Is this the Bottom? 31.8 Million on Food Stamps; 8.1% Unemployment

[btwall60]

Ok, anyone who wants to raise taxes on the "millionaires" is a dope and here's why, simply, THE RICH CAN MOVE OUT OF THE STATE THEY ARE IN. Did you get that? Loud and clear? They did the raise taxes/rich in Maryland a few years back&half of them moved 2 another State. Plus, Obama goes after Rush because O can't take anyone making an idiot out of him by telling the truth. O has his surrogates doing his work 4 him today cause Newt told the truth 47MILLION folks on FOOD STAMPS Y Mr. Obama why?

[jmata146]

you can apply food stamps clothes

and house just call the advocates the number 212-7700

[moralesq123]

are you fucken gay nigger!!

[btwall60]

@moralesq123

Why don't you pay attention to the man, you might learn something.

[anyname666]

Damn ! Demcad..

I was ready to jump all over your butt given the title of this vid. But YOU are one sensible guy. For a youngster you have kind of got it down. This is the first vid of yours that I have watched but you seem to GET IT. Stay in politics and you will go far. Raising taxes on the ones that make the country move is not the answer.

If you want to banter via message rather than in the comment box let me know. I would enjoy exchanging ideas.

[mcs32jr1968]

Excellent vid DEMCAD..Anyone ever consider that perhaps the economy may be DAMAGED BEYOND REPAIR? Perhaps we need an entirely new way of exchanging goods and services. I think traditional "cures" to faltering economies (tax breaks, cash infusion, etc) are not going to work this time. What are we going to do? By the way, I am currently unemployed in Los Angeles, like carlawon calls it "the belly of the beast." Excellent description. It is terrible here.

[moodyarts]

Thanks for your videos. I am so glad you got out of Flint. I will feel sorry for anyone in a densely populated urban area, when things really hit bottom!

[carlawon]

wow you are in alaska? lucky man..im in los angeles ca.. the belly of the beast.. im scared to death.. i worry about my gf going to work... wish i could move. quick

[MainTightSqueeze]

8.1 is a super-conservative gov't figure. REAL unemployment, today on March 26, is probably more like 15 - 18 %. UNDERemployment is also an overlooked problem.

[NAGGERNUTZ]

Obama himself says that unemployment will probably go over 10% by 2010. It just boggles my mind how anyone can still support him.

[ccbabb]

it's not his fault, it's bush's. it's realistic of him to recognize that.

[NAGGERNUTZ]

I'd really like to know just how much longer the liberal left can keep bashing Bush and accept Obama for what he is, an economic imbecile. Bushes hands were tied by a democratic controlled house and senate since 2006. Unemployment under Bush was 4.4%. After democrats took control of the house and senate, unemployment started to skyrocket. Let's get real and accept that we made a grave mistake.

[ccbabb]

Obama's hardly been in office 90 days, how can you blame the economic crisis, which started over a year ago, on his administration? you can't cut taxes repeatedly, push a costly war, and expect not to pay for it. republicans in congress admit that they were irresponsible, i don't think there's any doubt about who's to blame

[NAGGERNUTZ]

You're absolutely correct. The economic crisis did start over a year ago. Under a democratic controlled house and senate. Bush's hand were tied. Please go to the bureau of labor statistics for the numbers. Also, you fail to mention, Iraq was the only U.S. war started under a republican administration. WWII, Korea, Vietnam were started under democrats. Republicans admit that they were irresponsible for not monitoring the situation more closely, not for causing it. See Barney Frank, Chris Dodd...

[randont]

I'm conservative and I think Bush should be tried for treason and hanged. Don't make this a rep/dem thing cause it's not. Obama is Bush on steroids.

[NAGGERNUTZ]

I agree that Bush overspent, but to say that he should be tried for treason and hanged is just a bit extreme. Bush's reasons for invading Iraq were strategic. With Iran developing nukes, we'll soon see that he did the right thing. Israel just this week told Obama that either the U.S. strikes Iran or Israel will. Imagine either one making a move against Iran with Saddam still in power. If Obama keeps a soft stance, we'll end up paying dearly. Israel could trigger WWIII if we don't intervene.

[randont]

They're on the same team. Jessie Ventura said they're like pro wrestlers, in front of the crowd its all fight, but behind the scenes they shake hands and are best buds. These guys are as crooked as they come. It's all about the new world order and a one world gov't.

