US President Obama is pushing forward plans to double the country's exports in the next five years. The move, that could generate two million jobs, comes amid hopes that the country is finally pulling out of the depths of recession. But with the number of Americans facing poverty at a 50-year high, millions are still fighting for survival. RT's Lauren Lyster reports from New Jersey about the everyday hardship that Americans must face.

  • Wow it is almost as if the American government has orchestrated the decline.

    Now with the citizens in dire need the ability to control in line with the elite agenda will be easier.

    Just look at what happens to democratically elected governments that do not fall into line with Washington, if the economic hit men cannot bring them in line then a coupe is created or the elected are assassinated.

    Would it be any different with American citizens, they mean nothing to the corporate oligarchy.

  • Just to think that my childhood classmates made fun of the Roman, Ottoman, & Persian empires which lasted centuries. Will the USA even survive a third?
