we need to get rid of the fed

we need to listen to people

that know what happened in Germany

they want it all over again

[brder4ev]

The federal reserve was instituted with one goal in mind, a one world government with one central bank , control by a few and poverty for the rest. Free trade is a sham , a true free and open economy would be a fair trade agreements.. If other countries refuse to import an equal amount from us , well then we just simply stop importing goods from them. As long as we have lobbyist in WASHINGTON D.C. we will not have honest politicians is what I see. why does not the fed have to be transparent?

way to dodge the question with any meaningful remark. Alan actually believes the crap he is spewing, that's the sad part. You don't have to work too hard to make him look like a jackass Naomi.

If you studied some real data and find thats amazing for high school grads.

[louiethegreater]

@Salvysahagun If that is true you are poor, and should not be attempting to teach others anything. Thirteen dollars an hour places you just slightly out of poverty. Eat plenty of beans, that is what your wages affords you.

A resuregence of Adam Smiths Empiralist doctrine.

i live by myself.

[louiethegreater]

@Salvysahagun Well to each his own, I guess as long as you live with mom and dad you will not starve. Before I make an issue out of Neo-liberalism. Would you explain what it is to me?

[Salvysahagun]

@louiethegreater

$13 an hour is a lot for someone right out of high school and is $4 above mininium.

America has never really embraced Neo-Liberalism. We talked about it but never really "did" it.

Doing nothing but shooting insults is not debate. I don't think you realize that most nations hate American people. not just the policies. You my friend are a prime example

[louiethegreater]

@Salvysahagun The world hates Americans because, the American State Department is attempting to force globalization and neo-liberalism upon them. I take it that you believe $13.an hr. is a lot of money. Wow, you call me poor, that's funny. Allow me to make it clear,-- the only one I am attacking here is your ignorance.

[Salvysahagun]

@louiethegreater

I was making $13 an hour at peak.

Stop being ignorant, this is why when I travel the world they always hate Americans. Professionally and Socially.

I'm to busy launching my venture to waste time with poor rednecks who where tired of picking on Illegal Latinos and now want to attack asians.

[louiethegreater]

@Salvysahagun Yes, you had minimum wage jobs in retail. No need to acquire skills as a machinist, tool and die maker, NC machine operator or programmer, Wire EDM Machine operator or programmer. No need for mid and upper management training because all those jobs are in Asia. Just exactly what skills are you working on, none are needed by industry. I repeat myself --- you have been sold the bridge --- you are just to naive to realize it.

@louiethegreater

Please read "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki.

I've already held a few jobs and have connections is other industries. Juts working on skills right now.

Your ignorance is quite apauling, perhaps you should research your oppenent before you make assumptions.

Unemployment is 20-25%. Not quite 30%.

so hows is your living wage job? Still in a virgin in your moms apartment louie?
