[QUOTE="Meat, post: 4655431, member: 61324"] Five of the last seven presidential administrations based their campaigns on populist politics (the exception being Bush Jr.). Taking this into consideration, why isn’t the middle-class doing better. For instance, the incumbent is truly a man of the people, and his policy measures undoubtedly reflect that. And yet, during his presidency, wages have only increased by approximately one percent in real terms. What gives? And wasn’t Obama going to “Change” things? I’m extremely patriotic, and have a lot of faith in the electoral process, but I’m beginning to think there may not be much difference between the two parties on matters of economics. Oh well. Social issues are pretty important, too...I guess. [/QUOTE]
