US citizen's economic concerns - 29 Sept 08

And I doubt there is a national debt. Remember, the bigger the lie the more people accept it as true. Why is the media so interested on you finding out that there is a National debt? If you learned how money gets created then you know that it is almost impossible for a national debt. They are scaring you in to giving your money freely so you can "save" the country. "the most basic form of mind control is repetition." THIS IS PROPAGANDA!

[mercurio0000]

Credit Cards, debit card, checks, loans are here to enslave you. Get rid of them all. Use money(notes) so you can have some privacy too. With your signature you create the amount you are to borrow. They don't take the money you are borrowing from me or anyone else. Your signature creates instantly the $1000 you want to borrow. And then they charge you interest in money you created. The money was not there until you signed. So what's their loses? None! It's all a SCAM!

[mercurio0000]

He is worried about the 401k scam. He should have learned about the 401k scam as soon as he got into it. It is a legal SCAM. It's basically a "let me keep your hard earned money (notes) now and use it now on what I want and we give you some back when you are 65 or so if you don't die first and if the market don't steal it first". If you are smart you will reduce your 401k contribution to 0% now. Get your money(notes) out of the banks fast, fast, fast! Guy silver or gold. Do not use credit.

didnt bush administration set aside billions of dollars for the iraq war that supposedly to be used for iraq's development but were embezzled one way or another by those big cronies related coorporations.

this 700 bil bail out do really smell fishy

[triumphprint]

i'm glad the bailout did not go through, let the economy stablize itself.

[DrewDawg50]

Hey, maybe the shareholders should have enforced rules on THEIR business.

People these days aren't even real investors, they are just money spenders because they are stupid people.

Here some easy logic to help you get started.

"you reap what you sow"

If you can't something, don't buy it. Anyways, these houses were never owned by the people, they were owned by the bank. People are under a rather large illusion if they think they own something they haven't paid for.

I doubt the average person on Time Square is the equivalent to the average person in the country. Business people may be stooling in their pants over this, but the average person has been feeling the economic pressures, brought about through this administration, for some time.

poor poor americans ...

the 700 bil bail out plan is just a plan to encourage coorporates failure -

and what would the 700 bil do ... enriching the coorporates ceos even more instead of the ave people?

[tal987]

my god....these people need get back on the turnip truck they just fell out of...unbelieveable the way Americans have been dumbed down to believe all the fear the Bush regime want to press into all of us...wasn't his brother involved in the first bank bail-out years ago?...have we learned nothing?..the treasury has been looted for the war...their coming for what's left...

[Voidka]

The people interviewed are a misrepresentation of what Americans truly think. It is very easy to pick and choose people that side with a bias opinion for a bias news report.

[tal987]

Yea, I guess that's why in a big city like NY, they had to go to Times Square to find two tourists to interview...I believe 90% of NY's are against...if the percentage is not higher...

[covertcovenant]

no more bailing out the corporate elites!!! Say no more to neocon socio-economic elites!

[PeaceProfit]

"Of the people, by the people, for the people"

We-The-People-No*Compromise.

[Thorpean]

Well, now what? This is a world problem and there's no plan as to what is going to be done. Thats the biggest worry of all right now.

[1776freedomfighter]

People are laid off here too. Thank you to all people in congress that voted NO. The ones that voted NO listened to the voters.

These peoples are Bush voters, as stupid as they come. There is no help for these brainwashed sheeple.

GW has done nothing right from the first day that he walked into that White House until now.

Let the stock market crash. It's better than having a 700 billion dollar bailout bill shoved up taxpayers asses. Shove it up theirs instead.

[Kelvin701Lakeland]

opp, wrong rating i gave. Read up on derivative. This bailout ShOULD NOT PASS at all cost. Let it collapse and go from there. We survived before and we will again. Get rid of the bankers. Average americans need to do a lot of of reading/study. The bailout was only a temporaly fix, not solution. It will make the problem much larger in the future.

[FortoneND]

I am guessing there's gonna be a blame on the democrats soon. There's too much credit out there, the economy needs to lick it's wounds and endure the recession.

[mrzack888]

somebody tripped up? stupid bush voter.

[tal987]

Imagine if Bush had won in his attempt to privative Social Security?...that fund would now be gone as well!...from now on in...we just need to adopt a policy of doing the opposite of every suggestion he makes...this is likely a way to make up for the Social Security funds we would not allow them to steal...

Since 2001 US economy is poor but US companies have billions of dollars to allocate for IT projects despite getting bankrupt. The IT projects typically go to Asian owned consulting companies both in USA and overseas. US gets more job visa workers from Asian countries into USA and gives them jobs and Greencards and Citizenship. From where this money is coming while many US manufacturing units were shut down and many born americans have no jobs. Who is sabotaging America?
