Can you hear me now?

But of course, the libtards hate capitalism and the evil corporations. They're cheering on Dear Leader as he brings America to her knees.

Subject: Stimulus Bill Understood
Importance: High

Shortly after class, an economics student approaches his economics
professor and says, “I don’t understand this stimulus bill. Can you explain it
to me?”

The professor replied, “I don’t have any time to explain it at my
office, but if you come over to my house on Saturday and help me with
my weekend project, I’ll be glad to explain it to you.” The student
agreed.

At the agreed-upon time, the student showed up at the professor’s
house. The professor stated that the weekend project involved his backyard
pool.

They both went out back to the pool, and the professor handed the
student a bucket. Demonstrating with his own bucket, the professor
said, “First, go over to the deep end, and fill your bucket with as
much water as you can.” The student did as he was instructed.
The professor then continued, “Follow me over to the shallow end, and
then dump all the water from your bucket into it.” The student was
naturally confused, but did as he was told.

The professor then explained they were going to do this many more
times, and began walking back to the deep end of the pool.

The confused student asked, “Excuse me, but why are we doing this?”

The professor matter-of-factly stated that he was trying to make the
shallow end much deeper.

The student didn’t think the economics professor was serious, but
figured that he would find out the real story soon enough.

However, after the 6th trip between the shallow end and the deep end,
the student began to become worried that his economics professor had
gone mad.

The student finally replied, “All we’re doing is wasting valuable time
and effort on unproductive pursuits. Even worse, when this process is
all over, everything will be at the same level it was before, so all
you’ll really have accomplished is the destruction of what could have
been truly productive action!”

The professor put down his bucket and replied with a smile,
“Congratulations You now understand the stimulus bill.”

Good to see how all that “hope and change” is playing out in the markets.
Too bad so many “freepers” are stuck in a “blame bush” rut.

Oh, they hear and they know. They voted for this! WE are the ones who care, not them. They want to destroy this country.

Be careful, a Libtard might report this “socio-economically hateful” thread to the SS/FBI...

I rescued my 401k last week. I recommend everyone else do the same before O gets a hold of it.

The liberal/leftist school teachers and professors are seeing their 403b retirement plans crash and burn. The ones I know refuse to face the truth, they still blame Bush. I doubt that they will ever blame the Democrats, especially Obama. According to them he is doing everything he can but the Republicans and Bush just left him such a mess.

Jim,

FR is a good place to let off steam, but calling liberals retarded is not going to help us take back Congress or the Presidency, even if it is true.

My parents are retired, and my dad is worried about their plummeting portfolio. I am going to have a serious talk with my mother (an Obama supporter) about he has crushed their savings. We should all make earnest efforts to persuade the liberals who can be “saved”.

If the libtards hold on to their 401Ks until they become .001Ks, it’s fine with me.

Hard to argue with a mindset that thinks that it doesn’t matter how, for example, healthcare will be rationed, but

IT’LL ALL BE FREE!

Older folks voted for the promise of someone to take care of them forever.

What they got was a early painful death sentence.

That’s why it’s so important to destroy the economy now, as quickly as possible. They can easily get away with blaming GWB for about 6 months, enough time to put the pieces in place for a total collapse of capitalism in America. Then Obbie can say that capitalism failed and socialism is the only thing that can save us.

Brack cares about 3 things only.

Tanking the American economy.

Offending our strongest allies.

Strengthening our enemies.

Psssst....he’s Kenyan, not American.
