@ModernMarine1 thats going to be tough, most local businesses dont have the capital to start up on their own. we dont have pure capitalism, probably never did. Also every business in america wants a tax hand out. so while the GOP maybe against loans in some cases a tax break is the same action just in a different form. I think govt should have a role in business but not a role that selects winners or losers. the govt should set a goal and if a business met it then incentives can be discusses.

We need to stop relying so heavily on the government to try and fix our economy. Government should probably be mostly concerned with infrastructure, justice and regulation, and defense. It should set a fertile ground for a private economy, NOT try and BE the economy. Right now a huge part of the economy is actually based on government money, or government loaned money. I think this is not a good thing.

Everything McCain said is pretty much wrong. He wanted to spend government money to try and prop up housing values. Obama tried to spend government money for a bunch of federal make-work jobs.

With Obama's plan at least we got some roads and potholes fixed.  McCain would have just have just tried to prop up home values.....It would have been a disaster.

We were right to Elect Obama over McCain at this critical time in history.

But now we need a little bit more Ron Paul.

He invaded Libya, to be sure, because he asserted U.S. influence over it in a direct martial way.

@TheAdjundantReflex Come on dude, using misleading rhetoric like that is not fair to him or the people trying to make a decision. *sigh* I just thought you statement was really misleading.