[davedianarichards]

Good Vid, great message, glad I found you!

[torpedodropkick]

socialism is coming

[moodyarts]

At this rate, if you weren't on welfare before, you will be sooner or later.

[xa123xx]

Great insights.

[MadameGarnet]

having said that, somewhere in the eighties, the ME generation TOOK OVER because they got tired of not having fun with tons of money. the next generation(X) loved the money and being spoiled and don't even know who their neighbors are. why bother?...besides "they might want something!" God forbid some poor neighbor from that other side of the tracks dare knock on your door to use the phone! right? it's times like this we pull together. and the ones who do that...will be the sure survivers.

[MadameGarnet]

we will reach the bottom when things get like they were here in Tennessee in 1975. the v.nam war had ended and suddenly noone could get a job. people started turning to each other and family. and most of us here began to really turn to God in a very real and down to earth way. from worshipping money and success in the sixties to worshipping God and caring for family with nothing but love in the seventies. sure we struggled but we became better human beings. this is not a lie.

[Revgirl5]

go Demcad!

great vid

[sootch00]

You rock Bro! Thanks for the Video.

[quicktripgas]

YES this is the bottom. Jim Kramer told me so.

[NoesisNRG]

How difficult was it to move that far? Do you have family or friends in Alaska?

[bartruys]

50.000 people protested in NY? Wow!!!!!

That is some news but not even mentioned here in Europe (Netherlands). Thanx for sharing!

[TheOriginalEAGLE]

Good vid, man. God bless ya, and hang in there, we're in for a long ride.

[TheOriginalEAGLE]

And that obama thing spent 175 MILLION TAXPAYER DOLLARS on it's inauguration shindig. It is going to make sure this country falls, so the NWO can start the north american union, which they are already minting "money" for, and then will go toward a one-world government and religion. This is it, folks, it WILL NOT get better.obama is right, it will get worse before getting better. It will get better when THE LORD comes and MAKES it better.

[TuggBoatAnne]

Obama wants to give people jobs, dufus. Here is a clue -- without government spending, our economy is going to get much worse. Better learn some history - and not that "crap" history Rush Limbaugh feeds his idiot fans.

[TheOriginalEAGLE]

obama doesn't care about giving anyone any jobs. obama cares about everyone praising him and remaining asleep. It knows how bad things are going to get, and wants it to, so they can institute a new system, namely the 'north american union'. They are already minting the currency. You can bet it's going to get worse. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate obama, it would have been the same with McCain or anyone else, I hate the NWO.

May God bless this country and it's loyal citizens.

[TuggBoatAnne]

Rush Limbaugh has sold hate to stupid people for a long time. Stupid people eat his crap up. Why? Because he gives stupid people what they really want -- someone to hate, someone to blame.

[TuggBoatAnne]

Wrong. This is just getting started. Our economy has been a house of cards for a long time. We punished real work, real production, and we rewarded bullshit. So we got a lot of bullshit. Our tax code rewarded con games in the stock market -- leverage buy outs, naked shorts, for example. It had to collapse, and now it is. We need balance -- we need to reward work and production. People who got their income from work were taxed 200-300% higher. Lets stop that crap.

[walkerazcarpenter]

No, unfortunately we have a long way to fall. That is why we were told emphatically that it will get worse before it gets better. The last eight years put us fo far back we won't be turned around completely for about 5 years. That is what the economists told the supply side supporters seven years ago. Rich people don't care. It won't effect them. The rest of us are expected to live on credit until we get another magic tax break. I don't know about you, but I can't spend a tax break.

[walkerazcarpenter]

Did you actually ask why Obama is targeting Rush Limbaugh. News Flash, Rush Limbaugh came on the news and said he wants Obama to fail. that means we all fail. HE ATTACKED OBAMA, not the other way around. Rush is now considered the Republican Leader even though their leader is RNC chairman, Michael Steele wussed out and couldn't stand up to Rush. Despite the fact that he is just a radio announcer crackpot he is still considered their leader, which is sad, but they have no one left.

[walkerazcarpenter]

they just don't want to use the word "depression" . It is reaganology. "Just tell them everything is OK and don't answer any tough specific questions." A flat tax has been threatened FOREVER.

