Questions for Obama

Here are some very interesting questions that the media SHOULD be asking the incumbent in the
White House.  I don't expect them to do so...they've been carrying water for so long, that really, no one expects them to do so...

If the economy is getting better, then why does median household income keep declining? Overall, median household income in the United States has declined by a total of 6.8% since December 2007 once you account for inflation.
If the economy is getting better, then why has the number of Americans living below the poverty line increased by 10 million since 2006?

If the economy is getting better, then why is the average age of a vehicle in America now sitting at an all-time high?

If the economy is getting better, then why are 19 percent of all American men between the ages of 25 and 34 living with their parents?

If the economy is getting better, then why does the number of "long-term unemployed workers" stay so high? When Barack Obama first took office, the number of "long-term unemployed workers" in the United States was approximately 2.6 million. Today, that number is sitting at 5.6 million.

 I'd love to see the media asking Mr. Obama this stuff.  But it won't happen.  The GOP presidential candidates won't ask either.  The only one who did, has targeted by the GOP Establishment figuratively crucified in the court of the media.
