In my case, the evidence is overwhelming. I'm much better off.
My real estate investments did well, my portfolio more than doubled in that time, my health insurance is less than a third of what is was, and is much better.
Is the country better off? Wall St is up, military deployments are down, unemployment is down, the number of uinsured is down.
Obviously there are some down points,as well but the bottom line is
I'd much rather relive 2009-2012 than 2001-2004.
If Clinton will be a third Obama term, sign me up.
The down points are corruption and open borders to name a few. Also you list some positives, but you dont have any frame of reference that what you have would have been the same or better if, hypothetically speaking, trump was president over the last 7.5 years. "WE" are suggesting that times change and the old saying is very true, if you're not improving, you're getting worse. You're suggesting to 'stay the same' which isn't good enough for most of us in the greatest country on earth. We are interested in positive change, there's a lot of things that could be fixed while not hurting anything that you already have.