[dave777blaster]

No this is not the bottom you have not even seen the worse of it.

Americans will be in the third world in the later part of the summer.

by then the unemployment ,welfare and pension will cease to exist.

the banks are penny stocks the rich are not going to be investing in the economy they are waiting for the bottom so they can buy it all up for pennies on the $

by September Americans will tremble in their boots

stop

[ProserpinaFC]

"Have we hit the bottom?" is the new "Are we there yet?"

[Elli3babi3]

You would be surprised who watches this kinda stuff on YouTube!

I'm a teenage girl,and I appreciated your comments.

We need more people telling us the TRUTH about life: that HS drama isn't the end of the world!

Thanks! =]

[ProserpinaFC]

*whimpers a bit*

[Stealth0031]

Hey DEMCAD, GREAT Intro!!! Keep up the good work.

I hate to add to the bad news, but Shadowstats now reports that the U-6 Unemployment rate (the way unemployment was calculated before Clinton changed it) has now reached 19.1%

Godspeed.

[BabyHominid]

You're right, man. Good thoughts.

[thefreeobserver]

Dem, Nice work on this. I have two things ThingOne - I don't believe that we are getting the straight answer in regard to the actual Unemployment numbers. I believe we ARE in the double digits now but it's being spun differently in order to delay the panic. Thing two: Judging by the speed in which the economic collapse has escalated, I think the Markets will tank even further. GM and Chrysler implode. Ford will follow soon after. Then we will have no manufacturing. Another critical hit.

[tinsnanna50]

yahoo ur back!! :)

[mannyvelo]

Here's an analogy - We're just in the 3rd inning of this mess. Wait till it gets ugly. When people have nothing left to loose that's when the revolution will begin.

[wrinkles1931]

YES...we have hit bottom..the market will rally on Monday 3000 points, Gold will collapse...the housing market will get rid of every forclosure in the next 90 days. We will pay off our government debts in the next 90 days. We will win and end the wars in the next 90 days. We will balance the budget in the next 90 days....get ready to become wealthy and prosperous...in the next 90 days....

[rollsthepaul]

The bottom will come no sooner than the end of 2010. These are the good times. There will be hunger riots. Also we are headed for some horrendous disasters of nature. Get your survival supplies, get your money out of the banks, get some gold, get at least 100 miles from the ocean. This whole mess is just getting started. Look for big changes by July and much greater deterioration by November. This is much,much more serious than most people realize.

[DEMCAD]

I agree. I think the worse is yet to come. I think hyperinflation will hit in the 3rd or 4th Quarter of 2010.

[HYDROCHARGED1]

rollsthepaul knows whats going down!!!

Fema Coffins are for a global coastal event and deaths of millions from Pole shift due on Dec 21st 2012. Pole shift will kill and decimate 95% of the worlds poputation. (DUMBS) Deep Undergraound Military Bases-will not save the elite. Top side is the only safe place. Google DUMBS and 2012 pole shift.

[yocanbanconit]

In China they're saying, "May you live in interesting times." But here in America we're a bit more direct--"THE SHIT'S HIT THE FAN!.....KATY, BAR THE DOOR!"

[theanswersofnwo]

Have we hit the bottom? Hell no!!!

[itowedin]

DEMCAD. You may have addressed this already, so I apologize if it's redundant. How do you feel about the brutal mass pessimism, (although understandable) that's being exacserbated by the fear mongering of political media. I know for one it has my boomer age parents glued to FOX news, and they themselves have built these new monolithic psychological archetypes that are every bit as hollow as the ideologies that got us here. New phrases entering the U.S. lexicon now are brooding, and forboding.

[itowedin]

RE: Hunker down or run...Through job loss I'm staying with family in Mulino Oregon. It's about as rural as it gets. I feel guilty every day for being here. I feel like I need to get back to the city ASAP and continue fighting. I don't want to run, or hunker down. I want to face something, and fight it. More often than not that something is me. I've fought, and kept my nose clean, my debt LOW, my life-style lean, yet here I am. Even though I'm re-tooling I feel guilty. Don't know why.

[sitesprocketdotcom]

I hate to say it, but this thing has only just started to unwind.

[freeland4us]

Bottom? Wait for the credit default swaps derivatives.

