Wrong again... boy you are dumb... I NEVER said getting richer is not better... what I DID say is getting richer AT THE EXPENSE OF MIDDLE CLASS PEOPLE and THE POOR is wrong! So stop being an idiot and listen dude... if you have trouble with the English language, go and study it LOLOL

LOL You sound like a parrot for the government education system. *SQUAWK*

Break the chains the government has placed around your mind.

My side lost? Really? But I thought it was the corporations and banks and greedy rich people causing all the problems? All I hear from you is that the rich are getting richer. How is that losing? If you think getting richer is losing, no wonder you are such a failure.

Trickle down wealth is better than trickle up poverty.

I have many words for you. The Great Depression was caused by government.

I read lots of books. The Lord of the Rings was good.

Learn from history dude.

PS. Look back at the actual events and things that happened that lead up to the Great Depression. From sources like newspapers, records, and word of mouth of the ones involved. Stay away from those "books" that your government paid teachers give to you to read.

...one government agency that we need. Although not in it's current form. It needs to be destroyed and rebuilt from the ground up.

Really??? All I hear from Leftists like you is how unfair everything is and how the rich white men are getting richer and the poor non-whites are getting poorer. You bitch constantly about everything and want to change everything about America.

If what you said was even remotely true, you wouldn't be trying to change everything. "Hope and Change", remember?

The EPA is...

No... but there's hot air coming out of your mouth! I don't care what you think about guarded capitalism, but it's worked for this country... your idea of a pure capitalistic society with no checks or balances and allowing the ;private sector to control us like puppets is stupid... for eg., if the EPA didn't regulate pollutants, companies would be dumping poisons and toxins into the air and water at will... your ideology DOES NOT work... period... end of story.

[karozans]

Ooo! Excellent comeback.

Did it take all your brain power to come up with that? I think I smell something burning. Is there smoke coming out your ears?
