Seems to me that if you want Mom-n-Pop stores around, you support them by shopping there... I do not expect G.M. or Ford to succeed until someone buys their products, why wouldn't Uncle Sugar buy a butload of trucks from them instead of GIVING them money ? Uncle Sugar could then build some big-o wharehouses to park the thousands of new trucks in (stimulating some construction and material sales), then trickle these trucks into the free market AFTER the economy gets back on it's feet. Same could be said for other markets...sending the top guy at Weyco a few billion won't stimulate lumber nor paper market, but buy a few billion dollars worth of paper and lumber and people will be working the next day...

So far the "bail-outs" and "stimulus" looks like theft on a biblical scale...

Bush, Obama, and largely ignorant/empathetic voters all to blame.

Obama may not be able to work miracles on our economic crisis, and if so, it's likely that no one else could either. But I feel better every day knowing the GW isn't the US president any more.

You're welcome to your opinion, but can you answer: who would be a better president, and what would he or she do that would be more effective than what Obama's done?

Ron Paul would be a better president because he is for small government. Bush failed because he was pushing big government....Obama will fail even worse because he is pushing even bigger government. what i mean by this, is the government needs to keep their damn hands out of everything and let bad businesses fail, good businesses prosper.

Repeal The 17th Amendment

Posted December 19th, 2007 by SeanW

ANOTHER reason to vote for Ron Paul. And, if you understand it, a good argument to provide your friends.

Originally all Senators were elected by each State's elected officials. United States Senators were accountable to the State Governments that elected them and sent them to Washington to represent them. But the 17th Amendment changed that. Now, as we know, Senators are elected by popular vote. They no longer must answer to their own state government. And they have FAR too much power because of it.

Dr Paul, along with a few others such as Zell Miller, Alan Keyes, Harry Brown, Lew Rockwell and Neil Boortz, have advocated the repeal of the 17th Amendment for a long time.

Zell Miller introduced a constitutional amendment, just after announcing his retirement, to repeal the 17th Amendment, saying, "it gives too much power to Washington's special interests and it's an attack on federalism."

Whether Ron Paul gets elected or not, it's THESE issues that THIS MOVEMENT was born for...

Blaming any specific president, whether Reagan, Clinton, Bush, or Obama is a stupid, chickensh!t point that doesn't do anything to advance serious discussion. There's plenty of blame to go around, both left and right. If people are really serious about discussing the economy, discussion would focus on the cost of the stimulus and bailouts, who will pay both current and future costs, who will benefit, what will happen under various scenarios of public/private works projects, what should or shouldn't be done to realign the economy or economic priorities, and so on.....

It would be great if he could talk to wall street like a republican but he can't cause he's a dem, the best he can do is put in place laws that monitor the hell out of them. It would great if he could tell people to have faith, to shop, to buy stock, I would if I thought my country depended on it, what the heck it is only money & freedom is so much more valuable.

Socialism will never work in America, it would only lead to mass crime here, Americans are just not cut out to be socialists. Obama doesn't want to make us socialist, cause it would never work, he is just trying to stretch major losses over a longer period of time, that is all we need, just a little more time. He has Dr. Paul Volcker advising him, Reagan & Clintons guy, if anyone can figure this mess out Volcker is probably the best bet.

Our president has not done anything weird, odd, constraining, or hateful, he is just doing his best to buy us some time, so that we can recover...a little bit of time is all we need.


you are wrong, if he succeeds, socialism succeeds. i hope he fails hard so that America can recover. if he succeeds it would mean that his extreme leftist views would succeed...why would i want that?

So what do you call the bankers and wall street investors that took government bail out money?
Nobody forced them to take the money, so how is this the Presidents doing?
You and the rest of these "the socialists are coming", need to pull your heads out of your ass.
The fact is these same bankers and investors who promoted the "fair market" no government regulations, are now at the very trough they once scorned.
So your saying more of the same? Sorry that boat has sailed.

Re: It only took Obama 40 days to. - 03/04/09 01:50 PM

Obama, extreme leftist views???

What I see is that most of the country's resources are currently going to Wall Street, not Main Street. The people's resources are propping up the capitalists. If Obama was really launching some kind of leftist revolution, he would simply seize these companies, and turn the sources of production (and their returns) to society.

It's tough getting much production out of a bunch of pissed off (or scared) peasants, so making sure there's some kind of social safety net of the Social Democratic style, like much of Europe, could actually be in the long term interest of capitalist/wealth.

Freespool,
Don't let a bunch of pieces of you know that used thier bought and paid for pols to get what they wanted make you think capitalism does not work. This country was built on a free market and individuals pushing themselves. Remember it was free not fair as you stated. And "More of the same".......not exactly but losing our country because a select few screwed us is not an option either and that is not to say BO is attempting to do that but.......
If we give up and start punishing hard work you will get laziness. Reward laziness and you get more laziness. These bankers and investors should get what they have coming ot them and the pols that let them do it should get theirs as well. Yet we still see individuals getting reelected and now we bail them all out. Bad idea in most cases but you get put between a rock and a hard place. Cant let these giants fail but cant just bail everyone out either at our childrens and grandchildrens expense. What is the right answer.......who knows.

I'm surprised that he's managed to singlehandedly ruin our excellent economy in 40 days...I mean, it was really ripping along the day before his Inauguration.

Plus, he's been so busy scheming to take our guns away I don't see how he's had time to ruin our economy, too.