[Dakarah777]

THE CAMPAIGN IS OVER!!!! I like it. No where need the bottom. We've only just begun!

[Matchu80]

I'd have to say the all the signs are pointing to no. This fall shall continue for atleast another year or 2.

I'm interested to see if this stimulus package can artificially prop up the economy temporarily, though.

[twenty4hell]

NO!

[nmbypmby34]

Just tell people the bottom is 0.

[markymarkuss777]

or when the dollar collapses

[DeltaJammer2013]

start calling the bottom when the Dow hits around 1600 - 1800 range in 8 - 16 months. look at all the real data. . Man this is going to be a tough couple years.

just my honest opinion. but then again what do i know. hunker down. there is no where to go. unless you feel like being in a different nieghborhood or something like that .. then move and start networking as soon as possible. Time is short. 2 years will go by like a flash. get educated about survival in a depression.

[AllahConsciousness]

And btw, I was teased in highschool by people, but I didn't kill myself. You know what I did? I made vinegar into honey. I laughed along with their jokes. I said things to catch haters offguard like, (spoken very dramtically) "It is not me who is retarded and ugly, rather it is all mankind! Do ye not see how we are all just furless monkey creatures, aimlessly floating in space on a rock?" LOL! That made 'em think for a second.... X-D

[AllahConsciousness]

A girl really commit suicide because of a nude pic floating around school? A nude pic she took herself? O_o She thought she was escaping hell...LOL...she went from the frying pan into the blazing inferno it looks like. May God have mercy on her soul......

[BigZeb5]

learn the art of guerrilla warfare

[Docthewrench]

You know it, we are ready for the RACE/HOLY/Civil war that is coming

[BigZeb5]

im not warring with the ppl im warring against the feds dont let the race thing divide and conquer and us. i wont participate in the race war but i will defend myself

[heydanno777]

Dig the new intro. Paul Bunion!

[stjdavis]

This guy gets it!

[fishingthewatershed]

I bet you a dollar if you look out the window right now in Ketchikan, it's raining. Great fishing though. Nice thing about south east Alaska DEMCAD is that you will never starve to death. 5 stars

[dirkbag22]

Bless you -- Obama has spent more money in TWO MONTHS than Bush spent on Iraq, Afghanistan and Katrina clean up COMBINED.

The federal government can't spend us into economic growth. CAN'T DO IT.

The way you solve it is to give private investors the incentive to INVEST. Give them tax CUTS.

[Docthewrench]

NOPE he is GOD ask the fools who voted SKIN for the WIN most think this is all still BUSH doing this and its not its now ALL OBAMA doing it

[jocknomore]

Nice single stoke log split there Reginald, cool intro! Bottom 2000 Dow, 210 S&P. jberni1 a german economist with a doctorate here on youtube is calling for an April 23rd to early May financial chaos event leading to bank runs, government confiscation of wealth ie pension funds and cany type of capital.

[RetardedAdult]

I miss the open closets in the background, can you move the camera? (kidding)

[rundoetx]

No bottom yet.

[davincij15]

Nice intro. ShadowStats has unemployment at 19.1%

[evo8734]

Yes chop that wood! Lets bail out till our money is saw dust. I have worked more suicide attempts in 2009 than in the previous 8 years. (Im already at 2) population 7k [both 30 y/o women]

[gigsupusa]

Look at Obamas chief of staff, Emanuel.  you know he is getting poor advice from this clown.

[PestControl02]

NY business climate is absolutely terrible- over taxed and over regulated, we're waiting for our kids to finish high school and we're leaving.

and yea- Obama's lack of executive experience is really shining through, one terrible decision after another.

[TheAppalachiankid]

In one of my Criminology class's I learned women usually don't hang themselves. Strange.

[veritasfiles]

We have not hit the bottom. The bottom could come anytime within the next 3 weeks to 10 years, but I don't think anyone really knows. The only think that one can really know is that this is going to get very very bad and very very ugly for all Americans and possibly a good portion of the world. All I can say is to get ready for the trouble that's about to begin. Be prepared, and don't think that you can go it alone. You need a support network. Create one right now!

[popcur]

To add to that. What if another terrorist attack(false flag) happens? That could really put the country further down. Final blow?

[bennmug]

Unfortunately no, I don't think we've hit the buttom yet. I think we need to restucture the entire system from scratch and cut down the spending. Its just calapsing even more under its own weight.

