  • Hey guys, I'm from 2 and a 1/2 years in the future. $1.65 trillion deficit, the Patriot Act got reauthorized, and we have 70,000 troops in Afghanistan. But bin Laden's dead, so... yeah.

  • Here is a plan to create 10 million jobs instantly

    The plan basically is...: the fed pays 20% of the salary, the employer pays 80% of the salary and at tax time the employee pays back 25% of the salary to the fed . Then bingo you have 10,000,000 jobs that only cost the fed $68,000,000,000.00, less than one tenth what they paid the Banks. However you now have 10,000,000 people with $34,000.00 in spending power to stimulate the economy and the deficit is lowered by 25%.

  • Because that what all "good" politicians do. They are masters of the arts of contradiction, ambiguity, subterfuge, distraction, and propaganda. People just assume that politicians tell the truth. They're really no more than snake-oil salesmen with fine suits and hats. They create illusions. See this very interesting video. You might enjoy it and it really is quite illuminating (it's by NufffRespect):

  • If he does then why does he preach fiscal responsibility yet has already spent trillions in his first month in office. He contradicts himself over and over again.

  • Great idea!

  • I believe he does.

  • He now speaks of fiscal responsibility after he spends a trillions dollars.

    Obama is soooo full of crap I can smell it when he speaks and I have never seen him in person. Someone please let me know when this modern day "Bozo the Clown" is no longer in charge.

  • Legalize marijuana thats all the stimulus this country needs we spend way too much housing people for possession tax it fine for it but stop over crowding the prisons for it

  • They do what ever they want plainly right in front of your face. It's like some abuser repeatedly slapping you in the face and continuously taking (stealing) your money like you're some kind of imbecile. It never ends until it all runs out.

    We keep telling you all;

    #1 To cut government spending in half.

    #2 To cut government employees wages in half.

    #3 To investigate illegal nepotism.

    #4 To stop giving money over seas.

    #5 To stop Illegal Immigration.

    #6 To Regulate Trade Intelligently.

    WTF!
