@JoeDeceiver Technically true, but far too many people, especially on the left, use it as an excuse not to seriously consider their opponents' arguments.

Gah, YouTubers are dumb. Some views DO have one side, or at least one reasonable side (care to argue for the views of NAMBLA, anyone?). It's not moronic to back the right pony, and in fact it's moronic to accept all viewpoints as valid. Some people are just tapped and some ideas are just stupid.

@JuryDutySummons Interesting user name. :-)

It's gets realy easy when you accept that the government cannot control the economy. All it can do is set the stage for the economy to success. Reduce inefficient regulation, reduce taxes, introduce smart regulation and remove "bad" players from the mix.

Investing some into research... infrastructure, etc... makes sense. However.. borrowing huge percentages of our GDP can only lead to huge inflation (and/or) high taxation (and/or) default in the long run.

uhhh , i don't disagree with any of that.

I was talking about Pen being the moron taking the one sided view.

the public option is a foot in the door to shutdown all private insurance.

typical employer provided gold plated health insurance costs ~10K per employee, the most recent bills had provisions to penalize employers 4K per employee for not providing health insurance.

it doesn't take a genius to figure out in this economic climate that employers can drop their insurance plan and force their employees into the public option and employees can do nothing. that was the goal from the begining.

it's only simple because your thinking simple. adding public health care will add more choice not limit it. private health insurance companies will still exist.... they will still have the same bank accounts and the same customers for at least unless a better choice comes along.

When it comes to the bailouts, I don't really know where to fall. On the side against them, there is the question of "How are we going to pay for all of this?" and what ramifications will arise if they fail. But on the other end, I've seen financial analysts who think that Obama still hasn't spent enough. I can't call them counter intuitive though because, really, the only way we can kick start the economy again is to pump money back into it, and no one but the government seems willing to do so.

Who said anything about Obama?

He is taking a one sided veiw which is something he says he doesn't do.

Simple as that.
