@TheMultiflip

Supply Side Economics has some truth to it.

What Arthur failed to explain here is it that it "failed" because Bush and our government SPENT the revenue it generated.

Fart Laugher is a joke, but his nutty Reagan butt-sniffin' ideas are actually coming back in 2012!

[H1TMANactual]

@tonyg0123 That's probably true.

[tonyg0123]

Bill has Art Laffer on here, but he refuses to put Peter Schiff on his show?!?! Oh, probably because Schiff would make a fool out of this Bill Maher clown and Bill knows it.

60% of mortgage holders have less than 10% equity. Housing is set to drop and when 60% of mortgage holders are underwater, that will be too much and the dollar will be over. With hyperinflation, gov't will no longer be able to support housing through cheap (0% rates + QE) and hyperinflation is economically devastating which will cause Americans to become much poorer and housing to drop 70%-80%. Silver will gain min. 3,000%. Bottom line, sell your house and buy silver before everyone else does.

idiot Tim's mind was blown to shreds when he realized that the Democrats were the racist party of the south.

Arthur Laffer thought the housing boom was the result of real economic growth and thus thought it would last a few years, and he was wrong back in 07, 08.

LOL progressive movements?

Standing in front of a bunch of buildings holding a sign is not gonna do sh!t.

I vote, I donate to campaigns (Ron Paul), I work, I save my money, and I support my family.

Remind me what's wrong with that?

Also... pretty funny you list off a bunch of egghead, professor economists as a reason of truth yet I guess you ignore the words of our founding fathers and the constitution? They warned us of this day and you "progressives" are too dumb to listen

[Odysseus087]

@canefan17 if the protestors on wall st were wishing for a crisis, like you are, then they wouldn't be protesting. instead, they would be at home waiting for shit to hit the fan. instead, they are hoping to avert a crisis by trying to change things for the better. and all those "keynesians" you talk about are actually the intellectual leaders of the progressive movement, which is what occupy wall street represents.

@Odysseus087

What does that have to do with anything? lol

I bet you 95% of the protesters on Wall Street right now have never heard of John Meynard Keynes.

[Odysseus087]

@canefan17 yeah a dying breed for sure. i guess that's why occupy wall street is twice as popular as the tea party among the american public.
