans might obtain on any given trip to the store. White bread, ground beef, red apples, beans, flour, turkey, and so on.

As it happens, Julia has a receipt from just before Obama took office for the same items. Same groceries, pre-Obama. What does she find? She’s now paying higher prices. There’s been a nearly 15 percent increase since Mr. Obama took office.

  1. That is correct. EVERYTHING is more expensive. It is a direct result of too much legislation and regulation and taxes on business.

    Cut the taxes and the price to consumers will be more agreeable. It's something democrats and liberals just don't seem to get.

  2. As population increases and resources struggle to keep up, should we expect costs to decrease? It's easy to point fingers, it is more of a challenge to work together to find alternative solutions to such complex issues.
