Improving our country's economy could be fairly simple. Stop foreign trade. Make it here, sell it here, buy it here. Stop sending out billons in foreign aide, spend the money on our own poor, & needy. Spend the money on solar power & other alternative power resources research. Make ourselves independent, self sufficient, stand alone, & fuck the outsiders! And if elected, I promise to . . . . . .

[IMaDick]

until we see our national debt go down were fucked. the economy cannot sustain the interest let alone the principle, our country is being sold out from under us by the acre and what does MF do? He fails to understand it, making him on par with 90% of the population in this country, 308 million morons!

it's not rocket science it's the same as your house on a larger scale, if your debt to income balance or the debt percentages rises over the income level you're done.

Fuck it sure is funny sitting here reading conversations from Americans that we had 15 odd years ago and being able to buy an American dollar for $0.98...

Either Obama is the stupidest person to ever hold a degree from Harvard, or he is trying to fuck up this country on purpose. I think all he really accomplished was being the first and only president of color in this century. I don't see that happening again any time soon. His presidency has been a Robin Hood affair. He gave too much to people who won't work, or work barely enough to scrape by, thinking they would suddenly change and begin to be productive citizens. By doing so, he bankrupted our country. The people who have always worked will continue to labor and the lazy fuckers with their hands out will continue to suck us dry. So much for social experimentation.

We weren't in this situation 15 years ago.
National Debt:
1990 3,233,313,451,777.25
2000 5,674,178,209,886.86
2010 13,561,623,030,891.79

While the national debt is scary as hell, I'm just worried about the trade deficit. I read an analysis stating America will lose another half million jobs this year because of the trade deficit to China. All those folks will have their hand out, too, and will lose their homes and further fuck the tax base of individual states. Good times ARE NOT around the corner. Hold on to what you have, there may not be a bunch more coming.

Well you certianly know how to talk over the heads of the liberal assholes who think we owe every fucking body a living, If this country had any sense obama would not even be allowed to finish this term let alone run for another one.

and that goes double for the liberal demorcrat congress, but hell no the people in this country sit and watch ,they don't get pissed, they don't force their represtatives to vote according to the state's desires in which they were elected, every fucking one of them should have been recalled and not allowed to vote for the stimulus in any form, they should have been recalled to the states and not allowed to vote for the healthcare package, I don't know what's wrong with people, we elected those fuckers to vote for their states according to the voters desires of that state not for themselves!

[Cracker]

Most people are unionist now and have forgotten we are a nation of states. As a union, we suck. If we assert individual state's rights, we will the keep the balance that kept us strong.

I'm also tired of the new world order trend. Most countries are fucked up. I don't want to be poor like most other countries. We have had a few million years to learn to survive as a species and a more than 5 thousand years to learn to form productive civilizations based on geographic lines. If some countries haven't a clue yet, let them learn. Don't drag us down with them.

Washington D.C. has the most higher income people living there than any other state in the union. Have you ever been to D.C. ? Tons of stripper bars galore. Its not even a state and it has more people living there that make over 200,000 per year than anywhere else. WTF does THAT tell you?

Big tits are worth the investment?

[Maggot]

That and Polititians make way to much. Along with the 100 people or more that work for each of them.

[Cracker]

Yeah. Skill and talent are undervalued here.

So the national debt at least doubled under George W. I'm not an Obama fan right now but I don't blame him for the current state of our national debt. Let's not forget Bush was at the helm when our economy started to nosedive (and when all that creative financing was occurring with mortgages) and as I recall he signed or endorsed the initial stimulus package. Oh, and he got us involved in two very expensive wars--one over weapons of mass destruction that oops, didn't exist.

I hate all politicians right now.

My husband made some comment the other night about how if you look back historically, nations rise and fall with regards to being superpowers (or even economic giants). I tuned him out after a few minutes (typical for me when he starts talking shop) but I heard enough to feel slightly depressed.

Hell ya, lets vote that fucking Bush out and elect a new President, one that will cut government waste, reduce spending,shrink the size of the federal government, stand for freedom and individual rights, knock down the national debt, be kind to business so that they will hire and get the unemployment down, whadda say sound like a good Idea to you?

and then lets do this to any fucking president that does not do those things lets throw the bum out in the street and start over until we find one that does.

We paid off WWII around 1997.

I remember why we went to war. Bush did the right thing. Mass graves. 'Nuff said. Plus, we have to remind the world every 50 years that we can kick their ass. You can't just *say* you are a superpower. You have to back that shit up.

The Chinese don't have enough boats to get their uneducated forces over here, so they will stay put and just grumble at us. Plus, we owe them money. Blowing up their biggest money maker would be bad form.

The increase you see between 1990 and 2000 is comparable to the trend over the last 100 years. The tripling you see in the last 10 years is due mainly to Owebama bailing out his homies. At least we get to blow shit up with war increases. People get all pissy when you blow up government housing projects.

Aknow said something one time about how we should be spending our money teaching people here to not be fatasses. I think we should let them die if they don't know any better. Dogs will eat until they are sick. People shouldn't.

Come on now don't be so hard on username, she had a good idea, it's time for Bush to get the fuck out of the whitehouse. we have had enough of that shit, we need to elect a President that isn't just talking shit, one that will keep his promises and not let the fucking communists into the whitehouse as czars and shit like that.

She's right, it's time to get that stupid ass Bush out of office and elect a real president!

Really? He had amazing powers then since he wasn't even President during the majority of that time. I think I recall now...the bailout was signed by Bush, right? Stimulus by Obama?

Jesus Dick. STFU already. I already said I'm not happy with pretty much ANY politician these days. IMO, the problem is there's nobody who sits in the middle (which is where most of us lie) because there's no fucking money there! You're either right-wing, Christian, fanatics or left-wing, liberal idiots. I'm right in the middle but I don't have a viable candidate because there's no viable (i.e., funded) middle party.

Do you see the difference now? If you do the math, the numbers are startling. OVER THREE FUCKING TIMES GREATER. THREE FUCKING TIMES. We have been at war all those years.

Not yelling at you. Just sayin'. Let the math speak for itself. Obama is a fucking idiot.
