Brehs, how was your quality of life under Obama as compared to under Trump?

[Born2BKing]

I'm talking financially, family wise, socially, etc.

For myself, I find myself more involved in politics and I see how big the divide is in this country under Trump. Under Obama I was very proud of my country and for once really felt good being an American. Financially I've been better off under Trump so far. That goes for the job market, taxes, my salary, etc. I got audited 3 times when Obama was in office lol.

Regardless of who’s in office the opposing side will feel like it’s the end of the world. When Obama won all the right wingers acted like it was doomsday, when trump won the left acted like the world was over and slavery was coming back, they still do.


My income drastically increased, that was going to happen regardless of who was in office.

Slightly fatter pay check under Trump thanks to the tax cut, but was much prouder of my president. ACA allowed me to stay on my parent's insurance plan for longer.

 

[Ineedmoney504]

Same. Was never proud of this country.

Still going to keep grinding regardless who is president. As long as the job market doesn't tank i will be okay.

White people are at lot more racist and or open about it now. Tax refunds are a lot lower. Stocks seem to fluctuate a lot more. Black folks seem less unified

other than that everything seems the same.

 

[Booker T Garvey]

The same.

Obama: Personally, felt a sense of hope and possibility.

now?

 

[EndDomination]

The same.
Considering my QOL would probably be the same under Charles Taylor, that's not saying much.
I've always been heavily involved in local and state politics, so nothing is new.

 

[Pure Water]

The same. These crackers just more open about their racism. But pretty much the same.

too early to tell.

a lot of the good things obama did for the economy are still helping out as far as unemployment, jobs, etc.

i think that gop tax cut is going to take a lot of people by surprise (not in a good way) once tax return season gets in full swing. the long term impact to the deficit will be worse.

the republicans environmental irresponsibility will also cause long term damage.

we won't see the impact of some of this stuff until his second term and once he's out of office. same thing happened when bush left and obama stepped into a steaming pile of shyt his first day on the job.

 

[Real]

Same financially.

fukk trump

 

[MJ Truth]

Th president/government actually has a lot less to do with your personal life than people give credit (really blame) to, in my experience.

 

[OG Talk]

Financially, spiritually and physically I’ve been better under Trump. Much better than I was under Obama.

But this has more to do with me growing and maturing as a man and making better decisions, and nothing to do with who is in the White House.


Which is the point I want to get more of my brothers to comprehend.

 

[semicko82]

Same. Was never proud of this country.
