Also, let us not forget it was Right Wing policy that created this economic mess and near-ruin of America with the de-regulation of Wall Street and the Banking Industry and their then unchecked greed as policy. 
The Right tried to blame an intiative to make buying a house by slightly reducing the prerequisites. Seeing the enormous profit in bundling mortgages, the banks on their own recklessly and drastically reduced those prerequisites and ship it off. 
By these careless acts of pandering to the rich, a million or more hard-working people were made destitute and in need of assistance: doesn't the country owe them that much?
The Right is steadily destroying America as we knew it for nothing more than profit, a new social darwinism that treats an unfair advantage of money and privilage in the same way gangs fed on the defenseless, proud of their unfair tactics.