All of the "party, power, and me first!" Republicans are going to take it in the ass hard in the 2010 elections...their true colors are really showing, it's not about the good of the country, it's about the good of themselves, front, back and right down the middle.

At least Republicans like Bobby Jindal are sticking tight to their convictions...it took a lot of balls to refuse a little over 2% of the stimulus money allotted for Louisiana.

His eloquent speech almost convinced me to vote Republican.

Just kidding...I doubt it would have convinced me even if I was eight, because at age 8 I probably still would have thought he sounded like a juvenile ijit.

Hey dewbie, what is it about "socialism" that you find so scary? What's your working definition of socialism? I get the impression that what you think is socialism is a little different from what some of us think.
Posted by: Todd

Re: It only took Obama 40 days to. - 03/04/09 03:11 PM

The RWWJ's version of "socialism" means anything to the left of Pat Buchanan...and aren't likely to be able to define it without looking it up on the InterWebz first.

Remember, just because Rush and Hannity say it, doesn't mean it's so...in fact, it's more likely that it's bull$hit if either one of them says it...and listening to Rush and Hannity has almost completely supplanted actual thought and reseach on the part of most RWWJ's...it's easier to just be told what to think, and then go parrot it on a chat page.

There are also no classes. no classes would mean that we couldnt have employers because they would all be as poor as the rest of us, which would make us to rely even more heavily on the government. i dont see anything good about that.....i would prefer to live in a free country where the lazy wouldnt make the same as the people who work hard.

Dewb-

I didn't say anything about punishing them. Due to a favorable tax system, the wealthiest people in america pay less percentage wise than the middle class - that does not seem fair to me, they should at least pay as much percentage wise as anyone else. A true patriot wants to pay as much to his/her government as possible, especially in these troubled times. wink

Mr Buffett said that he was taxed at 17.7 per cent on the $46 million he made last year, without trying to avoid paying higher taxes, while his secretary, who earned $60,000, was taxed at 30 per cent.

Mike,
Have you ever read how the tax system works? Please tell me this was a joke. This is the type of crap we expect from KK backed up by some cut and paste from some obscure never disclosed lwwj internet sight past off as fact.
We have a graduated tax scale in this country and the "rich" pay far more than anyone else. Not only more because of higher income but a much higher % as well. And that % is on its way up.
Posted by: Mikespike

Re: It only took Obama 40 days to. - 03/04/09 04:05 PM

Please refer to the linked article.

Also, do you really think Warren Buffet would be hurt by paying the same percentage as his secretary? He's the third richest man in the world, I think he can afford to pay.

The worst offenders are the corporations however.... stir

PS Buffet mentions in the article that he DID NOT TRY FOR TAX BREAK INCENTIVES when he was taxed at 17.7% - he could have paid an even lower percentage.

Re: It only took Obama 40 days to. - 03/04/09 04:33 PM

God forbid that we should have health care results comparable to those socialist Europeans.

Quote:
Health Care

Similarly on health care, the Obama administration can learn from what works in Europe. The World Health Organization (WHO) rates European countries as having the best health care systems in the world, spending, on average, far less than the United States for universal coverage and quality results. France has the top-rated health care system, while the United States is ranked 37th - just ahead of Cuba and Slovenia. In the Czech Republic, a proposal to introduce a 30 K? co-payment per office visit nearly toppled the government, as health care is considered a basic right in the social contract.

The United States ranks 28th in the world in infant mortality, at seven deaths per 1,000 live births, tied with Poland and Slovakia, and substantially higher than Sweden (3.4 deaths), France (4.3 deaths) and Germany (4.5 deaths). In life expectancy, the United States ranks 29th, its 77 years lags behind Italy (81 years), France (80 years), Sweden (81 years) and Germany (79 years), and about the same level as South Korea (76 years) and Cuba (77 years). The United States has fewer per capita physicians, nurses and hospital beds, fewer MRI and CT scanners than the average for other advanced nations, and has the highest rate of medical errors (receiving the wrong medication, incorrect test results, a mistake in treatment or late notification about abnormal results). Due to excessively high out-of-pocket expenses, Americans are also much more likely than citizens of other nations to skip recommended follow-up care, fail to fill prescriptions and forgo doctors' visits altogether, things which exacerbate health problems and lead to preventable suffering and more expensive treatments down the road.

In addition to providing better health coverage, somehow Europe also manages to spend less. According to the WHO, the United States spends the equivalent of 16.5 percent of its economy on health care, about $6,100 per person, compared to an average 8.6 percent in EU countries. France spends just $3,500 per person, or about 10.7 percent of its economy. As Dr. Christopher Murray, director of WHO's Global Program on Evidence for Health Policy, says, "Basically, you die earlier and spend more time disabled if you're an American rather than a member of most other advanced countries."

You're good for a few eye rolls and head shakes when reading your posts, but not much else.

Your definition of scialism showed that much.




and i think you like it in the ass, but its just an assumption. Alan Keyes is a cool dude and the fact that you think he is a "wingnut" isnt surprising seeing as you have the mental capacity of a three year old....what is wrong with my definition of socialism? do you have a better one?

Calling the U.S. or anything happening here right now "socialist" would make as much sense as calling the past 8 years "good for our country"...

I've prospered and thrived in a socialist system for almost 30 years now, so I'm a little ambivalent concerning the fears of those like Dewbie. I'm wondering, though, what other countries, other than the US, do not have some sort of socialist-type support for its citizens? And of those countries, how many have sound economies right now?
