We bought into the liberal ******** that Obama and the rest of America was cramming down our throats and blowing up our *** at the time. 

Obama "cash for clunkers" program was the start of insane car pricing from MFG's. 

And on inflation, lookup CPI, can't just go by "offical" inflation rate thanks to Obama era policy change that says things like increase in, well 1/2 of everything, dosn't matter for inflation.......

Obama doubled the national debt in the 8 years he was in office.

That's when Obama did a special extension on unemployment for the "crash" victims and I was able to keep feeding my kids a little longer.All in all, I learned a lot about living on a budget, not living above my means and it was humbling.
