Whatever, 'Hoovervilles' were the Republican's alternative to FDR's Social Security Program, just like 'get charity or die,' is the republicant's answer to real health care reform. If you think any huge majority is going to forget who is truly responsible for the economic predicament we are in, than you are going to be sorely let down. However, if you are right, and we do get Palin/Beck 2012, this country will get everything it deserves.

I remember reading about the so-called "Hoovervilles" of homeless people during the great depression, so is this a sign of how bad things really are getting?

People have been living in tents since the Bush administration, since the economy collapsed under his watch so i find it strange they blame Obama for the existence of tent cities. While it is his responsibility now to turn help to fix it in his term, this blame of the cause over the existence of these tent cities is misguided.
