Also, Anti-Bubba182 has posted some excellent detailed information in #87.
Denial is not only a river, but obviously a short memoried, angry river! 2 years does not a party history make!
One day, when this communist regime is history and the country turns 75% conservative, a lot of Abu Bama’s crap and manipulation will see the light.
Eventually, Communist, Socialist, Progressive, Marxist, terrorist sympathizing ...(fill in new names...) institutions SHOULD BE OUTLAWED. Enough “freedom and due process” for our beloved country’s enemies who’re using its freedoms against her very foundation.
I know that some patriots will object to even temporary loss of freedoms, but saving and protecting the country is paramount.
You don’t want to see me POTUS with absolute power for just six months! I’ll give our enemies the country they longed for, just for six months until I clean them out, completely.
They need no stinkin’ Constitution and so do I, FOR JUST SIX MONTHS!
I’ve given up hope that big businesses will *ever* hire workers again. They are sitting on huge piles of cash, more liquidity than they’ve ever had, and they can borrow more at rates close to nothing. Then they can m,ake more money trading it in derivatives and tranches than they could if they actually *did* anything with their core business. They have no need for their businesses anymore - all they need are their money managers.
They don’t need people for manufacturing. Because of outsourcing and NAFTA, it’s far cheaper to manufacture in countries where the labor rate is $.10 per hour, where child labor is legal, and where prisoners (especially “political prisoners”) are hired out by the State and receive nothing of their earnings. (Think China.)
They don’t need us for “customer service,” or most IT tasks, either. Those, too, can be outsourced to the great “farms” in India.
Produce is grown in Mexico or on farms where illegal immigrants are paid less than minimum. Trucking on taxpayer-supported highways, by diesel-powered trucks from taxpayer-subsidized oil companies or taxpayer-subsidized rail, means that it’s cheaper to grow lettuce 3000 miles away and ship it, then it is to grow it in the next county and ship it.
They don’t need *us*. But we still need to live. The only way to make money is to start your own business. We’re going to have to develop services and goods that do not really on Big Businesses.
The problem is that so much of the system that we need - and that used to be independent forty years ago - has been destroyed by buy-ups from huge corporations. We don’t have any independent hardware stores anymore - you have to get all your materials ay a Home Depot, for instance. Same with computer parts, for our business - but that industry is *completely* Chinese/Indian, except for on-site repair and care (like us). But they’re trying to find a way to get rid of that, too.
Face it: it’s gotten beyond anything that a simple change in administration could do. How would a McCain administration have handled this employment collapse?
False. In August/September 2009, all 40 Republican Senators voted against cloture. All 60 Demonrats voted for cloture. That's why it didn't pass until Franken was seated.
Correct about Reagan. Non-defense spending increased by 1% per year under Reagan.
False for G.W. Bush. He added Medicare D, prescription drugs, which added another ca. 15% to Medicare. That's big money. Also "No Child Left Behind". Added 40% to Dept of Education spending. Have you noticed how much better government schools are in the last five years? No?
My statements stand
1. Democrats created almost all government agencies.
2.
What you and your liberal media call “increase in Republican government spending” is really several media lies like :
a. INFLATION over 8 years of Bush (how is much is that genius? well first subtract that INFLATION from your liberal media numbers). Then subtract population growth, growth of the economy etc. and you have an actual decrease in your “education” over Republican years. In fact many liberals whined about that decrease.
b. Increases in military spending and wars after 9/11
c. you democrats can only point to a couple of supposed non-defense programs and spin that. Yeah that's over 8 years you spinner. and Bush and Republicans eliminated hundreds of government programs.
d. most spending is actually mandatory spending mandated by democrat laws.
e. Bush nor the 15% RINOS don't represent all Republicans. Republicans had only a simple majority and a few times Democrats and the few RINOS allied with Bush to pass one or 2 programs in 8 years and that's what you used to slander all Republicans. Well even this alliance of Democrats and Bush couldn't pass Amnesty for illegals as Republicans stopped that. It wasn't democrats as they would get all those votes from illegals.
Oh i Have much more but that alone refutes your liberal media spin and lies.
That you and many democrats concentrate on 2 programs from Bush over 8 years and spin that so much at a time when the socialists (the democrats) are destroying the economy an America , well that shows you democrats are insane . You fool no one. I know SOME of the spin and lies the media used . I figured it out. but others for whatever reason don't listen to your and your ilk's lies and we all are going to destroy your democrats party . so keep wasting you time parroting liberal media lies . who cares. Even the liberal media can't change our minds . We are going to crush your democrats in 23 days and there is not a thing you or your liberal mainstream media can do about it.
The liberal media said Bush (Republicans) increased government spending greatly or grew government.
That is a lie.
Take your liberal media numbers then subtract from that inflation over 8 years, population growth over 8 years (education , social security,medicare medicaid , HUD ,welfare all democrat created programs : the population over 8 years in these programs alone would account for your “Increase” in government spending )
military spending increases, 2 wars , etc, multiply those factors as they do but a small mind like that of you democrats doesn’t understand that and you have an overall decrease in government spending.
A media number you and your media say is 40% . yeah subtract the multiplied effect of Inflation over 8 years, population growth , economic growth, wars, military spending and you have less growth in actual terms as the number of government employees as a % of population didn’t increase during the Bush years.
What about these things like inflation don’t you get?
no one cares what you say. I know the truth. Even your liberal media that has trillions of times more power than you and your little group cannot change our minds. We will crush democrats in 23 days! go cry in your soup!
I’m happy cause democrats will be defeated and humiliated!