[wherecorngrows]

The bottom?............a bloody summer.

[wherecorngrows]

You got it, you are a smart young man.....

[optiontrader11]

Real unemployment or the broader the measure U6 is about 18%. When we hit the bottom no one will be asking if we have hit it. We may have 30% unemployment next year, that's going to cause incredible social problems and crime in big cities. Don't believe the government number of 8,1%, that is not reality. It seems the government policy has become to kill the economy every way possible.

[jehnubis]

April 15th! Here it comes!

[hucgirl8]

Hey Demcad greetings only older girls mid 30's watchen I definitely don't think we will see the bottom until summer. Some people are still working, yet I work in healthcare and get this they are already cancelling our shifts, closing units, skimping on you guessed it your care by cutting down on the # of providers and making you and your insurance pay the full cost of improper healthcare services to the public! I'm not angry I'm livid!!! Great vid, nice new look! The Gov needs a reality check.

[aceyorba]

31.8 million on food stamps holy crap almost 10% 0F THE US POPULATION ON fs

can you say higher taxes on the way...

as goes california.. you know the rest

[jamesandhoa]

The mass job losses started in November 08 at 533000, Dec 08 ,Jan 09 and now Feb 09 " no end in sight !

[Bassmarko]

Bottom between 5500 and 4000 and this is optimistic.

Dude!! The comment at the end was priceless. Would you live in an urban environment? You moved from Flint Michigan to Alaska. Silence (not another word needed point taken) keep up the good work. Love the new intro.

[chrisarmes17]

the top 10 percent of income earners in this country pay 60 percent of this countries taxes. you tax them more and they spend less which hurts everybody. the dem's recently revoked the '96 welfare act. which means states now get more money from the federal government for putting people on welfare than finding them work. as the vlogger states correctly. you can not stimulate the economy with borrowed money without taking something out first. the current strategy of this socialistic office is wrng

[universalblak72]

Welcome back, congrats in making that move to Alaska hope it all works out for you. I am about 3 weeks into making my move out of NY for it's about to go down but not yet for its still early but with all these increases my moms in SC has been telling me about a good amount of people coming from NY have been coming to SC in droves as well as purchasing trailers/mobile homes

[rcusto1999]

Hey Man...love your show...and I agree...things are going down real fast...but wasn't it expected...I guess no more "cafe lattes" its back to "butter rolls" and coffee "light and sweet"..keep the show rolling bro!

[YourMarketingCoach]

Hey Demcad, enjoy your show...totally agree with your positions. I too have been making similar predictions and unfortunately they're coming true faster than I thought too.

[TheFlex21]

no girls are watching this, they're watching the music videos and make up videos

[sarahsgift1]

Excellent video!

[mrmorrisday]

Nice video production. Hollywood better watch out.

[NibiruMagick2012]

You mean there is a bottom?????

Hope!!! sweet, sweet hope.....lol

[beavisrulesbutthead]

glad your back

[DEMCAD]

I'm glad to be back.

[redmoonspider]

Part 2: I know you said you left for a job..but was this economy another reason.

[neanam]

I can see your girlfriend over your left shoulder in the green

[TheFlex21]

LOL

[redmoonspider]

No, we haven't hit the bottom.

I say be prepared but don't be a part in exasperating it further. A lot of the economy is the public mood. What they hear on the news from the "experts"

or you tube.

We WILL talk ourselves into one.

I don`t blame your president FOR ANY of this bullsh#t. Whats he supposed to do??...let people starve?

By the way is that one of the reasons you moved?

[cowboycarl04]

Read the article from "thehill" on your link.

If your enemies are fighting themselves, then dont get in the way, Gibbs said.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS LANGUAGE!?!?!

We are not enemies, we are Americans. What the hell is wrong with the people in power.

So you may have a few political differences, but WE ARE NOT ENEMIES.

The suicide is horrible, and you are dead right about high school. I do have 2-3 best friends, but everyone else in my life is post high school.

[qminusis]

The bottom is not even in sight !

[DEMCAD]

I agree. People are beginning to see the truth.

[mousey1952]

People getting laid off here in Nebraska are having to wait 3 months for unemployment and it's not as bad here yet as it is on the coasts

[BlackMask2012]

Freedom of Speech?

