You are 100% right: In 4 years Obama has not addressed any of that and it all has continued with no slowdown.

Dude...where did you get those numbers? You are WAY off.

I'm showing that the govt. spends FIVE HUNDRED BILLION a year. That's a half a trillion dollars a year on welfare.
And I just read a liberal guy crunching those numbers down to make them look better.
He squished it down to "only" 191 billion a year in actual money and services handed out to the poor.
