OP looks like a propaganda point from Faux News. Where were you over the past 30 years when our rights, programs for middle class, workplace safety, were being diluted, taken away, plundered?

There has been a 30 year war against the people of the United States by right wing corporate thugs, including the "sainted" devil, Reagan, GHW "CIA" Bush, DMC corporatist Clinton, and the rotten punks of the Dumbya administration. What makes you think that Obama can fix everything they broke in less than a year?

If you make an effort, you  will see many, many good things he's done already, starting with the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2009, and then averting a global economic meltdown. How about the $2 billion for broadband announced today? Going to the Copenhagen climate summit?

The health insurance legislation going through Congress right now is more than has been done in 60 years. There are good things and bad things in it. I'd rather see Medicare for all and banning for-profit insurance companies from receiving any federal money. I'd like to see fewer restrictions for women's health care. But in case you haven't noticed, the Republicans have filibustered or tried to add poison pills to every bill the Democrats have been working on in the current session. That's hundreds of filibusters--continual obstruction. 

We may not get everything we want, but we do need a bill to pass and get signed. Social Security and Medicare are ongoing projects, having been refined many times over the years. Health insurance reform will be refined too, but only if your voice is heard in Congress. Tell your representatives and senators what you want in the bill. Phone, send letters [snail mail letters are noticed more than cookie-cutter emails], emails, make yourself heard. Then do it again.

Stop complaining and act!