Plus it's also racial when you make cartoon making fun of Mr. Prez.

Also a note about girls, I hope they don't look up to RIhanna, she is no longer a good role model getting beat and returning for some more?

I'm stayin urban cause we all can't be in the country right? Then it won't be country any longer LOL

[vention4wh]

Ha ha ha! Woo Hooo! Yesss! I love your intro! Dude, I can't tell you how awesome that is!

Great advice to people in highschool.

Your example of moving to Alaska is worth considering.

[centervilletn]

When GE collapses we have hit the bottom...

[centervilletn]

under 3 dollars...ge has been very sound and very strong...if it goes they all go...watch ge..

[cowboycarl04]

and the banks are nationalized and GM goes chapter 11 and breaks up into smaller companies...

that will be closer to my bottom... but that's me...

I agree GE has to go as well. It will help end the corporatism in this country.

[centervilletn]

Great new intro! Ive been missing your videos!

[BrodyLuv2]

The only jobs left will be Government Jobs,Like in the old U.S.S.R,Thats when you'll know your close to the bottom.

Nice intro by the way.

[tyronebiggums3]

Have we hit a bottom?

No F***ing way.

[or97035]

good point

[tyronebiggums3]

I'll say it again, we gotta stop supporting people with welfare. Take it away and force people to find a way. What's the way... get help from friends and family, move in with them, let them support you. The government (that's us) is broke and can't support everyone.

[Nlon1]

Maybe we should nominate you. I am voting for you.

[mrzack888]

Alaska looks clean. I should move there.

[gatorfleetbm]

Great Intro....You were choppin wood like a real lumberjack. I've done alot of wood cutting in my time also. No we havent hit the bottom and when or if we do....we all better start cutting more wood!

[thirstybullet]

Hi Reggie !!!

[DEMCAD]

What's up?!

[andrefrbk]

The bottom will be 15+ percent... :D

[endlessmountain]

Hello Demcad. Thank you so much for your video

8.1%? Well, if you include those whom are not looking for work (and there are many) and you include part time workers who make under $300 per week what is the number?

I am calling a bottom however! A bottom for silver maybe

Peace and Light

Derek

[DEMCAD]

The real unemployment rate is probably closer to 16%.

[hrosemd]

Bottom?

For heaven's sake, sit-coms and cheetos are still quite plentiful.

Not even freaking close.

When you're drinking blood out of a human skull, let me know. Then we'll be close.

[Michigansnowpony]

Yup, yup, yup -- The wealthy will find ways to avoid being taxed. They aren't rich because they're stupid about such things.

About the bottom question: If you gotta ask, we ain't there yet. When the REAL bottom comes, there won't be any doubt in anyone's mind. And finally, yes Obama and company giving any attention to Rush L.'s comments is just childish. Don't they have bigger things to expend their energies on at the moment?!?!

[keepinthfaithlastday]

i missed ur vids D!that wood chopping video was classic,yea never take a nude pic,someone else other than the person u send it to ALWAYS sees it.people have to learn the hard way.soooo sad about this young girl,wow,breaks my heart!Montana is gettin hit,state workers are starting 2 worry!i was talkin too 2 of them 2day,they are scared,but still no one is talking.they dont want to face the truth,but i did tell them to get ready

[Michigansnowpony]

8.1?? I think it's double that because now, in the way they figure it, so many people simply aren't counted and/or those working part-time that want full time aren't counted either. So. . . to me, the 8.1 figure isn't accurate at all.

P.S. Hey -- love the new intro!

[elgringote3]

its a long way to the bottom

[kahunabear]

It doesn't seem that the economy is anywhere near a bottom, however, after being very bearish for a long time, I have started to accumulate some stocks for the very long term. Just dipping my toe in the water though.

[1ShaolinStyle]

Hey Reg, good to see you and nice intro. No i dont think we hit the bottom and it is going to get a lot worse. Take care

[GPmannnn]

Yay WE HIT THE BOTTOM!!!

(Sarcasm)

[tinafiedler1]

Great new intro!

Here in S. Cal, "official" unemployment is 10%- but we know it's a lot bigger than that!

I really appreciate your vids, kiddo!

[DEMCAD]

Thanks, I'm trying to stand it up!

[mrpeowpeow]

i thk its going to 12-17%
