So Guy the not great, it doesn't matter who is elected president, but rather who control congress. Fair enough -- but you do realize that the 'Democrat' majorities in the House and Senate when they had them (which wasn't all the time at all) was dependent on 'Southern Democrats' -- now those folks are Teapublicans today -- and back then were really not that much different than the Southern Teapublicans today -- a collection of angry white men who harbored shall we say, less that friendly feelings toward non-whites. |

'Nothing stopped you from being A Mitt." Two things stopped me from being a Mitt. My father was not named George, and my moral values would be very stressed by that kind of self serving behavior.

Now, I'm off to work for hours 51-63 today Um, actually Dull, much of my job is just that. Hot, hard work where you bust your knuckles bloody, stand on your feet the whole time, and work six hour stretches without a single break, lifting up to 100 lbs repeatedly, and moving things that weigh as much as 2000lbs without motorized equipment... No AC, hotter than outside, I can go on and on. Don't you go running your mouth about what you don't know about, especially to a guy who hasn't had a day off in 20 days. =P #resist |

GODless/Atheist Libbers are HYPOCRITES and Do Not Deserve anyone's vote. As you are an atheist, you're being hypocritical as you point out what you PERCEIVE as hypocrisy. |

Now, I'm off to work for hours 51-63 today Which SETIzens have you met? Smelled their sweat, or lack thereof? Ever walk in cow dung? I have, smart guy. Ever walk 4 hours to get home after work, through deep lake-effect snow, wearing out your shoes, your feet wet and bleeding? I have, smart guy. Ever step on a stray nail when tearing out old parts of a house in order to reconstruct? I have, Mr. Prof. Dull Hard Working Smart Guy. Your brain has been working too hard, trying to assume what the rest of us have and have not experienced. Quit slacking and get back to REAL Work. ;-) |

Yes, let's look at the Greeks. Who are far from happy because of the austerity measures that have driven the country into a deep recession. People are committing suicide over there and a lot of them are just giving up on the Capitalist system altogether and going back to bartering and farming. I guess there is a shining example of why extreme cutting back on government spending makes things worse, not better. Same for the UK. The government cuts have deepened the recession and have been a disaster for the country. Those who wish to learn from history, so that they do not repeat it, are calling for more government spending such as Roosevelt did to get America out of the Great depression. This is the policy that Obama wishes to follow and as it worked last time it seems to make sense to do it this time. I am afraid I do not understand why the Republican party is against something that has been shown to work and I do understand why they are calling for a solution that has been shown not to work. This seems highly illogical to me. Reality Internet Personality |

This is the policy that Obama wishes to follow and as it worked last time it seems to make sense to do it this time. Doing what is quoted above IS EXACTLY WHAT THE RICH WANT. Do YOU NOT GET THAT? It will make The Rich RICHER and the poor Poorer. As Government Spending has increased, the INEQUALITY between People has INCREASED. Your Libber Way is making the RICH RICHER. Not seeing that is beyond being blind. R & R, Bless Them, want to Reverse The Trend, not Compound It.

I'll make a prediction here. No matter who gets in, things will not change much. There will be some tinkering around the edges to make it look like something is being done but neither side has the gumption to do what HAS to be done. Romney is well aware of the civil unrest that will occur if he implements all his proposed welfare cuts. Obama knows that Congress will never pass the legislation needed to give the banking regulators the teeth they need to pull the banks back into line and reform the tax rates. In a high cost of living society such as the US, you can't have people working long hours at third world wages just to survive (that's if they can find a job in the first place). If nearly 50% of the population have an income so low they are below the minimum tax rate, things are getting pretty desperate. It gets to the stage where people have to indulge in illegal activities just to keep a roof over their heads and send their kids to school. Or they take to the streets. Having seen the extreme response of the authorities to the peaceful "Occupy" movement, I worry what will happen if the riots get serious. It has happened before in other countries and nearly happened in the US during the Great Depression. It's not there yet, but America is approaching the conditions of England in the 1700's. When the jails are full and you have prison hulks floating in the Hudson river look out. As shown on these boards difficult times result in a widening polarisation of society with each side blaming the other for the problems. What the US needs at this time is a "Great Leader". Unfortunately, neither of the current candidates seems to fit that description. T.A. |
